A top-notch Belgian ale brewed with 3 Belgian hops and 3 grains. This offers this high fermented ale a complex taste palette with touches of the noble hops, a light fruity aroma and a beautiful creamy head. The refermentation in the bottle gives this blond beer a smooth taste.

Aroma of citrus, herbs and grassy hops. Flavour is light citrus, with a dry and bitter finish. Nice and refreshing, fine use of hops.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Slightly hazy golden colored brew with an dry bitter taste ans hints of spices and slightly lemony. Likes an Duvel but with an lower alcohol, and obvious an football/soccer themed beer label.

Bottled. Gusher warning. Hazy yellowish orange colour with a mediumsized white foamy head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is fruity, some spiciness, mild bananas and some mild alcohol like sweetness. Flavou ris fruity, citrusy, some bitterness with mild yeast and some alcohol kind of sweetness. 5.5 % ABV feels low, maybe it's fermented a bit more, since it gushed too...

EXPLODING metal cork, managed to get all beer in the glass though. A bit scared to open others... all put as out of production in ratebeer, but plenty available in place I took them. BBD all fine. Smell-weak Belgian tones and hops. Foam- Head is huge, white, and goes away quite fast initially. Thin, large in mouth, malt, caramel, Belgian yeast, weka hops. Sticks. Appearance- generic yellow bottle cap, simple label with some devil horny guy. Bit cloudy yellow color, weak carbonation. From - pint Price - 2.99 for 0.33l Taste- malt, Belgian yeast, citrus, faint caramel, faint citrus, some hops and bitter tones. Bit of alcohol tones, even with this low alco content. Apart from exploding bottle cap, nothing much to look forward to. Faint sour character accompanying in the aftertaste.

*rating overgezet* Het heeft een helder goudgele kleur met een dun wit schuim. Het aroma is moutig en gistachtig. De smaak is moutig en wat citrus achtig.

Bottle. Blonde. Soft citrus aroma. Tart citrus flavor with floral notes. Just a little bit sweet. Thinnish. Easy and pleasant drinker.

Uit een flesje op Texel. Mooie donkergeel, bijna oranje kleur, trobel. Goed wit schuim. Smaak is ook uitstekend, doet mij (maar dat zal door de locatie van opdrinken komen) denken aan een Skuumkoppe. Heerlijk bier!
