24 February 2019. Wieze Bierfestival - cheers to Meeki, Ama Deke & the lovely Anke! Probably intended as the 'Tripel' version to the regular VIBB. Clear ochre with a lasting, thin, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of coriander, soap, wheat, grain, white bread, banana peel, apple. Taste is medium fruity sweet, notes of banana (but not overly estery) & apple, some pear, apricot, supported by 'white' bready malt; turning light spicy bitter with apparent coriander, rendering it quite soapy, some bitter orange peel (curaçao), equally light wheaty sour. Dryish, wheaty finish, more coriander, bread, some warming jenever alcohol. Medium body, slick texture, lively carbonation. Well, all the components for a cliché Belgian blond are there, congratulations.
