On tap at Oud Arsenaal, Antwerp. Recommended by the guy behind the bar who we saw at the Dorstvlegel beer shop. Golden, thin white head. Yeasty, hoppy aroma. Fresh, creamy aroma. Fine in mouth, citrus/lemon/dry green hop finish. OK golden beer, drinkable enough. Bit of candy sugar.

Bottled. Hazy, orange beer with a huge white head. The bottled acted like a volcano when opened. Aroma is fruity, with apples, and hints of yeast and fusel. Fruity flavor with a little yeastiness. Sweet, light bitter finish. Can definately be done better. (060113)

Tap @ Oud Arsenaal Fruity yeasty aroma, some of that typical belgian peppery note - I really had missed that note and it was the first beer I got after I arrived in Antwerp. Cloudy golden, off-white lacing creamy head. Tropical fruit flavors (pineapple, peach). Quite fresh, allthough it was served slightly too cold for my taste as well. Medium to light body - more refreshing than complex.

Hazy yellow color, big white head. Aroma of hop, citrus, grain, spicy and yeasty. Sweet and spicy taste. Full taste. Lingering palate. Very nice beer.[br]6/29/2013: Tap @ Gollem Antwerp. Clear golden color, medium rocky head. Aroma is quite spicy of belgian yeast, bit peppery even. Soft flowery hops. Taste has only some soft sweetness, some bitterness. Pretty dry. Nice and easy drinker, pretty good for a belgian blonde.

Undated bottle, though I know these have been on the shelves since 2004, so I imagine it to be a 2003 or 2004 bottle. Consumed on 6/19/2005. Hazy-copper, rusty-orange with yellowish tints on the edges. Fluffy, thick eggshell colored head is perfectly retained. Great lacing. Bottle conditioned. Smells of rich honey wheat dough. Some white pepper. Flavor is light plants, (not boiled or veggie like), just plant roots and leaves. Quite a bit of honeyish dough. Light hops are slightly metallic and moderately bitter. Some spiciness lingers. A bit of dusty yeast on the end. Not terribly complex, but no flaws that I can find. Light wheat notes give it a bit of a smoothness on the palate. Spicy hops and baked wheat bread retronasal. Almost clove-like. Maybe some herbs (oregano or parsley). Good mouthfeel, yeast dulls it somewhat, making it a bit heavy on the end. Low carbonation, medium body, not thin.
