Kolor jasno żółty, niemal klarowny. Piana biała, zbudowana z drobnych i średniej wielkości pęcherzyków, wysoka i trwała. Delikatnie zaznacza swoją obecność na szklance.
Aromat średnio intensywny, słodowy, chmielowy (owocowy).
Walory smakowe prawie idealnie zbalansowane, prawie ponieważ nad chmielową goryczką i słodową słodyczą wybija się delikatna nuta kwaskowa.
Wysycenie średnie, musujące. Tekstura prawie gładka. Ciało średnie w dół. Posmak średnio długi, kwaskowy, owocowy.

F**k it was late, I was tired, we have had lots of fun and lots of beers. This one was citric, hoppy and quite nice. Will try it sometimes more.

Bottled, enormous thanks poech! Murky amber-orange body, white head. Hmm... a bit tired aroma, some quite vague citric-tropical aroma under some yeasty-dry malty touches. The taste is actually quite nice, almost lovely though! Very good, smooth tropical-peachy-citric hoppiness on a smooth, soft, pillowy background, ending with a mild, well integrated light herbal bitterness. Oooh, I can definitely see this being fantastic when really fresh. Sadly, the aroma pulls it down. I still upped the score by 0.1.

Bouteille 33cl de Carrefour Market, Ghislenghien. BB 02/09/2021.
Dorée, col épais blanc.
Arôme offre un bouquet fin tropical rappelant un houblonné US de C-Hops, petite note verte, herbacée et léger fruité tropical; Le grain perce finement en retrait.
Palais est léger, fin malté pils, assez sec au niveau de la levure. Retrouve un houblonné fin très américain - agrumes, tropical avec pointe de fruit de la passion - mangue, citron vert - sur la fin l'ajout de la levure apporte une petite note épicée et une sécheresse persistante.
