Bottle. Cloudy yellow orange, offwhite head. Spicy yeast, wheatish, mandarins, spices. Mellow, chewy, fine sparkly on the tongue. Full fruityness safes it from being too phenolic. Pleasant.

Bottled. An unclear golden beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of fruits, malt, spices, and yeast. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, spices, yeast, and fruits, as well as hints of smoke, leading to a dry finish. The alcohol is felt on the tongue. Thanks fiulijn for sharing.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy light amber color. Mild aroma of banana and bubblegum. Strong mouthfeel, the malt flavor is indistinct, it’s sweetish, with some wheat and banana presence, and just too much bitterness in the end.
Not very pleasant.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a cloudy golden / murky orange with a small white head. Aroma of soft Belgian spices, some light fruitiness (banana comes to mind), and light pale malt. Flavour brings out banana and clove above anything, with some Belgian spices, yeast and a soft malt backbone. Quite enjoyable and highly drinkable with no hint of the raised ABV.
