From Jan 2006
Poured from bottle a cloudy yellow with a thick and billowy head that settled down after a few minutes....but not much. ;^)
The smell is clove spicy and there's also a fruity air to it but it's hard for me to pick out *which* fruit.
The taste is a spicy mix of clove and pepper and there is some citrusy fruit and a bit of banana in the background. An unusual tasting brew, for me, but the end result is that it works nicely.
Overall, this is a very good session Belgian style ale. I recommend it.

Tap at the brewpub. More Belgian than the others, with that yeastiness and a more candy-like sweetness, and also more of it. Great drinkability again. Later bitterness, but it works nicely.

Draft sample at the brewpub, Santa Rosa. Hazed yellow straw coloured pour with a sticky white head. Aroma is doughy wheat, light citrus, lemon, raw grains, straw. Little funk on the nose as well. Flavour is composed of raw wheat grains, light orange peel, dough, white bread. Palate is grainy, doughy, moderate carbonation. Like a Belgian wit.

Pours cloudy and pale yellow. Bit of foam. Aroma is yeasty, and sweetish. sip is super flavourful, some funk and bit of mild bettering hops. I can understand the naming thing, redemption after the Damnation, really cleaning the palate from a heavier golden ale I had minutes before.
