Named for our grandfather, who was lovingly called "The Master". Its unforgettable character mirrors that of the legendary urban figure of "The Master". It's a fresh, fruity IPA that is perhaps not as bitter and makes it pleasing to drink. Merkur, Nelson and Citra hops.

BOTTLE 33 CL. Hazy amber, big ivory head. Strong tropical fruit aroma (mango, sweet citrus etc.), a bit of fruity tartness and just a hint of pine. The taste, in comparison, feels much drier, with low sweetness and slight fruitiness and nice clean dry bitter finish. No much of what we call βBelgianβ in it. Very good.

Hazy, amber colored, medium to strong white head. Aroma is of tropical fruits and citrus, bit floral and a caramalty background. Taste is medium sweet caramalt, tropical fruits, bit biscuit, grapefuit, some floral hops, medium aroma and bitterness, touch of alcohol, dry. Medium+ bodied and moderate carbonation. Nice break between the usual Belgian styles :)

0.33 l bottle from Firma Bier, best before 5/3/2017. Clear, golden orange with a huge, creamy, stable, tan to white head. Fruity-resiny aroma of mango, passion fruit, orange, pine and some honey. Sweetish, fruity-resiny taste of mango, passion fruit, orange, honey and pine, followed by a short, medium bitter finish. Medium body, creamy and effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very fruity, nicely balanced with enough sweet malts on the one hand and bitter hops on the other. Very creamy for an IPA as well, very good!

Bottle, 7.0%. Good fruity hop aroma, mango and a little catβs urine. Almost clear copper colour. Big stable creamy white head. The flavour has the same notes as the aroma as well as a creamy touch, a little sweetness, and a little funk. Very good.
