Agent Provocateur is a Belgian style golden ale brewed with floral and citrus aromatic American hops. The Amarillo and Cascade hops combined with a small amount of light crystal malt give an orange marmalade character that melds with the Belgian yeast spiciness to give a complex, aromatic beer.

33 cl bottle @ home, BBE 06.11.2014
Aroma is quite light with some apricot and yeasty notes. Flavour has apricot, some orange and spices. Palate is too high on CO2. A spicy Belgian Ale.

330ml bottle from beer-city.be

Pours orange with a small foamy head. Aroma of musty fruits, hints of spices, yeast and malts. Taste is stingy, floral and yeasty with notes of spices and malts. Finish is smooth, crisp and slightly hoppy with some floral and fruity notes. Quite hoppy Belgian ale.

Pours gold into a snifter. White head with good retention recedes to hug rim. Honey and caramel aromas. Sweet yeast and tropical fruit front to back. Dry, lasting pepper finish.

Dobre i ciekawe piwo. Dry hopping oraz goryczkowe i aromatyczne chmiele pachną ładnie. Wszystko zgrane elegandzko, piana ładna i spora, sporo mazi w butelce i ładnie powolutku rozprowadza się w tulipanie. Piwo jest na finiszu bardzo drożdzowe i jakby nieco nut zbożowych z belgijskiego tripla. Nazwa prowokacyjna:) i polecam skosztować je.

Draught at La Fine Mousse, Paris. Lighly hazy golden, small head. Sugary nose with gooseberry and mango. Very sweet with clean mouthfeel and medium body. Clean with the sort of generic, half lifeless de Proef mouthfeel. A thin layer of tropical fruits. Mid bitter finish.

bottle from Saveur-Biere. Hazy golden colour, small but persistant white head. Lovely hop aroma. Medium-bodied, elegant malt flavours provide a good base for the huge amount of aromatic hops that add a resiny-fruity character.
