Ludicrous 25 ml bottle. Oh, so Chinese looking, but it's a Belgian beer. Why'd Belgium produce this? No idea. Anyway, let's get to the tasting: A slightly hazy pale golden (almost yellow) pour with a rocky, albeit short-lived, off-white head. Aroma is ginger, cardamom, coriander (adjuncts? I won't answer this one.) Dry, pungent, never bitter, but bone-dry it is. Adjuncts are obvious in the aftertaste, particularly ginger (pink gari it is.) Quite artificial, but not bad per se. An acquired taste, I'd say. Yeah, ludicrous.
