Reviewed from notes.
Can to chalice.
Appearance: muddy yellow color with a half finger's of white foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace to leave a little bit of lace
Aroma: some clove, banana-y esters, sweet grassy note, candied peaches, and a light dose of some spicy yeasty qualities
Flavor: semi-sweet with a light clove to spicy yeastiness trying to make a decent play at the balance and ends up not doing a bad job; finish of spicy yeast, bananas, clove and the sweet grassines
Texture: light to medium bodied and trying to make me believe this is a sipper when ultimately I think I could have pounded this one with several others; not as smooth as it initially led me to believe, some clove harshness
Overall: despite some flaws here and there and honestly not exactly showing real "true Belgian" character, this isn't a bad beer, it's just not exactly one that shows me the strength of a really good one to even be close to being a really great one.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear bright gold with a nice white head. Aroma of yeast/malt with a banana note. Med plus body. It's not dry, but it's far from sticky. Moderately bitter. Floral, yeast/spice and a light banana note. Pretty nice ale.
