look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3

A- 3 fingers of fluffy white head. Cloudy pale looking body. Lacing is minimal.

S- The smell is dominated by floral and fruity notes of peach, apple and pear. Belgian yeast is detectable like any good BSPA.

T- Sweet & fruity upfront, hops are noticeable in the end to go along with a big boozy finish.

M- Light body, the carbonation is a little to high. Your mouth is left feeling like a desert from the dry finish. The booze just hangs around forever it seems.

D- I really didn't like this the first time I tried it and although it's better than what I remembered, it still becomes to cloying with the sweetness and alcohol taste. There's much better BSPA's out there.

From tap to Malheur stemware.

A: Orange-apricot in color, small wispy head quickly dissipates quickly.

S: Clove-laced fruity esters, honey-infused bready backdrop. Lemon-pepper spice livens-up the aromas along with a light hoppy snap.

T: Estery sweetness up front, quickly met by a phenolic undertone and cracked peppercorn. Some orange zest ushers in a slight astingent, earthy hop tone, paired with notes of booze and sweetness. None of the flavors contradict each otber, but ultimately the brew isnt a remarkable quaff. Finished relatively short and dry.

M: Medium-bodied, fairly effervescent, drinkable.

Kind of an earthy, subdued version of the style. Drinkable but not something Id clamor for.

look: 4.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.75

A: An unrelenting foamy white head with great lacing. Bright gold body comprising strings of champagne bubbles.

S: Metallic and Pilsner like, a bit rubbery like a hefeweizen. Some sherbet.

T: A smooth balance of tartness and sweetness. Initially like an extra strong Duvel but less bready. As it warms its unique character comes through. I get a strong aftertaste of fresh lychees, rambutans and to a lesser extent green grapes. Has that wonderful laquer-like quality that I love in super strong Belgian ales yet the alcohol is not protruding. Not a hint of coriander, thank goodness. It is at times just an incy bit metallic but I suspect it's something to do with the bottle cap. Strangely, towards the dregs it starts to taste like an American citra based IPA, with lots of bitter grapefruit yet it doesn't appear to be bottle conditioned. Unique.

O: With its modest 3.97 BA rating (currently) I see this as very underrated and I doubt my bottle was 100% fresh either, seeing as I bought it on the grey market here in Korea.

330 ml botle, at home, poured carefully into a tulip glass as not to disturb the yeast.
Very clear yellow golden colour, with a hge head, almost four fingers tall, snow white in colour and soapy in texture. Good retention and lots of lacing left behind.
Aroma is mostly hops, but very subtle.
Nice taste, bitter and hoppy. The alcohol is there, but it doesn't disturb.
Citrus notes on the taste.
Medium thick body, average carbonation.
Overall, this beer is dangerously drinkable, with an ABV of 10% I should be just sipping it, but the taste was so good that made that very difficult.
