22oz. bottle. Spicy, fruity aroma, lightly sweet and sugary with grassy, peppery, woody, herbal tones and crackery malts. Clear deep golden color with an uneven, lasting head and fine lace. Flavor is spicy, bitter and mostly dry, plenty of yeast spice throughout, along with faint touches of honeyish malt sweetness, citrus, pine and peppery alcohol. Effervescent and lightly acidic on the palate, body is full. After a year in the cellar, this is still quite hoppy and bold, very big and flavorful, which is fairly impressive.

Nov 29, 2009 Just found this one at a local beer shop. Probably been at a distro the last year. It aged very well. Complex pleasant nose. Smooth rich taste. A great Belgian. Very drinkable.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle from Crown#6, in vertical with 07, and 09, shared with the Bros. Pours crystal clear pale golden with elegant rising bubbles and minimal white head. Nose is dry citrus belgian yeast. Flavor is strong belgian yeast with some orange and lemon. Hops round out the background of this crisp refreshing brew. Not bad.

Nov 15, 2009 Poured a pale orange with a thin white head. Aroma is very nice, with a lot of fruitiness along with grassy and earthy hop. Apple and pearlike aromas were most noticable to me. Flavor is spicy yeast, a bit of the aforementioned fruitiness, and a lot of alcohol. The alcohol seemed too harsh for the flavors to me. It seemed to drown out a lot of the better things I was expecting from the aroma. I didn’t care for this one nearly as much as I did for 09.09.09.

Nov 10, 2009 Pours a clear golden orange color with a thick two finger foam head that quickly fades into a lasting ring. Sporadic spots of lacing.
Sweet estery golden fruit aroma with hints of golden apple, grape, pear and banana. Slight alcohol presence with some peppery zesty spice and earthy hops.
Spicy, yeasty medium body with a lot of sweet estery fruit notes, alcohol and citrus earthy hops. Sweet golden fruit notes, especially apple and pear with a decent amount of alcohol warmth and a nice dry hoppy finish.

Nov 5, 2009 Pours into the glass gold with an enormous white head. Aroma has little hop aroma and a bit of a vinegar like scent. I think this is possibly an infected bottle.
