Pours a clear light golden colour, much like costume jewelry. Head is a pleasant frothy meringue of pure white that collapses in its own airy nothingness. Looks quite refined. Not bad overall.
Nose is pleasantly savoury, with a pleasant sprightly champagne character overarching everything else. Light dustiness and a refined sharp Belgian note. Quite a nice nose overall.
Taste is quite light, but has that pleasant Belgian yeast character drying the palate, and leaving a slightly roasted nut flavour. There's certainly not a huge amount on it, but it's pleasant enough, even though the back palate is slightly too sweet.
Not a bad beer all up. It's certainly very light and extremely drinkable, despite its ABV. I've had far better and far more complex Belgian ales, but this one is a pretty decent one.

Golden color with a puffy head like a Belgian for sue.
Aroma of yeast, malts with sweetness.
Taste follows the nose with a touch of booze.
Medium body, medium carbonation and decent balance.

Pour cloudy golden. Smell is typical, with banana, clove, belgian spices and yeasts. The taste has all of that but with some peach on the end. Was hoping for sinfully good, but this is just sinisterly mediocre.

Sampled this in Japan for a break in their bland beers and hit the spot. Nice funky yeast and sort of an apricot taste. Love it and the novelty label.

L: gives of a clear orange color , a good and high amount of head when i pour in the glass,but the head disolves rapidly, decent lacings on the glass.
S: yeast, malt, spices like cloves and peppers, fruit like banana and orange.
T&F: yeast,fruity and a sour finish is what i will say. it starts of with the sweet yeast and fruity backnotes, the finish is sour with spicy notes in the flavour. warming feel almost immediatelly
O: A decent enough beer , but nothing more than that. Not to impressed with the flavour.

From elcervecero. In La Corne glass. Playing Tomb Raider 2015. A bit alcoholic but not unplesant thanks to a well placed sweetness

Served in my bedroom, in a Satan glass! I had the red one a while ago and really liked.
Looks great in the glass. Quite bubbly. Deep amber colour,
Aroma is not the best, and quite carbon dioxidey. Elements of banana coming through.
Tastewise, it's taste reminds me of a French beer. It's like a fusion of Kronenbourg with a typical Belgian amber ale. Quite banananey.
Improves as it warms up.
Seems a bit too carbon-dioxidey in my view. Not as good as the red, though it was a while since I had!
