5/VI/17 - sample from 37.5cl bottle @ LIBF 2017 (Leuven) - BB: n/a (2017-754) Thanks to the Belgian RB crew for sharing today's beers!
Little cloudy beige beer, no head. Aroma: very fruity, peaches, pineapple, shower gel, pretty acidic and infected. MF: very lively carbon, medium body. Taste: very sourish, lemony, acidic, fruity, floral, soapy, ginger. Aftertaste: citrus, very fruity, orange peel, lemon juice, acidic, some spicy bitterness, decent one! I feared much worse. :p

Bottle at Culmination Fest 16: Poured a hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma was strong citrus and ginger. Wow very ginger and light citrus, powerful on the palate and its very harsh.

Growler, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out strong basil - not much else. Flavour is along the same lines, with loads of basil - a little citric finish. Nothing incredible but pretty decent.
