Bottle at home. Has a slightly hazy straw-yellow colour with a big bumpy off-white head. Has a nice citrusy aroma along with pepper, Belgian yeast, straw and soap. Nice! Lots of Belgian yeast, straw, pale malt and spices. Has a slick and rich mouth feel, and a light bitterness. Has a nice aroma and a decent flavour. Brings me back to Belgium

Nice creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly fruity, light malts, citrus, hay, yeast, banana, bubblegum. Taste is light malts, hay, citrus, yeast, dough, citrus peel, dried fruits, hints of cardboard. Medium bitterness. Not bad at all.

330ml bottle from bestillingsutvalget at Vinmonopolet. Rocky, white head leaving spotty lacing behind. Cloudy, pale golden body. Spiced fruity aroma, mid-dry. Candy sweet taste balanced by a citrus touch and with yeasty fruitiness towards the ending. Dry, bittersweet endnotes. Soft carbonated. Has got its moments (Tromsø 02.06.2013).

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Hogerdijk, Culemborg. Hazy golden with a big lacing white head. Fruity aroma. Taste is bittersweet and a bit thin with lots of yeast. Somewhat dissapointing.

Draft at Taps Beer Bar, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a cloudy amber with a thick white frothy head and lots of broken lace. The aroma is rich, yeasty and fruity. The flavour is medium bitter with citrus notes and loads of Belgian yeast. There is no doubting its heritage, which I have to say is becoming a little tiring.
