330ml bottle from Vanuxeem. Pours clear gold, rocky white head. Aroma of herbal citrus, lime. Fair carbonation. Taste is bright, with spicy yeast, nice herbal citrus hop character boosted by a bold sweetness. Flavoursome, sweet golden ale, though maybe a bit too sweet.

Bottled, edition 2017. Clear golden color, big soapy head. Aroma of spicy yeast, bit grassy hop and slight green apple. Soft to medium bitterness in taste, grassy and spicy. Finish is fairly bitter for the style. Bit thin body though. Not impressive, in the line of most of the recent Corsendonks. --- Beer merged from original tick of Grand Hops Edition 2017 on 11 Dec 2017 at 22:01 - Score: 5. Original review text: Grassig, kruidig. Beetje dun

Bottle. Almost clear effervescent gold. Incredible huge white head. Spicy aroma combining yeast & hops. Background malts. Similar taste. Medium bitterness. The hops are somewhat metallic. OK

Flaska från belgiuminabox. Varmt gyllengul, klar med högt vitt skum. Ganska och fruktig arom och smak med söta äpple och honung som en lättare trippel men med markant mer gräsig och lite kådig bitterhumle typ XX-bitter. Smakerna gifter sig bra och även den belgiska jästkaraktären får mycket utrymme. Mycket gott.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours classic transparent gold with a super fluffy, abundant and very persistent white foam. Aroma is resinous, herbaceous, floral. Body is average with average carbonation. Taste is a mix of intense sweet and good bitterness. Finish is relatively long and with some bitterness.

Kwestie van schoenmaker hou je bij je leest. Prima IPA'tje maar van Corsendonck verwacht je gewoon meer body; meer attack.
