Bottle. Pours a hazy lemonade yellow with a large dense white head. Soft spicy aroma with some citrus and wheat present. Flavors of lemon and spice dominate the flavor. Full bodied and very smooth with some carbonation on the tip of the tongue make this one super drinkable. What can’t the monks of St. Bernard do?

Bottle. Pours murky gold with a thick creamy head. Aroma of lemon twist and yeast. Flavor is quite freshing. Mild spices, wheaty, citrus. Low carbonation and a bit watery. Not my favorite style of beer, but I enjoyed this one. Very easy to drink.

Very thick, foamy head. Pours dark brown and cloudy. Feels very smooth in the mouth, goes down easy. Slight hint of lemon. A good Belgian White, but not as flavorful as Hoegaarden.

Bottle at beerbistro. Pours a cloudy yellow with a large fluffy white head. Nice lacing. Aroma is yeasty, spicy, sweet and fruity. Flavour of yeast, bready malt, spices, tart lemon, more fruit and an average bitter finish. Nice lacing. Medium bodied. I expected more, it coming from this brewery, but it’s still pretty good and kind of refreshing.

11.2 oz bottle: Pale straw pour with a sizeable top. I was expecting the same rocky cap that other St. B beers portray, but this head slowly sank into a thin film on top. The nose is wheaty with a nice balance of coriander and sweet orange. The body lacks carbonation, but still drinks nice. More sweet malts are displayed, with a nice peppering of spices throughout. A healthy dose of carbonation would help to define the complexities of the body, but as is everything kind of mushes together. This is not bad by any stretch of the imagination, but some tweaking could make it great.

Some citrusy flavors along with some light spicyness. Not a beer I fell in love with but I might pick up another bottle at some point

Slightly cloudy straw yellow with a 2 inch dense white head. It’s the color of cream soda. Aroma of bright wheat malt, and orange peel. Medium strength flavor, thats is sweet malty and citrus. A really strong citrus beer. It taste like theres a half of an orange squeezed in there. Dry palate and finish. A little watery. Average lacing.
