Aroma: “Floral hops spice (clove, pepper, and light ginger) hits up front. Moderate fruit aroma with orange, apple, pear, and peach. At the base, there’s a cracker-like malt foundation. A hint of alcohol.”

Flavor: “Big esters: banana dominates, but some pear, apple, white grape. Spiciness is a mix of peppery phenol and alcohol warmth. Medium tartness. Malt notes of honey, biscuit, and toast. Sweet, but not too sweet, and it slowly fades into a moderately dry finish.”

Overall: “Easy-drinking strong golden Belgian-style beer. I had a smoothie that tasted like this: light tartness from the yogurt with strawberry and banana flavors. I could start my day with this. Duvel-like, but sweeter and simpler.”
