Jan 10, 2009 FRom 750ml bottle. Smells of orange peel and clove. Pours hazy yellow with a thick white head. High carbonation. Flavors of orange, cloves, spices, yeast. And the flavor lingers for a long time. This is a great beer!

Jan 10, 2009 A - 750ml bottle Pours a cloudy pale yellow color, tons of carbonation, very nice white foamy head, tons of lacing throughout the drink.
S - Scents of malts, yeast, citrus, and some spices.
T - The taste is sweet but tangy, with a nice dry finish. The alcohol content is hidden very well.
M - Medium body, nice carbonated feel, well rounded brew.
D - Very drinkable. Another excellent brew from Unibroue. Would highly recommend and buy again.

Jan 7, 2009 Pours a pale straw yellow with a white finger and a half head.Poured into a tulip glass. Clove yeasty flavor much like a German or Bavarian hef but much cleaner. for an 9% alc brew this hides it very dangerously.This has the clean Canadian crispness with the Bavarian purity drinkability all wrapped in one beer!

Jan 7, 2009 96 is a very high score, despite many who hate this beer. I would have rated it a lot lower a few years ago. Because my tastes has changed. Also, because now I know it is MADE TO BE DRANK WARMER than usual beers. 8 or 10 degrees celcius, around 45 farenheit. Then you’ll discover the flavors that are smoothly fruity and both sugary, with not much bitterness. It is a great beer to me, and I am saving some for aging. They say 5 years potential in a Unibroue booklet I got in a special package.

Jan 4, 2009 Tulip from bottle. Pours a thick orange/tan. Boozy aroma of yeasts, some tropical fruits. Boozy flavor follows the aroma, with some clingy bourbon-esque aftertaste. Sticky.

Jan 3, 2009 Poured a hazy gold color with a fluffy white head. Spicy, citrusy aroma Spicy grapefriut flavor with maybe the barest hint of alcohol. Very easy drinking for an ale of 9%. Excellent

Jan 1, 2009 750 ml bottle that somehow was available for purchase in my uber religious hometown. Nice golden pour with a huge white head and a nice big amount of lacing left behind. Fruity smell with a big flavor of bubblegum and fruit with some wheat thrown in as well. Tasty little ale, would definitely drink again. This was the beer I chose to ring in the new year with, hope the name is no indicator of what will happen in 09!
