A light yet fullbodied beer, a healthy thirst quencher with a delicious hop flavour. A traditional beer with high fermentation level, produced in small quantities, using only natural ingredients: hops, yeast, water and malt.

Bouteille 33cl, dorée léger trouble, col blanc fin. Arôme fruité tirant sur le houblonné suivi d’un léger côté herbacé. Palais reste léger, note de levure, restant très belge dans son profil général. Légère pointe sucrée en fin de bouche, belle péttillance, malt typique pâle carapils, fini sec et amer.

33cl bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Hazy yellow color, small white head. Smell malts, a bit cellar or dusty attick, hint of bitter. Taste malts, slight bitterness, slightly fruity, slightly hops. Medium carbo, medium body. Better than expected.

A cloudy, light yellow beer with a big, dense and blond head. Aroma is light malty, honey, some flowers and sweet candys; quite unique aroma. Taste is fruitfull, light maltyness, some honey. Medium- bodied, lots of carbonation, fresh to drink. Unique beer with enough of elements, but still quite boring with too much of lager like nuancees as light malts and honey.

Note: I was a bit afraid when I saw the bottle was already two years old, being a blond 5% beer. But apparently it held up pretty well, maybe even got better?
Clear blond beer, thick creamy off-white head, stable, little adhesive. Aroma: flowers, bit sugary, sweet grains. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, quite some citrus fruits, honey, ripe fruits, some metallic touch. Aftertaste: some green bananas, still a bit metallic, little stale, but that'll be the age.

Bottle. It pours an unclear, golden colored body with some microfloaties and a finger thick off-white head. It’s fruity and grassy on the nose, with some yeast and a cheesy touch. The flavor is sweet and fruity, almost sugary sweet, and with a faint touch of herbs. Low on bitterness I think. Medium body, and a very metallic finish. A beer that I can’t really decide if I like or not, it’s nice in many ways, but also a bit unclean. 110430
