This beer had been languishing in my fridge for a bit, and i regret that I’d overlooked it. It is spicey, full-bodied, tripel-like, and pretty good, despite the unknown age of this particular example.
Appearance wasn’t great. There was a lot of Sprite/7-Up looking head initially, which quickly faded to a scummy coating. Aroma is quite spicey, like clove and coriander. Flavor is a bit over-sweet, but offers nice spiciness and some zesty citrusness. Mouthfeel is a bit sticky. Pretty good.
I would recommend this beer. I believe I bought this bottle on New Year’s Day at Koppa’s Food on Farwell Ave in Milwaukee (across from Comet Cafe).

Jul 3, 2008 My first Unibroue experience and i came away impressed i don’t know if its a Gift from God but the flavor of this beer is excellent poured a nice pale gold color with plenty of head not overpowering but a lot of citrus flavor and a very little hint of some spice .... hides the 9% very well not malty or hoppy very soft flavor a memorable brew

does not count  Jul 1, 2008 Updated: Jul 8, 2008Strong aroma of golden hay. Somewhat cloudy with lively carbonation. Frothy head. Somewhat of a champagne mouth-feel. Crisp and refreshing.

Jun 27, 2008 Sampled during Cellar’s Wine & Spirits Wednesday evening tasting via Unibroue representative. Pours a cloudy golden blonde brew with a thick and lumpy off-white head that has some nice retention. Aroma of mild yeast, golden grain bread dough, a touch of honey and citrus zest. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with flavors of golden grain malt, yeast, some honey and a touch of vanilla. Finish is semi-sweet with a yeast, banana and golden grain malt aftertaste.

Jun 21, 2008 35.5cl from World of Beer (Largo, FL). Pours a cloudy golden honey color with thick frothy white head. Looks like a tripel ale. Smells of bread, yeast, dough, fresh hay, and hints of honey and citrus. Taste is sweet with notes of honey and caramel, malt and citrus. Medium-bodied ale with a quick-sweet apple finish.
