Nice name

Not a beer you can get often. Really enjoying it as a starter to the lineup of other Belgians tonight.

I’m not a huge fan of the pin cherry yeasts. At least I haven’t gotten them to work well and the issues have been apparent I’m friends beers that I’ve tried. However this beer is really well made and I’m not getting much of that.

There’s a nice aroma and I mostly like the phenolics from it but there’s an almost medicinal/bandaid flavor that doesn’t gel well with the subtle sweetness of the pils malt. The hops really save the day. There’s nothing to hide from in these beers, I’d love to taste some standard Belgian yeasts in this.

Carbonation was on point, nice lace on the glass. Flavor has congruency as it warms which is a huge plus on a beer like this; nothing’s hidden by the temperature.

Interested to hear what others think as it seems I’m more critical of this yeast.

Really nice yeast character upfront. Some banana and citrus notes, and spicy clove-almost cinnamon-phenolics. Little bit of a medicinal character but not much. Solid malt flavour and enough bitterness to keep it crisp. Good beer

I'm enjoying the cotton candy aromas and the lower %abv that still has Belgian character. Nice! Love the name as well. Thanks for sharing.

I'm going to try this one as a small beer to grow up some yeast to use in a tripel.

I haven't been a fan of the pin cherry yeast, but this beer was delightful. Thanks for sharing!

I have never had this style but this was very good despite my hate for the pin cherry yeast. Unfortunately I could taste it a bit but thanks to it being an excellent beer, that didn’t matter. Keep em coming!

I was not as focused on this as I would have liked to have been, but I did enjoy it. Nice big yeast character balanced with a solid malt character. Banana and some fruitiness from the yeast. Solid bitterness. A well-made beer; I'd like to taste it with a more traditional yeast.

Shared this with a few friends at a quick weeknight tasting. Interesting stuff... always amazed at how yeast transforms a beer so completely, and the pin cherry yeast definitely did so here. This reminded us of a wheat beer. Thanks for the share!
