Cloudy yellow body and modest foam. Okay mandarin orange aroma, slight tangerine. Taste is mellow grain, hop sweetness and a bit of honeydew melon. Ends too wet. In the English language we have a word for a beer like this, and it is meh.

Muddy light tan, not a lot of head. Fresh, lemony, orangey galaxy aroma. Very orangey taste, sweet up front, bitterness late...a bit too much muddy yeast character but otherwise really nice stuff.

Draught at the brewery; 6.5% ABV
Muddy deep blond color with compact head. The hop aroma is somehow mild, but nice: citrus fruits, grapefruit, light cedar and bergamot. The mouthfeel is rather dry, but the body strength is correct; some wheat flavor and relative spiciness, very strong bitterness, with enough fruity contribution (grapefruit and cedar mainly, some lemon peel), but also some harsh resins, and the final is a bit too vegetable, hard on the bitterness.
Good but unpolished; waiting for a cleaner version…

On tap at Brassneck Brewery, pours a cloudy opaque dirty yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, some spicy notes, and some Belgian yeast. Flavour is very spicy, with loads of Belgian ale spices and dry piney hops. Quite a harsh astringency on the finish, with lots of lingering spiciness. Very good stuff.
