ontheroad (25), Buffalo, New York, USA Mar 20, 2008 Pours with a fair head and a cloudy orange color. Has a fruity aroma with a slightly acidic citrus flavor. Some overtones of alcohol in the finish. A decent brew. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Mar 16, 2008 Coudy with a brown color and ruby highlights. Has an average off-white head. Aromas off sweet fruits and malts with yesty notes. Flavors are citrus and sweet malts. HughConway (364), Alabama, USA Mar 14, 2008 Bottle. Pours mahogany, white head disperses quickly. Fruit earthy aroma with some yeast. Nice spicy fruit flavour not too sweet. A fine beer. ILduce (133), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 10, 2008 750ml Bottle: Cloudy brown-amber under a medium off-white soapy head. Yeasty, ripe- fruity, earthy aroma with faint notes of chocolate and dust. Flavours of raisins, dried figs, sweet malts, candy sugar and spice. Dry alcoholic finish. Stylistically elusive but exquisitely complex and robust. cellardoor (45), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Mar 10, 2008 Had on draft at the Bailey’s Chocolate Bar in STL. It had an almost reddish hue and off-white head. It shared many of the expected Belgian spice and dried fruit aromas, but maybe to a lesser degree. I expected a fuller mouthfeel as this seemed to fall a little flat on the tounge, no robust spice, no strong hop flavor. I guess at the same time the temperedness makes this very approachable. Bhops (329), Dallas, Texas, USA Mar 7, 2008 Updated: May 9, 2008from bottle, one of my favorite everyday beers... fair amount of carbonation that dissipates quickly without much lacing, poors deep mahogany, taste like it smells but with a spicy kick...fruitiness masks alcohol well but still has an alcoholic finish mybestfriend (261), Gothenburg, Sweden Mar 7, 2008 Updated: Apr 29, 2008Bottle. Pours an amber colour with an off-white head. The aroma really reminded me of sparkling white wine. A bit tart with hints of yeast and some fruity malts. The flavour is also reminiscent of sparkling white wine. Some tartness and some sweetness - you can feel the yeast together with some spices (coriander?). You don’t feel the alcohol at all. Not much bitterness to talk about. I liked this one! Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Mar 6, 2008 Great smelling beer, has the lingering taste of alcohol but it is masked nicely. Great blend of spices that move through out the entire mouth. Would buy again
