330ml bottle: BB 15th Aug 2020, brewed at De Proef Brouwerji in Belgium, by Vault City Brewing. Drank at home on 1st Apr 2020. Poured into a rarely used stemmed tulip glass from Yuengling Brewery. Slight haze to the straw blonde body, white head with lacing. Yeasty, citrusy nose and taste, more lemons and grapefruit than other 'tropical fruits', sour and tart.

[33cl bottle from Beer52.] A straw coloured pour with a billowing white head; sour grainy aroma with some yeast in the background; sharp and sour in the mouth with grapefruit and tropical fruit; and a sour finish. Unrelenting in its sourness. Not for me.

Brilliant white rocky head left a tight bubbly cover on a cloudy, vivid lemon coloured still body. Sour vinous aroma with floral & gooseberry. Medium bodied, very sharp on the front with a softer cloying back. Bitter, tangy sour tastes with pineapple, lemon & chalk tastes.

Hazy yellow beer. Tart, zesty aroma. Flavour has a good sharp sour fruit hit up front, with a bit of breadiness and some hoppiness following up. I love the way this is balanced.

33cl bottle from Beer 52. Thin creamy white head. Hazy golden pour. Sour aftertaste. Don't get the bitterness as the sourness overpowers it.
