Bouteille 33cl à guingette du Parc du Cinquantenaire. Bottled 06/2021.
Dorée, col blanc épais.
Arôme est plus centrée sur les grains - malt pils et pâle, rétro un peu grains concassés avec note de levure persistante. Houblonné est moyen et je le trouve un peu discret avec un retrait herbacé et fleuri sous qcq soupçons d'agrumes.
Palais reste assez classique, d'emblée le corps de cette bière me semble passé, impression de vieux grains et un houblonnage en retrait - peut-être l'effet du tout organique ?

Bottle at restaurant. Almost clear golden with white head. Grassy hops, crisp malts, soft lime, a touch of dry yeasty notes. Light sweet and nice medium bitter. Crisp medium body, a bit dry with sparkling carbonation. Decent.

Bottle. Golden pour. Aroma of grassy hop, grainy malt, grapefruit, orange and dry yeast. Taste has soft juicy grapefruit, grainy malt, grassy bitter hop, dry yeast, citrus and a little pine. Fine Belgian pale ale, the bitter hops work well with the yeast.

21/I/20 - 33cl bottle from a trade, shared @ home, BB: 16/X/19, bottled: 16/X/18 (2020-69) Thanks to Bierridder_S for the trade!
Food pairing: grilled garlic butter lobster and risotto
Clear deep blond beer, big creamy dense white head, stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: hint of banana, fruity, some peaches. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: nice bitterness, malty, little fruity, hint of banana. Aftertaste: malty, nice bitterness, some citrus, grapefruit, peaches, bit grassy, hay, decent, not great, but that’s probably due to age. My bad. I’ll be mild on scoring this one.
Good pairing result: the bitterness goes well with the buttered lobster and creamy risotto, without being too overpowering for the subtle sweet lobster meat.

Rye pale ale hopped with Simcoe, Amarillo and Chinook by this new bicycling-themed beer company, longneck bottle from a health food store in Ghent. Very thick and frothy, egg-white, membrane-like lacing, stable head, initially clear pale straw blonde robe with pale apricot tinge, misty with sediment. Aroma of green onions, unripe banana, lime blossom, raw potato juice, old 'herbes de Provençe', pear, lemonbalm, white bread slices. Fruity onset, some banana, pear, green melon, touch pineapple, restrained in sweetness; lively carbonation, slick and soapy mouthfeel. White-bready maltiness with lingering 'green-yellow' fruitiness but lots of weedy, moderately zesty hoppiness as well, quite aromatic, with leek-, lime- and lemonbalm-like impressions retronasally, providing a long-lasting, yet not too harsh bitterness in a finish which also exhibits chalky and lingering soapy aspects. The rye has established more soapiness and slickness (almost wheat-like) here than typical 'dull' spiciness, so I probably would never have guessed its presence hadn't I known; modern hopping and a relatively clean profile place this beer in the same stylistic approach and quality level as that BMX IPA I had earlier, but I think adding some more cara malt and upgrading the hop dosage a bit could really improve this beer further. In this form still a very enjoyable, modern quenching ale, with only light Belgian-yeasty aspects (banana ester). Quite nice, but not as nice as the BMX IPA; I heard a white IPA is on its way as well so looking forward to tasting that one too.
