Can - Toffee, grains and some orange. Clear gold with a thin head that disappears quickly. Grains and light caramel sweetness. Light bitterness but almost flat. Overall a very mellow beer, almost too much so.

Canette 473ml. De couleur ambrée et claire. Nez malté de caramel toffee, léger de sucre brûlé et de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses et terreuses ainsi que quelques notes de biscuits. Mince-moyenne en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture aux notes huileuses. Faibles notes de légumes bouillis sucrés accompagné de traces fruitées lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût de grains de malt sucrés aux faibles traces rôties avec un léger goût de biscuits et des traces de sucre brûlé puis en finale l’on retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon floral aux notes terreuses et herbeuses ainsi que quelques traces de noix. Post-goût moyen-court et aux petites notes sèches, très légèrement amer de houblon floral avec des traces de noix et de rôti.

This amber poured a deep amber colour with a nice, fast living, bright white head. To the nose there are scents of citrus hopps, pineapple, malt, citrus and more citrus. First sip was smooth and a little watery but drinkable. Flavours of malt and citus hopps most prodominant although not as citrusy as expected from the aroma. Finsh is slightly bitter with malty flavours lasting.

Deluxe... hen ? Not too sure coming from Amsterdam. Nice change with the bottles. Green with no labels, but all the writing, painted right on them. Pretty nice new image (and still staying away from the brown bottles). Pours a clear amber colour with an off-white creamy head that disappears at a medium-slow pace and leaves decent lacing. Not much carbonation. The aromas are mostly roasted and caramel malts with a bit of hop. Medium-bodied with a dry finish and not much aftertaste. Nice consistent bitterness throughout with the grainy caramel malt in the back. The burnt malt is also present which is nice for an amber brew. One of their better beers for sure.

A golden amber ale with a thin white head. Aroma of nutty malts and oily solvents. In mouth, not too bad, a nutty malt with some nice clean biscuitty notes, mundane. Correct.
