33 cL bottle, courtesy of Bov. Pours hazy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma is dense hoppy and fruity, light hops sharpness. Sweet malty, light oxidised note. Distinct hops fruity mixed with a good portion of malt sweetness. Almost oily mouthfeel. Bitter and sweet finish. Lasting fruity impression.

Bottled (Thanks Bov!). Hazy golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is bluecheese, fruits and slight alcohol. Alcoholic sweetness with malts and hops along with yeast and fruits in the flavour. A bit unbalanced as for the sweetness, but otherwise really good.

Cloudy amber color. It’s not bitter enough to be a Bitter, not hoppy enough to be an IPA; it has some sweetness, and it’s closer to a Belgian Strong Ale; it has some malty fruitness, the body is not too thick; the aroma is delicate, malty, fruity (peaches and banana; in other words, yeast and esthers); the flavor as well has some traces of yeast; the final is a bit alcoholic, and there is really not enough bitterness.
Overall it’s quite pleasant, but it’s also a rough brew.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of Bov. Hazy, pale amber golden with a rough, white head. Aroma of yeast and citrus. Full-bodied, sweetish malt and very fruity accents with some yeast and diacetyl. The finish is sweet without much bitterness. This really is more like a strong golden Belgian ale. 150607

Bottled. A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is has notes of yeast, diacethyl, dusty hops, lemon, and oranges. The flavor is sweet with notes of yeast, diacethyl, and fruits - especially citrus fruits. The body is thick.

Bottled, thanks Bov! Hazy golden, small head. Aroma of calvados with a hint of grapefruit. Sweet with some estery bubblegum, lots of peppery alcohol. It’s slim body makes it dangerously drinkable, and it finishes with rather low bitterness. This beer does not provide quite what I exepected from it, but instead I got something unusual and interesting. After some confusion I decided that I quite liked it.
