Bottle at SinH4’s Goodbye Event. A prototype of a Belgian ale, everything is just right, and it also has character. Smooth.

Golden copper color with white head. Fruit esters, banana, grassy hops, full caramel taste. Not too exciting, but just nothing wrong. Soft but high carbonation. Great beer!

Bottle. Pours with a hazy golden yellow hue with a huge white head. Aromas are of sweet and dried fruit, apples and pears. Very yeast driven. Dehydrated apricot. Mild floral. Smells quite sweet. Light malt. Flavor is yeasty, spiced apple, pear, light cardamom, some phenolic pepper. Soft bready and biscuity malt. Some floral notes. Hop bitterness is low (I wish it was higher). A bit sweet overall as well. Lively carbonation, off dry.

Bottle. A bit excited to finally have the American trappist beer. Well, it looks quite nice, with an unclear, orange-colored body and a dense, finger-thick off-white head. The aroma is fruity and lightly sugary, with a spiced and herbal touch, canned peaches and some pine cones and grass. It’s full-bodied and quite effervescent, semi-dry. There’s canned peaches, white sugar, bitterness, some pine cones and a herbal hint in the flavor, all lasting for some time. Quite herbal bitter in the very end. A decent one indeed, although not at the same level as the older Trappist beers. But sure nice to taste. 150610

Bottle courtesy Omgrich of and shared with the Shape crew. Orangée, col fin blanc. Arôme est très agréable, fruité et ester, houblon renfermé qui rappel très bien le bouquet belge, presque de Westmalle. Garde un léger herbacé, fruité noble. Palais de malt pâle, caramel, note de levure belge très distincte, houblon noble et un profil ester qui offre une petite dose fruitée de banane. Reste simple dans l’approche, facile à boire, franchement bien faite avec une complexité qui progresse au fur et à mesure de la dégustation.
