HonkeyBra (1270), Lemont, Illinois, USA May 25, 2008 Pours a dark amber with a very nice head. Aroma is of fruit and yeast, mostly. Some spice. Taste is of apricot, plum, grape. Overall, a great beer that is both sip-able and sessionable. ansermadide (496), Kyle, Texas, USA May 25, 2008 Updated: Jun 9, 2008(From bottle at Opal Devine’s on May 25, 2008) Murky brown with a tint of orange. Smells slightly sour. Taste is sour, of yeast. Sweet, and barely alcoholic. Cloud of yeast floating at the top... quite lovely. Very thin body. gonzo46and2 (108), Tampa, Florida, USA May 24, 2008 On tap at Tanks Taproom in Tampa. Amazing aroma of brown sugar, roasted malt, and fruit pie. Soft foamy head like it was a nitro pour but the bubbly mouthfeel contradicts that. Taste is of pie and german yeast. Kinda like a hefe with more sweetness. Really tasty beer! 00cobraR (1096), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA May 24, 2008 this one was just alright for me. Pours out a cloudy brown color with a nice tan head. aroma is sweet and fruity with a touch of yeast. flavor was also fruity, but just had a finish that was taking away from this one. oh well. not a bad brew by any means, but not the best either. nickspies (76), Omaha, Nebraska, USA May 22, 2008 2008-Apr-25 from a 750 ml bottle. Dried fruit aroma with some alcohol burn. Light brown and cloudy with a good head. Astringent heat...not much depth of flavor...some brown sugar. Decent mouthfeel. dolemite77 (184), Maryville, Tennessee, USA May 21, 2008 Pours a DARK amber with a head of large white bubbles that dissipate to a thin rim of small tight bubbles. Aroma is a funky dusty yeast. The fermentation really gets a lot of different flavors into this one. Dark fruit of course, but there is a spiciness to it as well. Clove and nutmeg. There is a huge alcohol presence to this--- which is what I think the "warmth" that the description speaks of. Nice canadian version of a belgian! blklab2007 (938), Connecticut, USA May 20, 2008 bottle poured into a tulip glass has a dark amber color and steady carbonation producing a two finger off white head that fell quickly. aroma is started off with heavy dark fruited yeast, candy sugar, spice, and light citrus. the yeast in here is really what makes the nose distinct. mouth feel is lighter with heavy carbonation biting at the tongue. the yeasted flavor is just as good, plumb, raisin, figs, candy sugar, spice, and some acidic bite. finish is heavy on the carbonation with spices. the acid level is a little high in here but overall this is fairly solid. carruthm (1112), Seattle, Washington, USA May 20, 2008 dark orange hue with an enthusiastic head with a latte like consistency; doesn’t leave much in the way of lacing.
wheats and lemony citrus notes on the nose.
palate is nice, well coating.
