Draught @ Moeder Lambic, Brussels. Smooth, fruity and slightly crisp with some floral hops, citrus and grapefruit. Okay.

33cl can, BB 16/12/2021, batch# P318-319, partagée avec Willy.
Dorée, sur un léger voile pâle, col blanc épais.
Arôme est 'dank', effet houblonné ressort à merveille avec un léger rétro-nasal de la levure. Le tout sur de belles effluves fruitées agrumes - tropical, raisin blanc subtil. Cela fonctionne super bien avec le côté lager qui donne un bouquet plus classique mais en même temps apporte un côté frais par rapport à toutes ces neipa.
Palais est léger frais, de suite marqué par un bon apport de la levure lager, le tout est magnifié par les houblons typiquement sur cet effet 'new world' zélandais laissant de belles notes de fruité sur les agrumes, raisin blanc, tropical.

29/IX/21 - 33cl can from the brewery, shared @ home, BB: 16/XII/21 (2021-1132)
Clear gold blond beer, huge fizzy creamy white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: nice, fruity, malty touch, citrus, some cooked cabbage, little chemical, some citrus, glue, bit resinous, weird… MF: lively carbon, medium to light body. Taste: bit malty in the start, slightly sweet, some citrus, good bitterness, chemical touch, grassy, very bitter, dry, some tropical fruits. Aftertaste: very bitter, chemical, very dry finish, medicinal, a bit too bitter if you ask me…
Hops are nutty
Nice! Very hoppy balanced lager... Like it!

Pours unclear blonde, medium large to large white head. Scent is medium full, creamy, soft and gentle hoparoma (stonefruit), some malty backbone (milder) and a hint of yeast. Taste is more hopforward. Stonefruit all the way, not as creamy as expected. medium high carbo. Fine, medium intense bitterness. Maltyness is mild (perhaps a tad too mild) . Lageryeast is a bit lost (in aroma) due to the other factors being more intense.
