Bottle at home. Hazy golden/ pale amber with white head. Sweet malts, elderflower, citrus, vegetal juices, cow parsley and massive Arnica, pine, mild spices and herbs. Moderate sweet and light bitter. Medium body, soft malty feel and soft sparkly carbonation. Very lovely rich aromas and well balanced. My love for the herbal and floral mix juices from Labietis runs deep. Can’t believe these low scores. A complete forest hike in yo face! Bier met tieten.

0.33 l bottle from ’Het Biermoment’, bottled in June 2017. Slightly hazy, golden amber with a large, frothy, stable, white head. Sweetish, floral, quite fruity, slightly grassy and a little herbal aroma of lemon peel, pineapple, hay, elderflower and maybe some pine. Intense, moderately sweet, slightly bitter, fruity-grassy, floral and quite herbal taste of lemon peel, pineapple, honey, elderflower, hay and a touch of pine, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, slightly grassy and rather herbal finish with the pine shoots coming to the foreground. Medium body, very smooth but rather effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Very interesting stuff, didn’t know what to expect, works out very well in the end. The herbs are not too prominent and the refreshing character of the beer is not spoiled at all.
