Got this one for free because I had bought for 70$ worth of beer... Not sure I would have tried this one :)

Anyway, nice copper color. Veiled. No head :(. The aroma is sugary, some spices and fruits. Good aroma. Inviting. Fruits are dominated by apple. Quite effervescent (carbonation).

On the taste, it is spicy up-front. A little bit too much, but its ok. Some bananas. Quite carbonated in the mouth, it feels thin-bodied. But this is a strong beer.

Overall a pretty decent beer, and I'm surprise... in a good way. Worth a try.

It would gain if it was less spicy in the taste...

Shared with my wife last night over our take-out Chinese.

Poured from a 500ml. bottle.

Appearance: A light honey-brown body with lots of sticky white foam and average retention. Pretty good coating all down the glass.

Smell: Banana, spices, yeast, bubble gum and citrus. Very good aroma.

Taste: Starts with a bit of sugar and banana. A bit peppery in the end and my wife gets smoked gouda. The flavors feel muted and not very lively.

Mouthfeel: Smooth but lacks real depth. Medium carbonation but the body is a bit watery.

Overall: Glimmers of being good at first but overall this Belgian-style ale falls too short.
