Apr 23, 2009 750 ml. bottle. Pours a very opaque orange-brown color. Almost the color of apple cider. Huge, rocky white head. Big pear notes, a little booze, yeast, and candy sweetness in the nose. High carbonation but it is very fine. Light, dry mouthfeel. Reminds of a hard cider in many ways. Fruity with a nice touch of bitterness on the palate. I didn’t get the resinous hop quality or the strong citrus notes they suggest on the label. It seems that they have blended together quite nicely. A dry and bitter finish. Different and fun to drink. Definitely worth a try!

Apr 17, 2009 Bottle thanks to 17thfloor. Pours a clear orange with a beige creamy head. Yeasty creamy nose that’s soapy with orange citrus becoming ever more dirty. Dirty earthy herbal flavors. Oranges soapy and dirty. Um. .. wha happened? not good, gonna have to drain pour this one.

Apr 14, 2009 How have I sat on this bottle for so long?... Hazy orange pour fizzy off white head and a thick drippy lace. Green apple and brett on the nose. Fruit flavor (banana) with a tarty twist. Dry finish

Apr 10, 2009 bottle corked and caged poured an amber in color with a nice fizzy off white head that left a nice swirling at the surface. aroma has Belgian yeast, sweetness, hops, basement funk, and some ripe fruit. mouth feel is medium and the carbonation frothy. flavor has a well malted core, Belgian yeast, light spice, and some bitter hops. there is definitely both American and Belgian components here but neither seems to take the lead.

Apr 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to 17thfloor. Clear amber with large long lasting white head. Aroma is funky, brett, a little bad infection, urinal cake. Dirty flavor, bread, kind of pissy. Medium to light body with light carbonation. Meh, I remembered this being better.

Apr 2, 2009 Bottled @ jbrus. Hazy orange color, short head, some lacing. Aroma and taste remind me of Orval. Nicely bitter, obvious dry hopped taste with some Brett sourness. I quite like it.

does not count  Apr 1, 2009 Fantastic brew! I opened this beer last week for the third time and have cravings all the time. (Maybe that’s the alcoholism) Light in color, well balanced, banana, and other fruits are present. Tommie really shines thru this one.

Mar 31, 2009 Bottled @ Jbrus’. Aroma has hops, yeast, barnyard and some apple in it. Hazy, orange coloured beer with an off-white head. The taste is yeasty, a bit sharp, citric. Wasn’t too impressed.
