Bottle Orange, hazy body with an off-white rocky head. Very lovely view. Nose of hops, yeasts. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet initial flavour. Moderately bitter finish. Some typical yeast flavours of Marc De Bondt, creator of this beer. Not bad, a nice bitter Belgian ale.

Very hazy orange beer with ochre "shine"; dense, white-rosy head, irregular. Spicey-sweet nose, fruity, artificial strawberry-like, touch of ginger. Rather oppressive spicey taste, sweetish with a spicey bitterness overlying. Dull. Some alcohol obvious, reasonably well-bodied. For crying out loud. IMO, as a microbrewer you’re vying for your place in the world by taste against the big ’unes. This might be one of theirs - and they’d get it more consistent anyway. Or where the supporters not to be shocked?
