Light blonde with 4.5% alc., generously hopped with the finest aromatic hops, giving it a very refreshing character and a scent reminiscent of citrus.

0,33 l bottle. Pours hazy straw yellow with huge lasting frothy snow white head. Aroma is quite light, straw, yeast, flower hop notes. Flavor however is full of citrus, some spices and yeast. Taste is light to medium sweet and medium bitter, some light sourness is present. Body is light, texture thin and carbonation quite lively. Finish is long, pleasant herbal bitterness lasts for a while. I was rather disappointed by lack of aroma in general, but bottle was rather old, since July 2017.

Bottle at Bier Circus, Brussels. Pours cloudy yellow. Aroma is herbs, phenols, soft perfume and flowers. Body is light and soft, refreshing and simple, yet still pleasantly phenolic and not lacking taste. Almost watery, yet hoppy bitterness. Quite good.

Bottle at the neighbor’s, straight from bottle. Grassy weedy hops, citrus. Moderate sweet, moderate nettle and earthy bitter.

Als een sprankelend beekje in de bergen. Hoppig en bitter. Koel en fris van de tap.
