Strong aroma of babyfood, oats, peaches, and caramel. Opaque, dingy brownish orange, with floaties, medium eggshell head. Full bodied, syrupy, chewy. Intensely tangy, sweet and sour flavor of overripe peaches. Grassy peach pit finish. Not the hoppiest beer, even from Belgium, that I have had. It is, on the other hand, quite unique. It isn’t really my thing, but I didn’t hate it. A good beer to get you out of a rut.

Pour is a murky brown with a small white head. Aroma is floral hops and not much else. Flavor is lots better with a nice herbal hop with some brown sugar and finishes with a earthy malt on the tounge. This is a decent beer but I don’t think this is the hoppiest of Belgain beers.

Bottled (Alvinne shop, 33cl)
Hazy orange color, huge off-white head. Perfumic aroma of lychee, barnyard and hay. Crisp, foamy carbonation/mouthfeel. Quite light palate for 8% beer. Very hoppy bitter, dry, light wood and hay in the flavor. Duvelish. Warming aftertaste. Interesting.

Bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a large white head that dissipated. Aroma has notes of grassy hops, yeast and caramel. Flavor is similar with the hops dominating towards the end with even a bit of pine.

Bottled. Cloudy golden liquid that explodes all over the room upon opening, spilling near half the bottle onto the floor. Herbal hoppy nose. Dry and very lively, bitter herbs are prevalent. Medium bodied with spritzy mouthfeel. Feels light and pleasantly hoppy with marked herbal bitterness.

Sample bottle at the brewery, poured by Glenn. Bright orange with a big fluffy head that lingers and leaves moderate lacing. Aroma of bread, orange peel and coriander. Dominant malts with complex spiciness. Good body. Excellent Belgian style IPA.

Bottled (from Belgian Shop). Hazy deep amber colour with a small fluffy white head. Some lace. Aroma is rather sweet malts along with some slight alcohol as well as spices and herbs. Flavour is being quite much the same, along with some slight spicyness. A bit grassyness in the finish. Zesty and alcoholic in the finish. Still in a nice balance.
