A: crystal clear; bronze colored; 1 finger khaki head that receded to a thin cap; very nice, long lasting lacing;
S: coriander, orange peel, and a little pepper;
T: a lot of flavor; from start to finish, there's a malt sweetness; up front, there is also some tart citrus, then the coriander and orange peel are added; from mid-palate through the finish, there's a little harshness to it - like you're sucking on a tea bag; it's in the background, but it's noticeable; finish is slightly bitter with some black pepper spiciness;
M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; dry finish;
O: the color and clarity threw me for a moment, but the aroma and flavor are very nice;

What is this?
I'm expecting a high-end Belgian Style beer, but ...
Pours clear, but virtually no head.
Label says orange peel and coriander. Okay...maybe. I get no coriander, and I KNOW coriander. Orange Peel? Not sure about that one either.
Taste is murky. Heavy, yet somehow drinkable if you get rid of it within 30 mins. Don't let this sit. It gets cloying and unpalatable, almost 'fishy'.
Brewer says it was inspired buy a visit to the Celis Brewery back in the mid 1990s. Too bad the brewer can't revisit it again for further refinement.
I don't want to say "avoid" but....
I have to say, reluctantly, that I've noticed a general decline in this Brewery's overall beer quality in the last 6 months or so. Not sure if they are having trouble scaling up to the larger system or what. I miss the delicious initial batches that flowed in the Summer 2013. Hasn't been the same.
