draft@Chez Moeder Lambic: hazy orange with a big, fluffy, descending white head that leaves lovely thick lacing on the inside of the glass, taste is bitter with a pungent bitter aftertaste, initial bitterness is very herbal with definite floral elements, lots of those kinds of hops & lots of grass, hay, the yeast presence also slightly goes over into the body, touch of barnyard funk, bitter orange/lemon peel, the bitter aftertaste that kicks in at the finish and lingers on afterwards if bitter herbal, slight floral with some bitter lemon peel, bit of a one-note bitter Belgian but not necessarily a bad one

Draft @ Moeder Lambic Fontainas, Brussels. Couleur dorée présentant un léger trouble, col épais blanc. Arôme de levure avec houblon citronné et qcq houblons aromatiques, le tout reste assez faiblard, mais démontre des notes dans le style belge. En bouche, bière reste douce, note de levure, houblon belge/allemand avec une fine amertume de citron. Petite pointe de fruits ou herbacé avec vers la fin une levure et houblon donnant une légère note épicée. Reste sèche.

Draft. An unclear golden beer with a white head. The aroma has strong notes of fruits - especially peaches, combined with notes of coriander and yeast. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of coriander and fruits, leading to a dry, spicy, and hoppy bitter finish.

23rd April 2010. Bottle at the Rake (Cellar job courtesy of Rich - cheers mate!). Hazy light gold beer with a few floating bits! Light dry palate. Lagerish malt with an odd but not unpleasant cucumber and lychee taste. Finishes dry and crisp. Original rating 2.8.

31st October 2011
On tap at Open Baladin.
Hazy gold beer, little white head. Softish semi dry palate. Fine carbonation. Creamy malt supports nice fresh orangey hops. Marmalade bitterness. Sweetish finish with stinging carbonation. Nice to taste some hops in Italy!
