sampler @ brewery - light orange and cloudy; considerable lacing from the thin white head; smooth, rich aromas of flowers, spices and yeast; a little fruit mixed in there too; crisp body with mild mix of flavors; slight spice in the dry finish

On-tap and from a 2l growler. Pours dark yellow with orange highlights, thin crisp white head, little retention, specks of lace. Smells of spices and bready malt with a little bit of banana. Even more spice in the flavor, bready and yeasty malt flavors as well and some banana sweetness. Medium body, crisp but somewhat subdued carbonation.

Pours hazy bright golden. Nose is full and rich with spice, banana and clove. The flavor is the same, with an added influence that is like rose petals, rounding it out and causing it to flow like lace over the tongue. Subtle bitter finish.

This Belgian Ale pours a deep orange gold color from a hand bottle 22oz bottle. Thanks Steve. Medium sized white foamy head, with good retention and nice lacing, Aroma is fruity, sweet and yeasty. There is also a touch of hops as well. A medium bodied Belgian Ale. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral. It still has that nice spiciness and yeastiness that one would expect from a Belgian style ale, but there is a good dose of hoppiness. This beer has been in the bottle for a year or so, and it has a very nice crisp and dry finish. Nice beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is crisp and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter and spicy.

Thanks to Beerguy101. Poured a lightly hazed copper with a large off-white head. The aroma was lightly spiced with some sweet malt and Belgian yeast esters. The malt on the flavor was light
