Bottle at home. Clear (initially) golden color, huge sized, a bit foamy, and bubbly white head that lasts for quite a long time. Aroma and flavor are malts, lightly citrus, hayish, distant yeasty notes, moderately hayish hop bitter. Quite well balanced I must say. Decent body for a light ABV beer like this and suitable average to decent carbonation. Way better than expected. Well brewed.

From Good Times Oakland, bottom of the can shows 12 in white?

Pours a hazy yellow orange, big fluffy head of foam, excellent retention and lacing.

Smell is grainy, certainly hoppy, yeasty, orange zest, hint of light tartness.

Taste is lemon and orange citrus, yeasty, very very light suggestion of tartness; that comes and goes. Little bit of bandaid like flavour that I don't dig.

Light bodied, I don't reckon that I would seek this out.

Romans are malt, spice, Belgian yeast, a bit of skunk. Flavors are similar to great balance between bitter, sweet and just right carbonation. Very drinkable but nothing special.

330ml bottle bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Pours a noisy, large white head slowly diminishing over a hazy pale golden body, spotty lacing. Inviting aromas of grassy hops with a citric scent. Fresh yeasty fruitiness to the taste character joined by citrus and cereal malts. Bitter fruity ending. Medium bodied. Nice. (Tromsø, 19.11.2024).

Bottle @ home. Unclear pale golden body under a big, foamy white head. Mild and delicate aroma with Belgium yeast and noble hops. Taste is pale malt, wheat, spicy Belgium yeast and noble hops. Medium body with same aftertaste. Not a very bold beer, more like something between a blonde and wit but classic spicy Glazen Toren signature is definitely reconcilable. Well made and really tasty for a beer within this style.
