Poured from a bottle obtained at Lone Hill Liquors in Glendora. Inhaled aroma after pour to find a very, very faint fruitiness/maltiness; not much like a normal Belgium. The taste was the same. Maybe some apple, apricot, something but almost not enough to even be worth figuring out. I get light malts and finishes slightly bitter. Malty bitter really. Very boring beer. I won't get it again.

Great taste, smooth feel. My first two out of the six-pack had lots of foam but the rest were better, so I'm not sure what that means. Possibly due to where I bought them?? Either way, I really liked this beer and would recommend it to others as a beer to drink with food and during colder weather (since the first time I drank it in the summer and wished I had something a little lighter!). The name and description on the side suggests something quite light and even "Belgian", however I would put it in a pale ale category for sure since it is heavier.

Good beer. However the last of them lingered in my fridge for awhile. This usually means I don't quite love it and forget about it after drinking most of the pack, but enjoy the last one or two when I see the last of them behind a carton of milk. Bonus!

This will be my beer for the summer. Great drinkability and great flavor. Very smooth, yet still has a hoppiness to it. I would consider it closer to an amber rather than a pale. Delicious scent as well. The color is a light amber. It is definitely on the sweet side and is not for everyone, but I loved it.
