We’ve set out to prove that an easy drinking, everyday beer can still be special.
Layers of US hops are set against a backbone of British malts, so what this beer lacks in strength, it makes up for in character.
Look out for fresh flavours and aromas of pine, peach, lychee & citrus fruits, tempered by a smoothly rounded bitterness to leave you wanting more.

1/VII/21 - on tap, shared @ Bar Beenhouwer (Gent), BB: n/a (2021-552)
Clear pale blond beer, solid creamy off-white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: bit fruity, quite some sulphur, DMS, a bit malty, wow, this is everything I’m not looking for in a beer! MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: very malty, metallic, unpleasant bitterness, sweet, some vegetables, sulphur. Aftertaste: dry, very bitter, pretty metallic, and more sulphur. That sulphur is the most offensive thing in this beer… Don’t like it at all, despite being a fan of lower ABV beers...

440ml can from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a slightly hazy yellow straw colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is malt, light lemon lime citrus. The flavour is moderate to light bitter and sweet, with a light, watery, light citrus, light hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Some flavour and refreshing, but really light and watery.

Draft. A golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has notes of hops, spices, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, spices, straw, and malt, leading to a bitter finish.
