goldtwins (4078), Nesconset, New York, USA Nov 3, 2004 Poured golden with a medium white head. Aromas of barnyard, leather, and sourness. Flavors are complex citrusy, sour, spicy, and bitter. Medium bodied, fizzy carbonation and a crisp finish. CaptainCougar (5379), Rockville, Maryland, USA Oct 22, 2004 Pours a mild cloudy golden with a thick lacy white head. Aroma is loaded with dry Belgian malts. Dry, semi-sweet body has a powerful lingering floral hop quality, but could use more Belgian malty balance. An interesting style to say the least and fairly well done, but I’m not sure if it couldn’t use some tweaking. skaughty (621), Marietta, Georgia, USA Oct 21, 2004 Updated: Oct 23, 2004Bold horseblanket aroma, with a layer of sour on top. Flavor strikes hard with some sour lambic and some biting witbier characteristics. The finish is amazingly crisp, dry and short (just like Orval). This is an excellent (albeit rare) potable. MrDick (277), San Francisco, California, USA Mar 24, 2004 gabf'03 Cloudy pour with spicy aroma. An evolving, tannin taste that is sour and woody. Evolves and finishes better when it warms. ace1317 (4), Durham, North Carolina, USA does not count Feb 4, 2004 Excellent, almost creamy mouthfeel. Almost a translucent light orange appearance. Excellent beer overall, tastes very similar to Brewer's Art Pale Ale. Jayb0 (750), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA Nov 12, 2003 excellent beer. dusty, lemony, yeast and citrus undercurrents, spicy. A lot going on and all of it good. Good length. Volgon (2487), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Oct 7, 2003 GABF 2003: Dark amber color with a good white head. Spicy malt aroma, gets less sweet as you swallow and ends dry with a touch of sweetness. dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Oct 6, 2003 GABF '03 Excellent beer overall.It did lack head retention,but it fruity and malty in the nose.Mouthfeel was very smooth and silky,finishing dry in flavor.
