(bottle) Clear golden and effervescent hue with a stable foamy white/yellow medium head. Sweet malty aroma with fruits (peach, orange) and traces of alcohol and grass. Sweet flavour, medium body, lively carbonation. Initially strong malty taste with peach; yeasty and clove-spicy and slightly alcoholic.

Bottled. Yellow-orange beer with a nice white head. Aroma is sweet with some spicy notes. Sweet flavor of citrus and malt. Full body. The name probably sells more than the beer, but it is not bad. Rating: 5-4-6-3-14-3.2. 051210
Bottle. It’s a clear, golden beer topped by a dense, off-white head. Alcohol, white sugar and fruits on the nose and in the flavor, rather uninteresting both, but not bad. Medium to full body, warming, and with a pleasant bitterness in the end. I guess my palate has changed a bit since last rating, almost five years ago. It’ s still not a bad beer, but I’ll take a Duvel over this one anytime. Rating: 4-3-4-3-8-2.2. 100521
Bottle. It pours a slightly unclear golden body under a small, white head leaving some lacings. Fruity nose with some alcohol and yeast. Rather generic fruityness that is. Very carbonated, quite warming and a bit thin on the palate. Very alcoholic in the end. Fruit, sugar and some yeast in the flavor, decent bitterness to prevent it from going out of balance. Well, last time I rated it, it obviously didn’t do me any good. This time it’s better, but it’s still far from reacing Duvel’s levels, way too focused on the alcohol as it is. 101105

Rating # 666 hee hee. I was holding on to this one for that #. Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a small amount of floaters and a large yellow-white head. The aroma is sweet, yeasty and tangy. The flavor is rather sour and tangy with a hint of caramel and butterscotch and a yeasty finish. There is a bit of an alcohol burn. The mouthfeel is moderately thick. The tanginess is a bit of a detraction to the overall flavor.

A hazy orange beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of spices and yeast. The flavor is sweet malt with primary notes of yeast, leading to a dry end.

Huge, pale beige-amber head, dense and condensing in a peculiar way, leaving textbook lace; orange-amber unclear beer. Creamy nose, preserved capers or gherkins, malt or greenmalt. Sweet taste with a weird, milky-sourish background. Bit of milkchocolate vying with low doses of several unidentifyable spices. Buttery, no diacetyl - sweaty? Warming up, almondy alcohol flavour. Bit fizzy acidity. Very creamy MF, buttery, slick, well bodied despite the acidic touch and carbonation. Restrained but unmistakable alcoholwarming. Disconcerting beer, seems primarily not blended well. But it is more OK to drink, than trying to analyse this one, I think.

Ein hopfiger und alkoholischer Geschmack dominieren den Antrunk bei diesem Bier. Der alkoholische Biegeschmack verflüchtigt sich zum Glück recht schnell und macht das Bier somit gut trinkbar. Im Nachgeschmack ist eine dezente Herbe schmeckbar, ansonsten ist es recht unauffällig. Für Sortenliebhaber ein absolutes muss! Test vom 9.8.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,9,9,10,9,9 - 9,15

Orange, hazy color, good cloudy head. Sweetish fruity nose (apricot, mango, sugar). Citrus acidy flavor in the start then turns more fruity, aftertaste is even a bit dry and woody.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark golden with a reddish glow. Flat, greasy looking head sticking to the glass. Appears more full-bodied with less pronounced alcohol than it’s golden sibling. To be preferred of the two. 040798
