Tap at Stone Bistro. Pours amber/orange, white head. Aroma is hoppy, light spices and herbal notes. Taste, some funk? phenolic / Belgian yeast, herbal hops with thin malt. Crisp finish.

Tap at Spuyten Duyvil - I came at this not knowing what kind of beer it was supposed to be, so it was an interesting experience - the first few sips tasted all biere de garde, with a lot of biscuity, crackery malts and dry, cobweb notes - hints of innocuous fruitiness - however, with further sips, those hops really started to take over the beer - very earthy, pine-like, citrusy, zesty and peppery -very ipa-like - this quality wasn’t bad, but I was disappointed that it kept getting in the way of the belgian character and earthiness - still, another solid ale from these guys, even if it doesn’t know what it wants to be

On tap. Pours with a foamy, off-white head and a hazy dark amber body. Good lacing. Tons of citrus and spicy hops with a bit of fruit. Surprised at the ABV. Taste is a bit of Belgian yeast, earthiness, and spicy hops. Lively bubbles and a bit dry. Very good, stuff.
