Good beer, though not much Belgian yeast flavor or aroma.
 
Notes

The calculator says use a large (3 L, 11 oz light DME) starter, or 2 packs with a 2 L starter. Careful, these will blow off!

Not much Belgian yeast flavor/aroma character with WLP530. Alternative yeasts are WLP510, 550, etc.

Attenuation was 87%, ABV 9%. This gets lost in the syncing with the smartphone app.
