Orange/golden in hue, quick head that settles down. Not too funky, nice malty body. A fairly "standard" Belgian triple. Nothing off or weird, just good.

Rayon Vert
From Greenflash Brewing. A Belgian style, it has that hint of Belgian funk but not much. Cloudy and light in color, a high white head. Bubbly, not as much as a wine but more than I expected. It was drinkable but I won't buy more any time soon.

Mcchouffe Begian Brown Ale
Big head, lots of lacing. Very dark brown color. Scents of banana and citrus. Flavor was not tart or sour like most Belgians. Banana and citrus remain in the flavor. Thick maltiness to the body and flavor. Not really what I expected from a Belgian. Reminds me of a really good strong American brown ale. 8.5abv, so don't expect to put too many down despite the great drinkable qualities.

Smuttynose Gravitation
A Belgian style quad. Part of Smuttynose Big Beer series. A rich dark red in color. About 10ish ABV. So good, has a bit of that Belgian sour flavor to it. I am on a big sour kick right now and this has helped me along with that.

Alagash: Victoria Ale
At 9ABV, this is a strong ale. Distinctivly Belgian in character but with a cleaner golden hue, body, and finish. Very little hop flavor or scent. I don't taste any of the grapes but I feel/taste the grapes prescence in the difference from a Belgium triple. It is very easy to drink too. I am not a huge fan of wine and I was happy that the brewing with grapes did not give this any wine attributes.
