| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 15, 2005 Bottle... Hazy golden ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Great retention. Yeasty aroma with lots of bread dough, Red Delicious apple and just a hint of banana. The flavor is lightly Flemish with sweet plum. Not overly spiced. Medium-bodied and very creamy with pillow-soft carbonation. Mid-length, rich, doughy finish. Fairly dry. Props to Matta for sharing his bottle. Great brew! Bov (5478), Bienne, Switzerland

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2004 Hazy orange, faint greenish shine; good yellowish head, slightly irregular. Vanilla, alcohol, grassy nose. Alcohol and burnt caramel determine the character. If "Zatte" (=drunk) was the idea, it's on the spot. But this is far from easily drinkable. Yet reasonably refreshing. Full, slightly slick mouthfeel. Alcoholwarming. Straw/hayflavour in the aftertaste. Quite decent beer, technically excellent. But the sweet, alcoholic taste makes it pretty difficult to enjoy fully.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Feb 3, 2008 Bottle courtesy of sonah. Pours amber with a nice white head. Smells of sweet malt, sugar, citrus, some tarte undertones. Tastes of dry malt with some nice orange undertones, pepper, apples, lots of malt character. Mouthfeel is thick and full bodied. Finish yields some hints of straw and hay. I really enjoy this one.
