330ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, orange golden colour with huge, fluffy, moderately to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Rather cautious, minimally biscuity, pale malty and slightly yeasty fruity, minimally floral hoppy aroma, hints of apricot and mirabelle. Taste is minimally biscuity, pale malty, moderately bitter, minimally floral hoppy and slightly yeasty fruity, hints of apricot and mirabelle, a touch of petals, some residual sweetness.
Creamy-watery texture, smooth and super soft, simultaneously slightly dry palate, medium to fine, very dense, foamy, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well crafted, clean, harmonious, drinkable - very nice!

Bottled 330ml (Hoptimaal)
Amber colour, medium-sized white head and some lace. Light fruityness and touch of grass in the nose. Light-bodied. Light caramel and then citrus. Easy clean finish. Quite typical but boring old school Belgian pale ale.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ van Rooij, Culemborg.
Clear amber with a dense ivory head. Flowery hop aroma with some malt sweetness. Sweet taste with a medium bitter finish. Started out as a standard Belgian blonde but after warming up a bit the flowery aroma really is nice.
