    I tried it here last week. It tastes like somebody sprayed me in the mouth with perfume. Its interesting at first and then it becomes undrinkable. Glad I didnt pay for it. Drainpour for sure.

    When you play the game of brews, you drink or you drain pour.

    Picked up a bottle at Whole Foods this morning. Hoping I can get one of those glasses to drink it out of.

    Thought it was alright, nothing too great though. Definitely not getting again at the price point.

    I just saw this in a Total Wine by my house. Should have picked up a bottle.

    Wasn't bad, but wasn't very good either. Mainly got it just for the bottle.

    Picked on up today at Wegmans, paid $8.50. Comparable to many other corked n caged bottles. Worth it for the label alone (instead of searching for the best bottled on date, like i sometimes do on IPA's, I picked up and put down about 5 bottles looking for the cleanest label, doh!).

    Great Review! I haven't cracked mine open yet, but I am even more excited now that I was when I purchased the bottle. I firmly agree that when it comes to many great beers, often belgians, less is more. Looking forward to this one.

    We found it here in Brighton, MA at Walsh Liquors. The owner had just unpacked it moments ago. And by a happy mishap, we previously bought some other Ommegang beer, thinking we weren't going to be able to find it anywhere.
