Can courtesy of Summer Santa. Pours clear deep golden with a frothy offwhite head that doesn’t leave much trace on the glass. Smell is floral, tiny fruity and tiny spicy with white bread, caramel, mango, hay, dried flowers, white sugar, minerals and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, slightly bitter and floral. Mouthfeel is soft, round, slightly astringent and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and bitter with white bread, honey, hay, minerals and lemon peal. Not very Belgian but very much a golden ale. Goes down easy enough.
