Initial ’90 recipe – purportedly the first Belgian-styled ale ever commercially produced in America –  comes to life again in bottled ’13 version. Honeyed citric spicing and candi-sugared tropical fruiting contrast fungi-molded black peppering quite efficiently. Peppy hop bittering underlines lemony peach-pear-apple-grapefruit splendor, gentle curacao orange tartness and white-caked vanilla creaming. Doughy pastry-like apple buttering and rummy banana-coriander-clove nuances increase succulent splendor of world class Belgian strong ale.
