This is a 7.5% ABV bottle-conditioned ale brewed with spices for Trader Joe's by Unibroue of Chambly, Quebec, Canada. The bottle indicates it has ginger and citrus peel. The beer pours a dark yellow golden in color. It is lightly hazed. There is a tall, fizzy, white head that disappears quickly. The aroma is yeasty, with some tart notes and lots of banana esters, lightly sweet in a pastry dough way, with a touch of ginger. The taste follows the aromas quite directly. This drinks like a liquid semi-sweet pastry that has banana along with light ginger and orange and lemon peel. The finish is quite dry with a floral bitterness. It is unbelievable the price Trader Joe's is able to put on these well-crafted beers by Unibroue.
