Bottle shared by someone at a tasting at Sean’s, thanks! Poured a hazy creamy gold with a white heads that dissipated quickly to the edges. Aroma was full of hay, bread and grain with a backing yeast note and just a bit of spice perhaps. Flavor was sweet with grain and bread notes with a balancing yeast note.

22 oz bottle courtesy of beastiefan2k. Pour is hazed yellow golden with a very loose quick falling white head. Aroma of sweet yeastiness, clove straw hay, herbal maltiness. Nice integration of aromas, very full. Taste is softly sweet - fruit apple apricot, with great herbal straw spiciness right behind that. As with the nose, really nice integration of flavors. Palate is medium to full, soft carbonation, soft and gentle with a long pleasant aftertaste. Really nice and drinkable beer. Thanks for sharing this one Eugene.

Courtesy of MCLK. Pours clear gold with thin white head. The aroma is candi sugar, some modest amounts of black pepper corns, prunes, apricots and floral to spicy hops. The taste is near refreshing with spice hops and earthy hops followed by medium colored fruity esters like apricots and pears. Mixing in there too is candi sugar and a sense of black pepper hanging out on the edges of the flavor.

Tap at the brewpub - this is a seriously tasty belgian table beer - moderately sweet in aroma, with a pleasant yeasty character, and mild belgian fruitiness - full but soft carbonation in the mouth - nice and clean - medium-dry, with just a mild honey sweetness late - mostly crisp, biscuity malt and floral hops - finishes mostly clean, with a slightly starchy, jasmine rice sort of quality - a really pleasant belgian session beer.

Cask at the Brazen Head cask fest in a10oz glass. This one came in at a 5% alcohol level. It was yellow, very light looking, very little head. It smelled great though, an apple-syruppy smell. It tasted nice, weak body though. Sweetness but not anything overpowering. Very good combo for a light beer with lots of taste. 7/2/7/3/14

Three years between batches, too long. I have to thank Bill for getting me this bottle, I love Southampton but just moved out of NY. Fortunately, Bill was able to score some stuff for me. It pours with lots of anger, a quick rush of foam and carbonation bubbles. The head is at first medium-large, fades quickly but not completely. The color of the beer is a light golden, clear with lots of visible carbonation bubbles. Looks very pretty. Here comes the aroma and I am quiet surprised and delighted. Its has a strong floral sweetness surrounded by a light doughiness from the yeast. A sweet perfume flower with a very faint herbal character at the very end, if I look hard enough anyway. Its perfectly melded, strong but not too sweet, or too floral, perfectly present and well, I like it. Taste is similar except that sweet floralness takes a back seat and the herbal character grows stronger. There is a light, faint muted lemon zing there as well. This all finishes with a lightly dry bitterness. This makes it absolutely quaffable, can just keep drinking it for days. It is in general very fresh and springtime-like. As I pour more from the bottle these aspects of the beer grower stronger and the color gets darker, thicker, and murkier. Actually looks awesome going from the clear beer to the thick little clarity body.
22oz bottled in Dec, 2008, Bell’s tulip glass, thanks again beerbill.
