Dec 27, 2007 Pours a hazy, darker straw yellow body with a huge three finger high off-white head that looks like seafoam. Yeasty nose with some light fruitiness. Flavor starts with a short shot of lemon thats quickly overcome by a dirty, earthy hop flavor and a tinge of Lysol and some Earl Grey tea. Finishes kind of dry. Loved this the first time I had it but I haven’t had a really good bottle since.

Dec 27, 2007 A golden with white fluffy head...tastes of hops (not exceedingly so) and a tinge of yeast (it is bottle conditioned). Enjoyable, and a dry sensation

Dec 23, 2007 Appearance: Golden in color with a half inch of white creamy head. The head dissipates leaving a spotty lacing.
Smell: There are yeasty aromas as this beer warms, with hints of fruit and a floral smell from the hops. There are also smells of grain and caramel.
Taste: I found banana, yeast, clove, alcohol warmth, as well as a slight pineyness of hops in the finish. Not as hoppy as the name would suggest, but still present.
Mouthfeel: I found it to be medium bodied, a little thinner than I might have liked, but not far off.
Drinkability: Quite drinkable, enjoyed all that I had and will probably be coming back to this one in the future.

Dec 21, 2007 Bottle from Drunken Geers. Gold with thick off white head. Very Belgian, very hoppy. On the XX Bitter/Hommelbirer lines, but the additional alcohol gives it a syrupy sweetness. Aggressive hop finish. Lacks a bit of subtlety. Nice though.
