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.

Bottle from a Carrefour in Ninove. Pours hazy golden with a big, foamy, white head; little lacing. The aroma contains lemon zest, apricot, breadcrumb, pepper, yeast, soap, flowers, coriander, honey. It tastes medium bready sweet, malty, hint of ripe fruit, and light to medium spicy bitter, yeasty & grassy with a very light lemony & wheaty sour back. Dry, grassy hoppy finish, spicy & wheaty in the back. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Perhaps thanks to the brewery, quite 'different' from other Belgian Ales. Balanced.

33cl bottle from a Night Shop in Brugge and drank in my hotel bedroom when I didn’t really need any more beer! Poured a clear golden colour, very lager/pilsner like: neat white crown on top. Slight citrus bite to the brew with a yeasty feel to the taste also: OK.
