Nov 18, 2005 Bottled. Hazy pale apricotty orange/yellow colour with huge, longlasting foamish bubbly head, lacing. Spices, herbs, yeast and wheat in aroma. Also some hints of fruits and flowers. Flavour of herbs, fruit with flowery hoppish hints. Some wheat, caramel and grassyness in flavour too. A bit "soapish" at some point too. Sweetish bitter aftertaste at first, which then turns into smooth hops, and lasts long. Very well done brew! Rich carbonation, but not disturbing, makes palate quite pleasant.

Nov 8, 2005 It is yeasty and unfuiltered, the color is light. Tastes like a wheat beer, neither sour or sweet. Aftertaste of yeast on the tongue.

Nov 4, 2005 Hazy yellow colour. Big long lasting head. Aroma of hops, yeast and spices. Dry and smooth malty flavor and also in the background spices and floral hops.
Finish off with a nice bitterness. A very easy drinking beer.

Oct 31, 2005 Lightly cloudy dark straw colored brew with a moderate white head. Light fruit and mint in the aroma. In interesting aroma that pull you back. Dry, yet firm malt flavors abound mixing with a hops, spice and herb backdrop. Heather and golden rod, mix with mint and saffron. A belgian pils that goes beyond the ordinary. Crisp for an ale. A brew I have been longing to try for some time, and glad to say I was not disappointed. Thanks to ImtheOptimator and jjpm74 for the samples. Greatly appreciated.

Oct 30, 2005 From the bottle this pours a clear golden color with a tall white head, but as you get near the bottom you get some more particles. This was a really nice beer all around, i wasn’t so fond of it as we started, a kinda funky earthy note clashed with the fruitiness of the ale, but the more i drank the more they worked together. Well hopped and balanced out perfectly with just a light spicing in the finish.

Oct 21, 2005 33 cl bottle. Yeast in bottom. Some unclear golden colour with a nice head. Very hoppy aroma of flower. A very hoppy Belgium ale both in flavour and in finish.

Oct 17, 2005 Welcome #300! Couldn’t bring myself to open the 12, I’ll wait till the next milestone. Pours a light hazy orange with just a bit of carbonation and a huge foamy white head. The aroma is candy sugar, Belgian yeast, spices (like pepper and cardamom) and a light sweetness. Nice. The flavor was spicy (did not take a guess as to which ones) and stereotypically “Belgian”. Green pepper in there, a bit of soap. Smooth medium body. I really did not care for this. I drank it slowly to note flavor changes as it warmed but I just found this unenjoyable. Maybe beer 400 will be better.
