Very smooth and drinkable. Extremely so for a 8% beer. One of the smoothest beers I've ever tasted and bursting with flavours. Yeast, malt, lemon, pineapple. Very much like a souped-up witbier in my opinion. Beautiful!

Ripe pear in the nose with some grass and some baking space and biscuit. Slightly fogged medium Amber body topped with a large white head with good retention and decent lace. Mouth is medium-bodied slightly sick and very tingly carbonation that's a present in the view but definitely on the tongue. Really clean finish on the beer is the first thing I notice. And the finish is very short. Getting a hint of pear and the sweetness the cardamon comes through significantly in the mid taste even though I didn't really pick it up much in the nose. It's just a little pepper to it and a nicely balanced minimal but appropriate hop bite towards the end. Very well done beer thinking I might like it more than Duvel.

It pours out a cloudy yellow like a Belgium should. The aroma is of malt, yeast and citrus. The mouthfeel is rich with just a tad of fizz. The taste has a very light hop note but it’s smooth made up from sweet malt.

A light cidery golden ale from Belgium, after as many as i have had it really doesnt seem all that special. A decent hop prescence, seems fairly tripel-ish. Tasty beer.

Sample I got fizzed quite a bit when I opened the bottle, but not so much that I needed a towel - just had to pour some out before it got messy. Aroma is fruity, yeasty and a bit woody, not strong but still appealing. Pours a nice clear bright solar yellow with a thick and fluffy, if none too persistent, white head. Flavor is better and stronger than what the aroma promised - fruity, malty, a little yeasty with a hint of butterscotch. Must be butterscotch. Texture is firm-bodied and a little syrupy; fizz is not strong but lasts, leaving a nice, fruity, tingly, slightly sweet finish. Worth ten bucks for 750 ml? Definitely.

Wish List beer! Snatched this one while last in oHIo @ Belmont Party Supply in Dayton. Light golden amber pour with a short-lived white head, big lacing, nice carbonation. Sweet fruit and yeasts aromas, very slightly funky, more ripe fruits, honeysuckle and some floral in the nose. Nice flavor - very slightly warming - blend of floral, hops, yeasts, fruits, good balance of hops to malt sweetness. Delightful beer - cool Gnome. Will revisit this one. Just as I expected.

Nice amber color with huge foam head, sticking to glass the way I like it. Drinks smoothly with good bitter and fruity aftertaste. Perfect beer. (Velp 201111)

pours a golden amber with a large, frothy, white head. Dissipates quite quickly, leaving a film. The aroma consists of candied fruit. orange, sugar, sweet malt, yeast and some spice. It's a wonderfully sweet aroma. The taste has sweet malt upfront, rather bready with some candied fruit in there as well, with orange, lemon and some green grape. White pepper and a general spicy taste. Alcohol noticeable. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, a bit thin. Strong carbonation.
