Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il citrico. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di aspetto opalescente. Il colore è giallo torbido. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è contenuto e c'è anche una componente moderatamente acidula. La forza gustativa è normale e permane in maniera molto semplice e la permanenza è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il finale è bruschino, semplice e dissetante. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, agrumi, limone e yuzu.

Pretty cloudy blond beige beer, small aery irregular off-white head, little adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: pretty malty, yeast, fruity, some banana, sweet impression, nice. MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: little sweet, some alcohol, fruity, a bit oxidized, yeasty, spicy touch, herbal notes. Aftertaste: gentle bitterness, yeasty, a bit malty, ripe banana, spicy touch, pretty watery.

33 cl. bottle @ home, gift from Rick.
Hazy yellow with a white head. Nice citrus aroma with some grainy malts and candy sugar. Sweet taste with a bitter finish. Nice fruity Belgian blonde.

Short-lived small white head over veiled orange-golden beer. Aroma as from preserved fruit, sucade. Bitterish, sweet, fade fruitflavour, some exotic fruitgums. Light, quite slick, not much carbonation. Oh well. Jandrain-Jandrenouille for this? Thanks to Stef!

Beer with yuzu (a Japanese citrus fruit), brewed for a Japanese 'bierfirma' apparently settled in Brussels (like OWA); brewed at Jandrain-Jandrenouille. Bottle from an Asian supermarket in Ghent. Egg-white, mousy, audibly fizzing, loose and quickly opening head, eventually vanishing, presumably under influence of the oils from the citrus; warm orange-tinged apricot blonde, hazy robe. Aroma of indeed fresh citrus (yuzu, quite mandarin-like in this case), orange peel, ripe peach, minerals, bread crumbs, banana, soap, dried dill, camomile. Crisp, fruity onset, sharply stinging carbonation, minerally, piercing through an estery profile with banana, peach and pineapple impressions but also notably refreshed by vivid citrus; supple bready and bit cereally malt body, light honeyish sweetishness on top but subtle, minerally effects and carbonation 'stings' throughout, ending in a lightly spicy and even somewhat rooty hop bitter finish with a citrus peel-like bitterness to it as well, next to lingering soapy-herbal and bready accents. Saison-ish Belgian beer with an exotic twist, decently hopped, vividly fruity and refreshingly citric: better than expected for where it came from, to be frank.

33cl bottle from Tagawa Store in Brussels. F: big, snow-white, good retention. C: yellowish hazy with a lot of yeasty (YUZU?) debris. A: citrus, floral, fruity, bit lemongrass, orange peels, spicy. T: medium malty backbone, bit citrus, honey, herbal, caramel, yeasty, decent long lasting bitterness, bit more sweet but nice balanced and enjoyable for me, medium body and higher carbonation.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A hazy dark golden beer with a huge off-white head. Aroma of herbal tea, yuzu, yellow fruits, moderate sweet pale malt. Taste of sweet pale malt, yellow fruits, yeast, yuzu, tea. Interesting!

Bottle from a Japanese supermarket in Düsseldorf. Fruity sourish and smooth nice beginning. Very round and fruity on a mild and smooth wheat ale basis. Nice and sessionable with a fruity wheat mild yeasty ending. Very nice.
