2 July 2022. At Dok Brewing Festival. Cheers to Anke, Eugène & Evelien!
Clear yellow, no head. Aroma of white grape, unripe peach, cheese rinds, grass, wet hay. Taste has sweet-sour peach, pomelo & grape, softly bitter with a yeasty and funky hay note. Grassy hoppy finish offering tart yellow fruits, grapes, soft woody tannins. Medium body, slick-moussy texture, average carbonation. Pleasingly elegant.
