Many thanks to beerhunter111 for this bottle! Easy to drink but sweetish grainy. The body has lots of sweetish grain, not too much bitterness, round and easy to drink without too many depth.

75cl bottle all to myself, present from my Belgian father-in-law. Pours gold with medium fluffy white head. Taste is fairly basic but a pleasant table beer with a nice strength.

Golden colour with a white head. Malty and light fruity aroma. Thinner texture than expected but also a bit more hoppy than expected. Light malty and hoppy flavour.

Cork and caged 0.75 litre bottle: best before 16 Sept 2012, poured into three pilsner glasses on 10 March 2012. Yellowy orange body of well carbonated beer: on top sat large heads of white bubbles which left some good lacing as the beer levels dropped. Smells of citrus hops, metal mops and fresh yeast. Tastes of fizzy citrus hops, rusting metal mops and old yeast. The alcohol is well hidden, but overall this isn’t a well balanced brew in my eyes: different certainly, but not really interesting or compelling enough to have another bottle.
