Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

UPDATED: SEP 18, 2011 On tap at The Monk. Pours a hazy orange-yellow with a big, fluffy white head. The aroma has light fruits (pear, apple), cloves, sweet esters and banana followed by big notes of passionfruit. Taste brings out sweet malts, banana, orange and bread at the forefront. Punchbowl fruits follow and finish. Palate is soft and bubbly. A

Cask at Get Real NY. Belgian yeast, fruity aroma, bananas, candy, light sweetness, complex. Would love to try this again when I more sober.
