Wheat beer in the Eaux Vives series from the province of Namur in French-speaking Belgium. Off-white, moussy, cobweb-lacing, slowly breaking and irregularly shaped head on a hazy apricot blonde beer, cloudy and more beige with sediment. Aroma of crushed green gooseberries, oxidized green apple slices, sorrel leaf, dough, old crumbling lemon cookies, freshly cut green bell pepper, cucumber even, lemonbalm. Softly sourish onset with sweetish core, hints of Granny Smith apple, Conference pear, green banana and a touch of gooseberry or kiwi, fizzily carbonated with smooth, supple body; old-bready malts with sourdoughy edge from the wheat - wheat tartness is very much played out here; bit herbal, floral, gently bittering hoppiness in the end, lemonbalm, sweetclover, pumpkin flowers, chamomile - as well as lingering bready yeastiness, which hinders the refreshing character somewhat. A bit unbalanced, but drinkable.

Hazy blond body. Creamy off-white head. Aroma of fresh hops - bit cheesy. Moderately bitter flavour, very hoppy. Lovely!
