bottle from beer planet. gusher. cloudy orange, smooth white to offwhite head. very fruity aroma, ripe fruity mixed with citrussy notes.wheaty and yeasty notes. flavor is quite yeasty, a little spicy, dough, fruity notes like apple, alc. burns in the aftertaste - a raw and unbalanced beer. It is past its best before date, and the hops seem to have become dusty. However, i don’t think it would’ve been much better fresh. Very belgian.

9/III/2012 on tap @ De Heeren van Liedekercke (Denderleeuw) - BB: n/a (2012-223)

Mainly clear light blond beer, huge white head, somewhat adhesive. Aroma: fruity, yeast, some vegetables, hay, grassy. On swivelling the beer around a weird chemical rubbery or plastic smell comes out. MF: soft to no carbon, light body. Taste: faint fruits, some citrus, grains, sugary, in all pretty watery. Aftertaste: more grains, grassy, watery too. Lacks some punch.
