A Belgian-style ale to awaken the palate with a call of spicy, fruity yeast notes and a roasty malt character. Raise a glass and rule the roost.

A very pretty medium red with no lacing or head.
Flavor is yeasty and malty and earthy. Has a rather unpleasant element; burnt sugar is probably the best way to explain it. Carbonation is light and pleasant.
Would be a good beer were it not for the weird burnt flavor. Not recommended.

Clear orange amber with one finger of white head.
Smell is white pepper and bubblegum.
Taste is bubblegum herbal grassy hops and bready malt. The Belgian style yeast is right up front.
Mouthfeel is strong carbonation and medium bodied. Finish is lightly bitter and dry.
Overall a tasty beer.

Love this brew! Wish it was more than seasonal. Have recommended it to 2 people who have bought it and given it out for others to try. 6 out of 6 loved it!

Bottle from Bi-Mart in Baker City. Pours out amber with thick fluffy head. Aroma of Belgian yeast and candy sugar. Works in aroma, but in taste and finish becomes a bit cloying. Sweet malt underlies the whole beer, making for a sugary experience.

22 oz bottle purchased from Walmart in S.Salem!!!!! $1.97 Pour a light amber. red colour with a lovely thick and creamy off white head. Aromas. of Belgian yeast esters, sour apple and green plums..very nice actually. , Taste is similar to the aromas..a bit more subdued though..but its there..has also some black pepper aspects that work well. Mouth feel is good..well carbonated with a dry finish..very good for style. A very good Belgian style for the price...amazing really for under $2 a bomber
