On tap at the brewery. Pours dead flat, no head and minimal signs of carbonation. Hazed slightly deeper golden hue. Aromas are of esters (banana among them), light nutmeg, 4VG (clove) and a light salinity/minerality. Flavors are good. Spicy, clove, light bready and grainy malt notes. Some esters. Not extremely to style in its yeast character, but still pretty good. Some marmalade and floral notes. Very lightly carbonated which makes the body feel a touch flabby. Tasty though. Didn’t get any of the purported 11% ABV (the Wit seemed to have slightly more alcohol flavors surprisingly). When properly conditioned this could be a very tasty big belgian ale. I look forward to re-rating it.
