750mL bottle into a Duvel tulip glass...

A: Pours a slightly hazed orange with a cotton white, two-finger head; leaves some specks and spots of lace.

S: Bread crust and cracker malts; coriander-esque spice with some pepper and fruity yeast tang.

T: Like nose, but a little boozy and fruitier (pear); some lemon thrown into the ester mix, too.

M: Heavy, oily mouthfeel; high carbonation.

O: Drinkability impaired by the booziness and big mouthfeel; nothing really stood out for me with this one.

4.29/5  rDev +3.9%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

Appearance: Cotton foam with a thin ring of lacing as the foam disappears. Gold color.

Smell: Lemon, grapefruit, and sourdough. Very light for a strong ale.

Taste/Mouthfeel: Plums, raisins, and some licorice. Excellent spritzy feel combined with a full-bodied mouthfeel that is surprisingly heavy for a light-hued beer.

Overall Drinkability: Better than Ommegang Abbey.

Serving type: on-tap

a: This was a slightly hazy, somewhat dark golden color. It poured with a thick, creamy head that left behind lots of lace.

s: Big, yeasty esters of slightly earthy bananas. Bright, fresh, sugary tropical fruit and bready grains. Some peppery yeast emerged as it warmed.

t: Sweet tropical fruit early, getting pretty sugary toward the middle. Drier, yeasty finish; peppery, light barnyard.

m: Soft and lush.

o: Another very good beet from Ommegang. No surprise there. Not quite up among my favorites from them, but knocking on the door for sure.
