Dec 21, 2009 Pours from bomber a nice caramel malt presence coupled to a spicy hop and yeast presence. The aroma was esters dominate and fruity to accompany the spice and malt. The beer arrived crystal clear pale golden with a low lasting head which laced the glass. The flavour was fruity with a light bit of spice through the strong esters and some presence of alcohol. Caramel presence was fairly low. The overall taste presented as herbal and quite nice. The finish was dry with some lasting spice into the aftertaste. Decent Belgie made here in NC, nice.

Clear golden body with a small white head.
Candy malt aroma.
Well balanced, sweet, yet not cloying. The alcohol is very well hidden.

Sep 9, 2009 Orange pour with small white head. Aroma of sugary fruits and some malt. Flavor of more sweet fruits and hoppy malts with hint of banana on the back end. Best of their crop of beers by far.

Sep 3, 2009 Draft at Bull McCabes. Dark yellow to orange hue with thin head and big lacing. Nose is Belgian candi sugar, pears and apples, and sweet malts and wheat. Flavor follows suit with a big sweet Belgian fruit and malt profile, good hop balance, finishes quite sweet. Smooth and creamy texture with a modest alcohol presence and full-bodied goodness. A thick sweet Belgian that borders on cloying, not for mass consumption, I’m already feeling very full....

Jul 11, 2009 Brought home by the wife who saw this on a shopping trip with the girls to Southern Season in Chapel Hill. From a 22oz bottle this one poured a golden color with lots of foamy white head and quite a bit of bubbles. Aroma of malts, citrus, spices with some banana scents as well. Taste of coriander, alcohol, banana and plenty of sweetness to go around. Lots of carbonation. Overall decent Belgian Golden Ale.
