Sep 30, 2009 Bottle shared by shawnm213- thanks, Shawn! Pours clear gold with a small off-white head. Aroma of citrus, hops, pine, yeast, soap. Flavor follows suit, with a ton of hops. Just a touch of alcohol comes through on the palate. Bitter, with a dry, bitter finish. Not bad, but it was hard to try this after the Uberhoppy Imperial IPA.

Sep 17, 2009 Interesting brew. Sweet hoppy aroma with a clove and hop taste. It was ok. Blended well just falls a little short.

Sep 14, 2009 Bottle via trade with Hopshunter. Pours a slightly hazy straw urine color. Decent head, snow white with good lacing. Yeasty nose and fruity esters. Grapish. Very Belgian nose. Flavor is classic Belgian with a ton of hops. Low bitterness, but strong hop flavor. Classic Belgian light mouth feel with a very prickly carbonation. I’m not a huge Belgian fan, so I may rate this lower then it deserves. Too much pine in the hops, could use some more citrus or spice.

Sep 2, 2009 22 oz. small off white head, slightly hazy. Aroma on the weak side, mild citrus, somewhat metallic malt, a touch grainy. Taste is better though: some light esters and phenolics from the yeast, some nice citrus hop character. Body is medium-full, finishes with a nice bitterness. Overall pretty nice. Thanks Ethan.

Aug 30, 2009 Bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. Hazy golden pour. Fairly smooth aroma. A citrusy smell with a small amount of soap. Soft detergent aroma. Taste has a light upfront taste with a soft, dry body. Lightly hopped that tingles. Dries out from the hops. Interesting but rough.

Interesting beer, it starts out with the Belgian yeasty flavors but then the hops kick in. Different, enjoyable and I bet if they tweak with this a bit more they’d come out with some extraordinary.
