| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 8, 2009 Bottle. Strong fruity aromas, pours a very dark brown color. The light tan head is thick and holds quite well. There are flavors of spices, and a lot of yeasty malts. It’s a very good beer, the palate is a bit on the thin side for a beer this strong, but the alcohol is well hidden underneath the very smooth flavors. Bullit (1323), Glasgow, Scotland

Taste is refreshing, light, fruity sweet, and little malt body. There is a good complexity and palate to the drink. Overall, a very enjoyable and evolving brew. thorongil2 (56), , Ontario, Canada

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 28, 2009 Appearance: While I’m used to a large fluffy head, this one poured with no head at all. The body is a cloudy dark yellow gold.
Aroma: Funky spicy fruity yeast. It’s really pleasant, but I can’t attribute it to a fruit or a flower.
Taste: Fruity, spicy yeast and hops. Cloves, coriander and citrus rind are found as I further savor.
Mouthfeel: Thick and fizzy.
Overall: A one of a kind, flavorful Belgian-style beer. I’ve had this beer so many times, in different parts of the country, and it’s remained consistently good.
