Unfiltered, unpasteurized, and uninhibited, Hardywood Singel is sunshine golden with a fluffy white head and a veil of Belgian ale yeast. A delicate body ushers tropical fruit esters into perfect balance with spicy hop aromatics. Singel’s mellow, dry finish culminates a truly ethereal experience.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy yellow-gold color with a huge creamy yellow-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was tangy, vaguely fruity, yeasty and a bit musty. The flavor was tangy, yeasty, chalky, a pit of pez and citric acid. Turns a bit dry and has a touch of cardboard. Medium length finish. Medium body. Meh.

On tap at Sharkys. Opaque pale golden with big white head. Aroma is dirty socks/yeast, light body, well carbonated, and good thin small-bubble lacing. Taste is grainy, malty, and some yeasty. Nothing to write home about.

Super crisp, golden coloured body with a nice, dense, three centimetre tall tan head - very nice and microfoamed. Aroma of ridiculously soured malt, white grapes, yeast, bread, lactic sugars and even a gueze like complexity, coupled with hay and grass - easily one of the best smelling beers i’ve been around for a long time. Medium-bodied; Strong yeast and bready notes at first with a mild, yet noticeable grape and fruit flavour. Some sour lactic notes are soon around with a hit of earth, grass, hay, coriander seed, light spice and even some cherries noticeable. Aftertaste is super complex, especially for the style - if this had a belgian-styled bottle with no label, you would have never known it wasn’t from the great country. Overall, a great beer, one with a ton of complexity, a rich sour note, yet remains a relatively easy-drinking beer. One of the better examples of this style i’ve seen from the USA in a long while - DEFINITELY worth trying if you can find it! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Falls Church (Tyson’s Corner), Virginia on 06-February-2014 for US$2,49 sampled at home in Washington on 21-July-2014.

Nice little Belgian beer. Pours cloudy pale golden with good head and lacing. Slightly hazy. Light taste of coriander and Belgian floral yeast. A little watery on palate. Soft carbonation. Some crisp barley notes on finish. Tap at Churchkey.

Pizzeria Paradiso, Alexandria tap ($5): Pours golden with a white head. Aroma is fruitiness, some spice, and some yeast. Taste is lightly bitter and dry at the finish. Nice easy drinking and well crafted Belgian Ale.
