From old notes - tasted several years ago, but apparently I forgot to rate it here. Medium, creamy, egg-white head, hazy amber colour. Subdued fruitiness, unripe peach, sourish gooseberry, bit grainy malt phase, dryish and lightly sourish, fairly strong carbo, light caramel touch, spicy hop bitterness in the finish. Decent, nothing more, bit boring, perhaps that is why I overlooked it in my notes...

75 cl. bottle @ home from Willems. BBF 22/11/2013. Bright hazy amber / orange with a wonderfully very stable, very creamy white head. Mellow citrus, grapefruit in the nose, lightly sweet with some peach, nicely hoppy, small floral hint. Sweet yeast, light spices and some mellow sweetness, malt, light citrus, hint soap, fruity, passion fruit, peaches, light floral and grass touches, light candy sugar, noticeable hops but not much bitterness. Quite yeasty but easy to drink with a touch higher carb. No particularly pronounced character, neutral but highly enjoyable and easy to drink. Far better than expected. Alcohol is not noticeable.

Bottle courtesy of Deanso. Poured a clear medium amber with a big frothy white head. The aroma is weak malty with a little yeast. The flavour is medium bitter, zesty, with some citrus notes and a little sweet bitterness in the aftertaste. Ok to drink, but far from being a classic.
