Jun 24, 2006 From the clear bottle it’s appearance is of course no surprise - clear amber with a hard won and short lived head. Smells of crystal malt and some medicinal characteristic which must be from at least one of the hop additions. Actually, it’s got an aroma that somehow reminds of Orval - maybe it’s a bit of olive, but doesn’t really inspire me the way Orval does. A little bitterness in the flavour, but it’s a little shallow and doesn’t quite carry the beer. The sweetness is a pretty good level, allowing the 500ml bottle to be finished without it being too cloying. For a 6.5% the body is quite light. Nice carbonation level. Weak toffee on the aftertaste. Surprised this is labelled as a bitter, because it seems a bit light in that department, but it’s still a reasonable drop.

Jun 21, 2006 A beautiful copper colour, but loses points as it has no head whatsoever! Light spice on the nose with hints of fruit, but still a bit lacking. Flavourwise it is medium bodied, with a reasonable hop presence, there is a bit of crisp acidity on the finish. I have to say I find this a bit bland & nondescript...nothing to shout about really.

Dark amber color, fairly small tan head. Served very cold unfortunately. Fresh hoppy scent. A whole lot of taste, fruity and with good bitterness. A bit bitter aftertaste.

May 16, 2006 Bottle, 500ml. An amber-coloured pour with particles of yeast, despite storing it upright and pouring carefully. Aromas of malt and cirtus fruits. A hoppy taste with some citrus, caramel and dough. Slightly sweet. Light to average carbonation. A nice hoppy finish. Nice enough, but a little boring to be honest.
