Apr 18, 2008 Draught at the brewpub. Dark red-amber with a small head. Fuity and sweet malt aroma with subtle belgian yeast notes. The flavor is quite malty with melon and pear notes, but not too sweet or yeasty. Like a belgian influenced amber ale. smooth and clean body. Good stuff.

Feb 20, 2008 On tap at brewery...6.7%. Amber color...amber malt aroma and taste. They also had the Dubbel, Triple, IPA, wheat and others on tap but this was the best...smoothest with least imperfections. Nice amber malt, slight spice and bitterness, rich fruit and citrus. Overall a smooth malt gem.

Feb 19, 2008 Draft at brewery, 02/18/08. ABV for this batch was listed as 6.7%. Amber colored, coppery. Good head retention, but bubbles were gone by the time I got to the glass. Slight aroma of yeast and bananas. Banana, sweet orange and a dash of black pepper appear on the tongue along with sweet maltiness. A valiant effort.

Aug 28, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Listed as 7.1%, so possibly they changed the recipe. Amber color. Small nice microbubble head, characteristic of every beer I tried there. Stronger banana in aroma. Bite of a younger beer. Some subdued grapefruit hops.
