| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2004 Pours a hazy gold color, with an incredibly effervescent carbonation driven thick off white head. Aromas of garden fresh vegetables, spicy yeast, cider, and blooming fields of wild-flowers, all waft from my glass. I am greeted by a refreshing, spicy, sweet first draught of this effervescent brew. It tingles on my tongue as it goes down. An incredibly smooth, well integrated brew, it just seems to want to be quaffed, which, is quite dangerous given a beer of this strength. La Fin Du Monde indeed!
Quite appropriately this is sharp and spicy at various points. I get note of hay, bergamot, hint of pepper, lemon, an herbal bite, and some vanilla. Overall it definitely has some interesting soft citrus notes as well as some appetizing acidity. This is an awesome brew from a currently great brewery, let’s hope it stays that way.

Heavenly concotion, one I plan to be drinking during the Endtimes, should the occasion arrive during my lifetime. Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2006 BCA (Nov 08). Sweet malts and strong alcohol dont help the spicy yeast and citrus flavours. But the initial floral honey flavours to the malt are pretty good, unfortunately these fade into obscurity after the onslaught of sweet alcohol. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jun 24, 2004 Cloudy Gold Coloring. Small Head. Fruity...reminded me of Pyramid Apricot Ale for that flavor... Yeast. Definitly a good beer, but hoped for more. ekstedt (2447), Göteborg, Sweden
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 13, 2007 Bottle (33 cl). Pours clody deep golden, almost orange. Spicy aroma with notes of hay and honey, and a yeasty touch, of course. Well carbonated. The finish is too sweet, unbalanced and alcoholic for my taste. YogiBeera (2437), Hamburg, Germany

Alcohol, vanilla, yeast and banana in taste. Slightly peppery. Fullmouth - smooth - suprisingly if you see how fizzy it is. Yummie unclemattie (2433), Georgia, USA
