The beer is golden, pale enough. It smells fruits, malt and spices. In mouth, the alcohol is on the frontline, more than for the Fringante who proposed 10% ABV. Lemon, coriander and other sweet components stick to this alcohol and malt and leave a warming astringent feeling. Magicdave6 (5554), London, Greater London, England

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 30, 2002 Butterscotch aroma and cloudy golden body. Solid fruity and malty flavor masks most of the alcohol and the finish is dry and clean. It doesn’t quite have the aged oilyness in the palate many of the better Belgain ales have, but hey, it’s not the end of the world, so sit back and enjoy it, because it’s still a respectable brew. hopscotch (5511), Vero Beach, Florida, USA

A complex and excellent beer. The aroma was lightly floral and yeasty (soap). I detected aged apples, lemon and an unfamiliar, very pleasant spice in the nose. This masterpiece has a murky golden hue with a large, rocky white head. No lacing, but fully lasting. Deliscious. Very malty, but well balanced. Not sweet. A touch sour (I dig that) with hints of citrus and alcohol. The 9% ABV is fairly well hidden. Medium body with a creamy mouthfeel. Lively carbonation. A touch acetic in the finish, but mostly just a long, very dry finish to an excellent belgian style ale. Belgian Trippel fans must try this one. Highly recommended. Bov (5478), Bienne, Switzerland

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2002 Slightly better than i remember ( the bottle i had had been aged for a couple of years), very nice, hints of wine (chardonnay), peach, malt, hops, and nice and dry. But still had the characteristics from the other brews from Unibroue (perhaps a bit of sweet stickiness, very nice beer though. JorisPPattyn (5190), Antwerpen, Belgium
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 22, 2004 Orange, light-coloured beer, very carbonated to extremely dense, finebubbled white head. Very fruity nose, slightly but obviously spicey, grapes and coriander. Very much coriander in the taste, fruity-flowery character, gradually becoming very dry, high attenuation despite some restsugars. Good balance dry-sweet. Medium bodied. Much more spiced than memory had it; just too spicey for being really good. ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark
