Out of the blue, you’ve got a new favorite brew that’s truly mouth-watering. You’ll sense the distinct aroma a mile away and get a fresh burst of flavor from the tangy orange bite and a touch of coriander.

Making waves. Fending off fins in South African waters, ships move port to port, picking up citrus and spice to brew a hazy, lazy refreshing drink up north. Fragrant and fruity. Keep your wits about you!

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Thuis uit een flesje. Troebel gouden kleur, wit schuim. Fris aroma, niet fruitig. Smaak goed, fris met ook een zoete hint. Van de bloedsinaasappel?

Bottle, 6.0%. Mild fruity and dusty aroma. Hazy golden colour. Good stable chalk white head. The flavour has a good clove note with some fresh baking yeast. Low to medium bitterness.

21/VI/24 - 33cl can @ Kelderschatten Gentse Biervereniging at Baracuna (Gent), BB: 2/I/25, 23359C1 (2024-409) Thanks to JOL for sharing the can!

Clear orange beer, small creamy off-white to yellowish head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very oxidized, orange peel, very floral, a bit soapy impression, more oxidation. MF: soft to no carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter, oxidized, very malty, a little bitter. Aftertaste: a bit sweet, malty, grains, cardboard, flat, boring, no blood orange and no kiwiberries to be tasted and way too oxidized. This, 6 months before the best by date, that’s rather unacceptable.

Bottled 330ml (Maxima XXX TLN) Golden colour, small steady white head and some lace. Blood orange and honey in the nose. LIght-bodied. Honeyish and a bit spicey Belgian yeasty flavours, less citrus in the taste. Kind of Leffe-like. Okish.

33cl Fles, dank Suus! Goudgele kleur, witte kraag. Medium zoet, licht kruidig, esters, ruikt als een typisch Belgisch Blondje, hint van de beloofde gebruikte vruchten, redelijk bitter. Lichte body. Degelijk.

Small off-white head over hazy orange-golden beer. Hint of spices, and then a waft of coffee, surprisingly. Again green leaves, holly. Always something roasted - strange seen the colour. Bitterish flavour, toast to mild roast, bit fiery MF. There is a spicy flavour, but I cannot relate it to either fruit used. Some dull bitterness, raw hops. Feels very carbonated. Quite slick, but medium bodied at best. Unremarkable. The Kraken must have sunk the oranges cargo.
