Can courtesy of Jow. Thanks. Pours a clear yellow-gold color with a medium sized white head that has good retention. The aroma is soft with some grains, herbs and a bit of something peppery. Taste is malts, peppery herbs and some light citrus. Palate is clean and crisp. Finishes short and dry. overall: Not bad for a golden ale.

57 cl. can @ the villa in Üxheim, bought @ a gas station in Orlando.
Golden with a white head. Malty yeasty aroma with banana and cloves. Sweet taste with a wonderful medium bitter finish. Great spiced tripel.

Draught at source: pours lightly orange haze with white head. Aroma is ambiguously fruity, sort of citric. Taste is surprisingly not super boozy. Also not too sweet. Meh.

Draught at Philly location: pours yellow with a white head. Aroma is lightly lactic, flat fruitiness. Lightly sour, somewhat fruity. Fine but hardly exciting.

At Philly taproom: pours clear gold with white head. Aroma is weird candy citrus aroma. Sweet artificial candy and a strange aftertaste. Kind of wanted to rinse my mouth.

Slightly opalescent darker golden colour, large, dense, though not too stable ecru-ish off-white head; aroma of intensive artificial-like jaffa orange, tropical fruits and candy sugar; taste is basically the same with some hoppy bitterness and even more artificial fruity-syrupy sweetness than expected based on the aroma; it's just horrible! Definitely the biggest mistake of the brewery! Shockingly bad experience

Opalescent to hazy orange colour, half inch of dense ecru-ish head; aroma of tangerine, marmalade, candied orange peel and maybe some earthy notes; taste is the same with some hoppy bitterness and grape-like notes; not bad
