Tap at a place in Grande Place, Brussels. It pours slightly hazy golden - blonde with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweetish, bready, rich tea biscuit, sponge cake, melon, pear, apple and a touch of banana. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, hearty malts, white bread, digestive biscuit, sponge cake, grass, damp herbal accents, cereal, coriander seeds and muted alcohol presence with a bready finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. A decent enough blonde ale. Drinks easy.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Not an IPA ofcourse, but rather a hoppy Belgian Ale similar to Duvel Tripel Hop. Grassy and citrussy aroma with floral and yeasty notes, lemon, light malt. Moderate bitter with a little dryness. Not bad.

14/II/24 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ my parents’ place, BB: 6/II/24, lot A22221839 (2024-102)
Clear pale gold blond beer, big creamy white irregular head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: little fruity, some ripe banana, malty, yeasty touch. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of banana, gentle bitterness, a bit malty, pretty hoppy, some citrus. Aftertaste: more banana, malty, a little bitter, slightly fruity, meh. Underwhelming but not as bad as I had feared.
