look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

Poured from 11.2oz bottle with no date.

A: Pours a deep gold body with an almost pure-white head with great retention and some good lacing.

S: Smells of strong clove with other spices, bananas, apricot, and a little bit of yeast. Very appealing.

T: Same as the smell, however the taste is much more smooth and complete. Flavors hit almost the same across the palate. Very mellowed out, but still complex.

M&D: Mouthfeel is fantastic, creamy smooth and well carbonated. Drinkabilty is very high seeing as how the alcohol doesn't come out through the delicious flavor.

750ml bottle: Pulled the cork from this and found that it said 2006 on it. It should be interesting to see how it has held up after almost 7 years. It opened with a fairly loud "POP". It pours a fairly clear, darker golden color. There was a small white head on it that didn’t linger long or leave much lacing. The aroma is good, but a bit subdued. Definitely yeasty and bready nose. Lighter aromas of spice, banana and lemon. Maybe a touch of Brett. The taste is very good. It is extremely smooth. Bready, lightly spiced, hint of lemon. A very small hint of sourness. Very nice!

2009 is stamped on the cork
(Served in a tulip glass)

A- This beer pours a hazy golden orange body after a soft pop of the cork and a thin big bubbled ring of white is supported by a lazy carbonation.

S- The clean aroma has a soft dry grapefruit Brett not to it but that is about it.

T- The mineral water flavor blends with some dry caramel malt and a soft dry bitterness in the dry finish. There is some Brett grapefruit notes that grow just a bit as the beer opens.

M- This beer has a light mouthfeel with no real carbonation and no alcohol heat noticed.

O- This beer is nice to drink even though more carbonation would have really helped out. The Brett flavor carries the beer as the rest is pretty light. I was surprised at the taste when I pulled the cork and saw it was a 2009.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4.5

Beer is slightly cloudy golden with a large white head. Head recedes at a moderate pace. Only a bit of lace.

Smell contains yeast and bread pretty strongly. Some grassy and lemon notes. Quite floral.

Taste is yeast focused, with bready and spicy flavours. Noble hops. A bit of citrusy fruit in there, mainly lemon. Fairly dry, a bit bitter.

Medium bodied, highly carbonated. In keeping with the style but too carbonated for my tastes.

Overall, very good.
