A Belgian-style strong golden ale with a wondrous range of fruit flavors like plum, apricot, and cherry imparted by special Belgian yeast. Traditionally served in special goblets this style of beer can turn an ordinary lunch into an extraordinary event and a slow Sunday afternoon into a special Golden Sabbath.

Hazy gold with a small white head. Sweetish, tart and vinegary with strong booziness and some fruit. Medium finish and body.

Notes from 6/02/19. Bottle from the the ABC in Wailea, packed & settled home in BK. Had this on tap eventually, but no time for notes when your on vacation. Duvel tulip. Big foamy off-white head. Clear, dark gold honey body. Simply lathery as ever sip leaves a generous bubbly trail behind. Smells of Belgian candied sugar more then honey, malt, Cheerios, mineral water. Taste is bittersweet. Sweet honey nut Cheerios malt, Belgian-American phenols, lingering bitter greens, lingering bold citrus rind, foamy, surprisingly light body. ABV was about right, but this is quite easy. Good.

Bomber from ABC store. Pours orange gold with a white head. Aroma of yeast spice and honey. Arguably full bodied. A bit sweet with some heat. Spice fights the sweet. Heavy duty brew. Liking it.

On tap in the Hilo Burger Joint on 12th December 2022. Old gold colour, weak white head. Belgian yeast aroma and also in the taste, pretty sweet too. Liked it, real fruity flavour within the sweetness.
