Bottled 750ml. -Courtesy of Jablanko, Shared with him and Marko. Darker golden coloured, small to medium sized white head, mild spicy nose without any whiff of hops. Weak hoppy, some caramel and spices with mild fruity notes. Citra & Amarillo well hidden unfortunately. Good looking bottle and not so good beer.

Enormous thanks to Jablanko, whose parents got this in France and who shared it with Ogi and me. Lovely dark golden-amber body with a small white head. More Belgian than hoppy aroma, bready, spicy, some caramel... it’s apparently dry hopped, but it’s almost unnoticeable, sweet, some bubblegum. Very light taste, again, not much hop, sweetish, one dimensional and slightly papery. Very vague notes of pear. OK, nice, but completely misleading. The idea is great, but the execution, apart from the, well, bottle, is unfortunately lacking.
