May 7, 2009 12oz bottle. Dark amber pour with slight head. Tastes of citrus and raisin. Very much like a belgian style ale yet slightly different somehow. Alcohol was hidden but with so much it was still definitely noticable.

Apr 24, 2009 11 ounce goblet - $8.25 at Taco Mac in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Appearance: Near opaque, mahogany-hued body with an admirable half-inch of white head.
Smell: Sweet-scented, toasty malts with a large aroma of caramel ice cream topping, juicy fruits, fresh-ground spices, some peppery alcohol wafts, and a faint, meager sniff of macaroons.
Taste: Toasty, bread malts furnished with a bold candi sugar sweetness and fruity tastes of grape, concentrated fig juice, and a pinch of dried orange peel. Hint of almond paste. Spice character tasting of crushed cloves along with thin traces of ground allspice and mace. It’s about this time the warming, inviting alcohol presence slides in. Faint, nondescript bitterness midway. Later taste of spices, caramel slathered toast. Finishes fruity and warming with a slight yeast character.
Mouthfeel: Medium-full body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Worth a try. Though it’s not quite as graceful or as elegant as one of its Belgian brethren, it still remains a satisfying ale.

Apr 22, 2009 this is what a Belgian should taste like. the flavors of rich fruity flavors with a strong malts presence. the hops are minimal at best but the rest makes up for one you cant miss.

Apr 22, 2009 The aroma is very fruity with bananas, bubble gum, spices, and has syrup, malt, sarsaparilla, and yeast. The appearance is copper with an average head for the style. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thick and smooth. Overall a real winner.
