Not all Belgian is good. Most of it (looking at options, not gallons) certainly is, and some is just acceptable. De Koninck is one such acceptable beer. It provides a drinker with something to ponder, but it's overly flavorful, aromatic, or complex. All I might add to my review is that if you're really a fan of apple juice and lemons, this beer is for you.

Picked up a single at Syracuse's the Party Source. Appears a clear amber, no sediment, with a short white head. The aroma is surprisingly plain, with a just a hint of Belgian-spiced vanilla. The flavor does better, with a tart lemon undercurrent that builds as you drink. There's also a hit of apple juice, mild caramel and finishing peppery hops. The flavor is respectable, while the aroma leaves much to be desired. Worth a try for a sessionable Belgian.
