Bottle at home. Poured in too much I guess. That last bit really looked gross. Oh my God it tastes horrible too. Undrinkable imo. Odd herbal, spicy aroma and flavor. I can't drink this. Really not my kind of beer.

Hazy blond colour, white foam. Nose of banana, lots of banana, spices, herbs. Rather sweet, light bitter. Not bad.

Blonde quencher from this Circusbrouwerij, executed at Gaverhopke. Thanks to tderoeck for sharing. Snow white, thick and foamy, large-bubbled yet frothy head on a hazy peach blonde beer with pale ochre-ish tinge. Aroma of honey, fried apple, coriander seed and other spices (yarrow!), sugared bread, ripe pear, bitter green plants, some DMS (cooked broccoli), 'lycheejenever', vague hint at cumin seed perhaps. Crisp, fruity onset, apple, pineapple and banana notes, very fizzy carbonation, sweetish bready maltiness, soft and yeasty-powdery near the end, the powderiness seemingly accentuated by a 'pollen'-like effect of what I strongly suspect is yarrow, but there is a clear soapy note from coriander seed as well; softly bittering, spicy finish, dry and quite herbal. Ordinary Belgian blonde with a spicy twist, yarrow remains my best guess. Drinkable, but not entirely without flaws; I am just glad that they didn't overdo it with the spice rack this time.

11/I/20 - 33cl bottle from… I forgot, shared @ home, BB: n/a, bottled: VII/2019 (2020-21)

Clear orange beer, big aery to creamy off-white head, stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: lots of CO2, cheesy, herbal, rotting flowers, DMS, very unpleasant, weird, some lychee, weird spices and herbs, very weird beer this one… MF: very lively carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sourish, very herbal, spicy, some fruity notes, yellow stone fruit and overripe pears, bit oxidized, very floral, soapy bitterness. Aftertaste: little oxidized, very spicy, weird, rather unpleasant. Not a big fan.

22/08/2019 @home - 33cl bottle from Willems & Zoon, Grobbendonk. Clear golden, medium pearly white head. Nose is banana, bit herbs, yeast. Taste is lots of banana, bit banana peel, bit lavender, spicy ending, too much spice.

Avec ses petites fleurs sur l'étiquette, je me réjouissais d'avoir une bière fleurie, rafraîchissante et légère…La brasserie De Circus a donc une conception bien particulière du printemps et c'est une bière bourrée d'épices, grossière et inintéressante qui nous est proposé. En verre le blond doré limpide avec une mousse clairsemée est plutôt appréciable. Le nez est lourd en épice avec coriandre et cardamome trop présentes. Des arômes mentholés ne s'intégrant pas convenablement et de biscuit complètent la palette. En bouche, cela va de même, grossier, trop sucré, sans complexité. Heureusement une légère amertume nous laisse-t-elle un petit répit en seconde bouche avant que les épices reprennent leur place en troisième bouche. L'alcool à 6,8 est honnête tout comme la corpulence et la longueur. Cela ne suffit pas à sauver cette bière. A éviter.
