Tap @ Bierfestival Albergen. Golden color. Soft citrus and cellar notes in the aroma. Malty floral, soft milky flavor. Hint of citrus. Friendly.

(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, golden colour with a blond and short foamy head. Slightly dusty, bready and slightly juicy malty aroma with a whiff of fruity hops in the background. Mildly sweet and delicately bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a tame carbonation. Slightly bready malty base with notes of coffee underneath; fruity hops tune in towards the dry and slightly oxidised finish. Would not order a second one. 02.V.18

On tap @ Craft, Essen. Grainy with sweetish hints. Not too deep, not too floral. Grainy and slightly sticky in the end.

Bottle @ TapZuid bierfestival 1 July 2017. Brewed @ Inbier. Cloudy golden color. Dense off white head. Aroma’s: fruity, herbal, light sweet. Retronasal it’s fruity, herbal, a bit perfumey (from the berries?). Flavor is sweetish, fruity, a bit strange. Light bodied. Finishes slightly dry, with a bit of a typical bitterness.

Bottle @ home. Hazy golden color, small white to off-white head. Smell and taste malts, lightly hops, floral, a hint of citrus. Don’t get any caffeine. Lightly citrus bitter. Average to decent body and carbonation. Meh.

Bottle sample at NHBF’17. Hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of malts, light floral. Flavour is light malty, floral, light fruity. Not an APA in any way (not really hoppy enough), caffeine is lost on me as well.
