Aroma of citrus, floral hops (sorachi ace?), some spicy yeast. Flavour is fruity and hoppy, with light to medium bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice and refreshing hoppy Belgian ale.

Bottle @ home. Clear amber colour, creamy white foam, medium carbonation. Best before 2015. Sweet aroma of candy, honey, sweet malts. Light bitterness, hoppiness faded away (because of expiration). Reminds me a lot of Moeder Overste.

Ugyanaz az óriási hab, mint a sima Hopus-nál, ugyanolyan tartós is. Illatában a citrus elnyom szinte minden mást, de az enyhe édeskés jelleg azért megmarad. Ugyanaz a ízvilág, csak hozzá csapódik a citrus, ami kellemes pluszt ad a sörnek. Talán egy picit keserűbb.

Bottle. Orange-golden in color and with a dense, off-white head leaving lacings. Citrusy aroma, oranges mostly, with some oxidized malts and a touch of caramel. There’s quite a lot of bitterness in the flavor, with some alcohol, grass and hops. Oxidation notes, pale malts and some white sugar. Full body, soft carbonation, rather dry. Long, bitter and grassy finish. Not really sure about this one. Some of it good, but mostly it’s rather bland. 150522
