I liked the first gumball flavor experience, the general texture, which is gummy, rubbery, and clayey. It’s unique and delicious.

Pours a very cloudy amber...just like I like it! Minimal head, but that might have come down to pouring technique. Amazing aroma of apple, citrus, spicy and slightly of yeast. Taste is reminiscent of Alagash White, but with an apple touch. Refreshing and clean. UPDATE: Has a 2nd bottle, poured into a different glass from a greater height. This time with the result of fluffier head, which hung around for a bit. Noticeable carbonation as well.

pours a cloudy dark yellow with a very nice three finger creamy, fluffy, off white head. aroma is green apples, a little coriander, and curacao with a little unibroue yeast. has a light to medium body with descent lacing and good carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma. has a little creamy mouth-feel to it and there is more of a smooth sour than sweet apples to this beer. not to bad could be better though. interesting combination of flavors also.

Bottle. Thanks to richlikebeer. Pours a carbonated yellow color with a foamy white head. Powerful apple aroma. Not so pronounced on the taste. Lots of yeast in the taste.

Very smooth, certainly refreshing and pretty good but I have a tough time viewing this as a beer. If someone told me that this was a hard cider I might believe them. A golden, yellow look to it, cloudy with a nice thick foamy head. Aroma is sweet and fruity, what I at first thought might be rasberries mixed in with apples. The flavor is very smooth and refreshing, perfect for the summer. The 5.5% is much lower than other Unibroue selections I’ve had, but they still do a great job hiding what alcohol is in there. Definitely a unique brew, at least to me it is. A sweet apple flavor dominates the flavor, not overpowering in the least and again, not something I would usually drink as a beer but it does go down good in the sun. A slight yeast note in there worth noting. Overall it’s a nice change from the norm. I suggest giving it a try, you might really like it. Although, while it’s a great "sun" beer, there are much less pricey beverages to seek out while mowing the lawn.

Bouteille de 341 ml. La bière se présente avec une couleur or voilée avec une mousse blanche pétillante qui reste tout au long de la dégustation. Au nez des arômes de jus de pomme, de levure, de citron et d’épices se présentent à mon sens de l’odorat. En bouche la bière est pétillante et nous offres aussi une texture légèrement crèmeuse. Les saveurs sont les pommes vertes, la levure, certaines épices douces ainsi qu’un léger goût d’alcool. Des notes de caramel et de cannelle sont aussi présentes. La finale est rafraîchissante, tranchante, légèrement acidulée, douce et tout cela en parfaite harmonie. Excellente bière d’été

Pours hazy golden yellow with small white head. Strong aromas of apples and Unibroue yeast. Flavor is mildly sweet with hints of apples and yeast. The apple is not as overpowering as I would have thought based on the stong apple smell. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Not bad, but not something I would drink on a regular basis.

Pours a cloudy orange with about two fingers of head. Apples and coriander in the odor. Taste of caramel and apple, but the sweetness doesn’t overpower it- it’s still got a good taste of beer to it. Very interseting.
