Bottle shared by Kinz at the 16th Richmond Ratebeer Gathering, 11/5/11. Pours an amber yellow color with a thin white head that fades quickly. Spicy aroma with pale bready malts and caramel. The taste is sweet sugary malts, spice, bread, bubblegum and spicy hops. Medium bodied.

Originally rated April 2005. This "La Chouffe" imitation pours a hazy white-golden colour with some head, but no retention. The lacing left is quite small as well. The aroma though is quite something. Oranges (citrus), yeast and spices. The taste is spicy with coriander, yeasty and with some bubble gum finish. Smooth and mostly flat mouthfeel, very enjoyable and refreshing. Great spicy strong brew.

Pours gold into a tulip. Off-white head quickly crackles and dissipates to hug rim. Sweet caramel and sour yeast aromas. Thin and peppery from front to back. Slight mellow clove in the lasting alcohol finish.

Very hazy golden coloured body with a ton of bubbles and a thin white head. Aroma of strong wheat and yeast with a little lemon scent too. Full-bodied; Strong spicey flavour with a good wheat taste. Aftertaste very strong and leaves the palate nice. Overall, a good beer - definitely worth trying if you can find it. I brought this one back from Montreal on a recent trip up there...hopefully it can be found in other places too though. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased in a small convienience shop in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on 25-March-2006.

(Bottle 65 cl) Pours an unclear pale golden with a tiny, white head. Fresh, citrusy nose. Good, full body with accents of yeast, citrus and coriander. Lightly sulphurous finish. Very, very true to the Belgian style and quite neat. 270106
