Bottle, 330 ml at de Molen. Almost clear golden, some hoppiness, dry, touch of bitterness. Light to medium bodied.

Small just off-white head over veiled darker golden beer, lively carbonated. Delightful muscatgrape aroma, spring herbs, lunaria, lupulin, exotic fruit. Bitterish, fruity and slightly acidic flavour, the latter enhanced by the very lively carbonation. Green herbs, exotic fruit, citruspeel, lunaria, white candi sugar. Very slick, very carbonated, almost refreshing, easy drinking. Actually a very pleasing beer. For once, the 'bio' moniker isn't there just to spoil the fun.

33cl bottle from Bio-Planet Jambes Supermarket in Namur. F: big, white, good retention. C: pale gold, light hazy. A: lemon, banana, orange, pineapple, bit honey, chamomile, pear, bit caramel. T: medium malty base, orange, banana, pear, bit spicy, hay, pineapple, bready, decent bitterness, medium carbonation, more like saison but quite nice balanced, enjoyed.

Hazy, golden color and a nice white head. Sweet malty, grassy, tropical flavors. Decent bitter, spicy yeasty and bitterfruity finish.

New organic version of Belgoo's Belgian IPA called 'Bloemekei', steinie bottle from the Delhaize supermarket in Lokeren. Huge, foamy, rocky, very thickly plaster-lacing, egg-white, very dense and stable, hops-enhanced head, lightly hazed straw blonde robe with golden glow and disparate sparkling. Aroma of radish peel, dried lemon pith, dry bread crust, old crackers, green pear (peel), unripe banana, pink peppercorns, crushed green tree leaves in spring, freshly cut grass, raw parsnip, chamomile, hints of pumice, parsley, hard white soap and dry earth. Dryish but still fruity onset, hinting at unripe banana, hard green Conference pear and some green apple, fizzily carbonated with slick, rounded mouthfeel, light sourish undertone; cereally pale maltiness with pleasant white-bready core, vague cracker-like side note, soon bittered by a grassy, spicy, eventually quite leafy hop bitterness, adding retronasal aromas of dried chamomile, young birch leaves and dark green wood bluegrass but even a slight hint at shy citrusiness. Bready yeastiness and pale malt sweetishness continue too, along with these yellow-green fruity aspects and a dash of spicy phenols. Very typical Belgian IPA, like the regular Bloemekei, or otherwise put: a Belgian blonde hopped above the average level. Showing some signs of more extravert hoppiness, albeit in a very restrained degree, only accentuates how passionately it wants to be an IPA. Not bad, but think "Belgian blonde" when buying this rather than "IPA"...
