6.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Bottled (BB 12/2007). Cute flip-top bottle. Hazy orange-copper color, huge creamy head, lace. Fruity aroma: orange and apricot, yeast and crisp tones. Very yeasty, quite full mouthfeel. Fruity and sweetish, "rye bread with honey and smoked ham", dunkelweizen-type flavor with strong alcoholic bite in the finish. Kind of unbalanced with a high concentration of yeast. Possibly evolves by aging.

(Bottle 33 cl) Amber golden with yeasty impurities. Gigantic head with good retention. Very malty, very sweet with a very full body without really being alcoholic or unpleasant. 070802

A hazy orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet yeasty but also contains notes of peach and alcohol. The flavor is sweet yeasty combined with notes of alcohol and a dry alcoholic finish.

Clear golden color, medium white head, some debris. Aroma is of chalk, cardboard, vanilla and candy sugar, bit spicy. Taste is sweet and dry, coriander, alcohol. Quite sharp and alcoholic palate, but not the bad metallic sharpness. Quite ok.

Fully clear old gold; thick yellowish fine & dense head. Nose with some chalk, vanilla, liqueurish, candi sugar, yellow grapes, some spicey notes. Extremely dry, so that the acidity of the carbonation is the first taste to come forward. Followed by a kind of spicey sweetness. There is more than just the carbonation. There is a burning, nearly acrid sensation. Alcohol obviously there, but it is not everything. The aftertaste gets a citrussy character. Remarkable beer. It's got NO distinctive feature whatsoever, but a burning mouthfeel. And yet I rather like it.

Cloudy light amber color, big creamy head. Strong malt aroma, light alcohol, light coriander, bitter honey. Very good malty body, lacking just some fruitness. Unluckly the palate is quite ordinary. A very good and drinkable one, for the lovers of Belgian Strong Ales, but not original.
