First-class aromatic hops deliver an extremely delicious hoppy abbey beer. Grimbergen Hop Character has a typical refined bitterness and therefore also a hoppy character.

Thanks to Benzai! 330 ml. bottle sampled in que for Borefts 2017. Day 1. Hazy citrus golden, soapy white head. Nose is hugely vegetable, cooked vegetable & vegetable cooking oil. Taste is corn, vegetable, yeast, bitter lingering cooked vegetable finish. Body is vegetable oil. Awful, what is this abomination why does it tastes like a terrible vegetable pale lager?

Bottle shared in Borefts '17 queue. Clear golden color, medium to full sized white head. Nice hoppy aroma initially, but weird somewhat floral sweetness after that. Flavor is floral sweet with hop bitter notes coming through. Decent body, medium carbonation. Meh.

Bottle in Reimes. Fruity neutral nose. The beer starts fruity with a sweetish beginning. Fruity, fresh and smooth. Mild with grainy hints. Not bad.
