Bottle, 6.2%. Slow gusher. Fruity, yeasty, spicy aroma. Hazy yellow colour, sparkling with floaties. Big stable white head. High carbonation. The flavour is yeasty, slightly sweet. Some white bread notes. Also moldy and citric, not badly so, though. The alcohol is nice and present even though the ABV is not that high.

On tap at ZBF 08. Gold/green with lasting beige head. It’s a pretty good blond beer, some decent hop, some creaminess in mouth. Decent blond with a bit of perfume.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, not much head. Aroma is spicy, bready, fruity, diacetylic toffeeish and some slight sweetness. Flavour is spices, caramel and grass along with some sour fruityness. Aftertaste keeps the spicyness and fruityness.

Bottle: Poured a clear golden color ale with some good retention and some nice lacing feature. Aroma consists of spicy yeast with some nice yeast ester also noticeable. Taste consists of some spices, some fruity ester and a nice dry Saaz hoppy finish. Body is about average with some good carbonation. I really enjoyed the hoppy finish and the refreshing aspect of this beer.

Bottled. Pours hazy and golden, with a good deal of carbonation, floaties and a nice off-white head. Complex aroma with apples, citrus, yeast-notes and hints of orange and raspberry. The flavor is yeasty and fruity, with hops, sweetness and some sour notes. Full body and a finish with a nice bitterness. The bottle was dated best before 20061031, and the lagering sure didn’t hurt it. (061111)
