Bottle: Poured a deep brown color ale with a nice slightly off-white foamy head with some good retention and some lacing. Aroma of sweet malt contains some dry fruits characteristics which are quite enjoyable. Taste is also dominated by some dry fruits characteristics with some nice candi sugar notes. I didn’t notice that much of a hoppy presence as I was expecting but nonetheless I very much enjoyed the experience. Full body with some great carbonation and no alcohol was detectable.

@ GJBF 2007. Another suprise at the festival. Aroma of berries, sweet malts, toasted, some alcohol and light floral. Flavor was outstanding. Fruity, spices, berries, sugary malts, cherries, light bitterness, and an alcohol finish. Dry, syrupy body. Really outstanding. refreshing.

Shared with Kinz for an impromptu tasting. Clear golden body with a small off-white head. Sweet caramel and heavy spice aroma. Sweet scaramel flavor with some champagne and light spice. carbonation gives it odd flavor.

Pour is a hazy yellow with a active white head. Aroma is very nice with lots of fruits like apple, lemon and banana. Flavor is very rich with lots of carbonation. Lots of lemon and hops with some spice and honey. A very tasty ale from Belgium.

Bottel. Creamy white excellent mostly lasting head. yellow colour, small particles. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma with nice citric notes. Moderate bitter flavor, average finish. Creamy almost astringent palate. not worth the money. Champagne (the right stuff) is much better!!!!

Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a slightly cloudy yellow color with a medium sized yellow-white head. The aroma was lightly sweet with a hints of lemon. There were light spicy and citrusy undertones. There was a light hint of honey. The alcohol was mildly noticeable.

Bottle in the company of Doppelganger, Tracey and Loz. Poured with the most lively white amazingly frothy head that gently subsided to reveal a soft hazy, lemon coloured beer waiting below. The aroma was instantly spicy and with a dash of yeast and sweetness was very alluring. The taste rather took me by surprise as it was a fierce explosion of complex, bittersweet flavours led by the spices, yeast, and sweet malts. Whilst the flavour lingered for some time the intensity soon waned, and whilst this is indeed a very good beer I felt the expectation was never quite lived up to.
