Bouteille 33cl, BB 09/2018. Dorée/orange sur léger voile, col crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme au nez fruité avec pas mal de notes tropicales mais modérées par l’ajout plus noble. Retrouve des effluves de grains d’épeautre avec un léger citron vert en rétro-nasal. Palais est centré sur un grains plaisant avec un caractère plus anglais qui garde cependant une petite touche pâle et caramélisé renforcé au gout par l’opposition des houblons. Fruité bien développé entre citornné, qcq agrumes et un noble plus EKG. Le profil des malts restent assez dominant apportant tout de même une petite sécheresse de find e bouche tout en conférant assez d’espace aux houblons.

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle at RBBSG 2016 in Evergem. Clear, golden yellow with a fluffy, white head. Sweetish-fruity, slightly herbal-spicy aroma of lemongrass, honey and some ginger. Slightly bitter, grassy-fruity and a bit herbal-spicy taste of lemongrass, ginger, pineapple and honey, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, quite herbal-grassy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Nice!

Sampled @ Ratebeer Belgian Summer Gathering 2016. A bit hazy yellow to golden color, small white head. Smell and taste malts, lightly some herbs or spices, at least that’s what I get but I presume it’s because of the buckwheat. Some bitterness in the finish as well. Decent.

Thank you for sharing! Sampled draft @ Gents Bierfestival 2016. Hazy orange, little white head. Nose is dirty dog, moldy cereal, spoiled grain,… taste is weird milky, stale cereal, moldy, grain, zest, spoiled milk, grain base is all nasty cereal, paper to me, huge paper taste,… Milky body, milky & paper, spoiled cereal. I am sorry, I couldn’t get into this one, grain base really seems to put me off here.
