Süßer Kaufummiantrunk zu dem später Fruchtnoten hinzukommen. Minimale Säure, weiterhin, wenn nun auch geringer, Kaugummi. Zu süß, zu künstlich. 9/8/8/8//8

Draught @ Moeder Lambic during the Stone vs Moeder Lambic event. Clear yellow colour with a small white head. Smells like spare ribs and hops. Tastes sour, applejuice and ’apfelkorn’. Good carbo, medium body.

draft@Stone vs. Moeder: slightly hazy orange with a white head, smells & tastes like sweet fruits (sweet white grapes, some apricot, peach,…) with a touch of fruity American hops, spicy Belgian yeast, slight malt, touch of white desert wine, plenty of sweet white, slight white pepper, spices, body is on the lighter side, wine grapes but unfortunately the whole thing isn’t as pronounced as I would have wanted it – I am referring to the grape-side

Draft @ Stone vs. Moeder event, Moder Lambic, Brussels. Dorée, blanche. Arôme fruité rappelant quasi des fraises, mais ce sont surement là, les raisins. Au gouté, présente qcq notes d’épices et herbacé de la camomille avec un malt et alcool réchauffant. Reste fruitée et sucrée avec encore ce goût de raisins, le tout sur une levure belge approchant une abbaye ou triple. Usage de triticale ajoute un aspect sec et de grains allant vers un profile seigle épicé.

Draught Small white head over faintly hazy pale ochre beer. Apricot, root spices, xhamomile again, citrus - coriander? Citrus again in the mouth, other grains, orange zeste, preserved oranges, mould. Slick, fruit filling. No new flavours in the aftertaste, but long-lasting citruszeste, and bit more vinous. Fruity, but not really great. I usually don’t like USA interpretations of what they think of Belgian strong ales, and this is not an exception.

Sample at Ale Wine & Spirits in Powell on 06/17/2011. The beer is a mostly clear orange-gold color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. The aroma is somewhat vinous with notes of Belgian yeast and cloves. Medium body with flavors of white grapes, grapefruit, yeast and sweet spices. The finish is fruity with a lingering yeast aftertaste. Above average overall.

Thank god Ive learned my lesson with Stone’s 22 oz bombers, and found someone to share this with. Really nice belgian ale, 9.5% is a little high abv for a truly enjoyable ale, but had about a quater of it in a tulip glass, and it was really a great beer.

On tap at The Common Table, Dallas. It pours a hazy orange colour with lively carbonation and a thin off-white head. The nose is spicy, bonfire, citrus fruit, and strong chamomile. The taste is caramel, orange, mango, pineapple, sweet white grape, wood, hay and strong chamomile, with a bitter bite towards then. There is a good balance of sweet and sour flavours. It’s really quite unusual, but enjoyable nonetheless.
