Jul 2, 2009 THIS BEER CHALLENGED ME, I BOUGHT IT OUT OF CURIOUSITY NOT KNOWING WHAT TO EXPECT. I POURDED IT INTO THE GLASS THAT WAS RECOMENDED ON THE BOTTLE AND I WAS TRULY AMAZED BY THE COLOR, (CLOUDY RUSTY GOLDEN) THE AMOUNT OF THICK FOAMY HEAD AND MOSTLY THE ABUNDANCE OF CARBONATION . WHEN I TASTED IT, I DIDNT KNOW WHAT TO THINK, I DONT LOVE IT AND I DONT HATE IT BUT I DEFINATELY FEEL CHALLENGED BY THE FLAVOR IT IS A FAMILIAR TASTE WHICH I HAVE YET TO PUT MY FINGER ON I THINK IT MAY BE CARROT, SWEET POTATOES ,YAMS OR SOME SORT OF ROOT VEGETABLES? (ACTUALLY I AM CERTAIN) VERY ODD GOOD BEER TO PAIR WITH FINE CUISINE , ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT BE SO GOOD FOR CHILLING WITH YOUR PEEPS AND THROWING DOWN A FEW.

Jul 1, 2009 Drank these to death once upon a time. Great fluffy head, fruity aromas, nice complex taste of citrus, grains, and more fruity notes. Excellent stuff.

Jun 29, 2009 Pours a clear golden color with a massive head. Aroma is fruity, yeasty & sour. The mouthfeel is very carbonated almost similar to champagne. The taste is lightly fruity & almost tastes like sour apples.

Jun 29, 2009 750ml bottle from BevMo. Pours a hazy honey color with one finger creamy head. Nose is cloves, yeast and fruit bubblegum. Taste is tangy citrus, spicy Belgian yeast and a souring finish that fades into sweet fruits again. Medium mouth feel. An easier drinker but quite warming at 9%.

Jun 28, 2009 I just had a booklyn #1 last night and these 2 are very close; this might be slightly better but it’s damn close.
cloudy golden pour (12oz btle) with small head; NO alcohol taste or pepper like #1; very smooth and sweeter finish than #1. very crisp finish also.
that’s as good as I have had

Jun 26, 2009 When I tried this beer it was the best beer I had ever tried, it has since been superceded by some excellent imperial stouts and trappists, but it is still a great beer. Characteristically yeasty taste from Unibroue, and very nice and spicy. Despite the high alcohol content, it is not overly boozy. A brilliant orange colour.
