Licht troebel geel bier met veel schuim wat helaas snel inzakt. Smaak is bitter hoppig en frizuur fruitig, ananas en zwarte thee. Verrassend goed.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy opaque orangey golden with a lacing, white head. Aroma is yeasty, phenollic, fruity and a little perfumy. Thin and watery body, again your typical Belgian yeast, phenols and a shitload of bittering hops. Chalky. Totally lacking pleasant aromatic hop characters. 3.71 in average, WTF is wrong with you people? Belgian IPA’s is an abomination in itself, and this is just a watered down, unrefined version of exactly that. Don’t jump on the hype train. 230516

Spritziger, zu stark karbonisierter Antrunk. Laff, dafür aber deutlich bitter. Okay. 9/7/7/7//8

Golden color with small white head. Aroma is slightly hoppy, also a bready malt base. Taste is bready, grainy, slightly bitter. Overcarbonated. Not excellent.

Bottle from Geers. Very hazy beige/blond colour. Nose of grapefruit and citrus. Very hoppy finish. Very well made and only 2.7%. Finish is harsh bitter. Maybe a bit too (Belgian) yeasty.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 12.2016. Dorée-orangée sur léger trouble, col épais blanc assez conséquent, sur effervescent. Arôme offre un nez citronné/agrumes, qcq impression C hop de Cascade avec un Cluster dual-porpose bien choisit. Résiduel et rétro-nasal semble centré sur une levure belge qui prend un peu le dessus, finement fleuri. Palais est léger, malté cara Munich, se cet centré sur les grains. Le houblon rattrape le tout avec un profil fruité d’agrumes. Le seigle perce en fin de bouche ajoutant à cette sensation de grains frais concassés et ’épicé. Léger tropical avec une note pamplemousse. Retrouve un Galena à sa place qui donne un côté terreux. Au final, même remarque que pour le Dulce Leche, il me semble que la levure belge ne soit pas adaptée à ce profil plus américain, on retrouve cette dernière comme trop présente à défaut de mettre plus ne avaleur les houblons.

Bottle shared at bab, at home (thnx Klaas! ) and at Gollem ( Antwerp ) . Pours unclear yellow, small white head. Smell is hoppy, full, taste is bitter, hoppy, mildly yeasty. Some grains in the back. Very bitter, very hop-forward, yet still balanced. Nice !
