Arrived cloudy and a tad darker than orange with a small head. Lacing is minimal.

Nose is mostly yeast with a little spice but not much.

Taste is overwhelmed by the yeast. THe beer menu said that the beer had sweet kale and nutmeg added at the boil but i really couldn't pick them up over the yeast. The beer finished dry with some bitterness.

Mouthfeel was medium bodied and left the mouth dry almost like cottonmouth.

I'm sure this could be sessioned by a belgium lover, but the yeast was just too much for me to want more than one.
