750 ml bottle purchased at Whole Foods. 2007 vintage.

Pours a golden orange. Nice looking beer.

Smell is corriander, clove, belgian yeast.

Taste is good - belgian yeast, sweet candy sugar malt, corriander and some orange as well. Really a nice take on the style, and this has aged wonderfully. Not really oxidized. Smooth as can be - once cohesive flavor sweep with many nuances as opposed to distinct flavor peaks.

Mouthfeel is nice for the style. Carb is very pleasant.

This was very drinkable and enjoyable. Great beer!

A-a hazy gold with two fingers worth of white fluffy head

S-pale bready malt, citrus, yeasty, with light spices

T-really nice tasting, pale malt, fruit flavors of peaches and pears, bit of spice, and a light bit of hops at the end. Alcohol is very well hidden.

M-medium body, nice spicy carbonation, sweet finish

Overall this is very easy to drink, I can't believe it's 11%! A really great tasting beer.
