Golden coloured body with a slightly thin off-white head. Aroma of yeast, coriander seed, honey, flowers and hints of hops. Medium-bodied; Strong hoppy flavour at first with a definite yeast and wheat flavour and some strong coriander seed freshness. Afertaste shows a lot of depth with the honey, floral notes and coriander seed the strongest. Overall, a nice rich beer with a great yeastie flavour and a touch of honey sweetness. Nice to sample and a variation from what I’d typically drink, but I recommend it for others - a solid beer for the style. I sampled this pint on draught for US$5.00 at the brewpub on 08-June-2014 in Lone Tree, Colorado.

Tap @ brewery. Hazy, golden appearance with a white head. A touch spicy, coriander, a touch bready, wheat malty, Belgian yeasty aroma. Fairly clean, a touch spicy belgian yeasty, a touch tart, orange citrusy, wheat malty flavor. Pretty solid brew!

Hazy straw pour - nose of straw, light phenolics, ginger, honey - flavor is fairly dry and crisp, with some light peppery notes, a touch of banana, some flinty hints on the tail end - finish is semi-sweet, with notes of gingerbread - I would like the finish a bit drier, but otherwise this is a solid abbey single.
