Scheldebrouwerij, having sensed the winds of change in the beer world a bit late, seems to use their standard strong blonde ‘n Toeback for single hop variants apparently – this one using a new (2024) dual purpose variety developed by Yakima Chief Hops. Thanks tderoeck for sharing. Egg-white, foamy, thick and stable, regular head on an initially clear, pale orangey peach blonde robe with dots of yeast bits creating haziness further on. Aroma of stale orange juice, lemon bread, overripe peach, some banana, sweat, fruit porridge, margarine, milk going sour. Sweet onset, banana ester, a tad bubblegummy, mixed with peach and pear hints, medium carbonated with slick body, a tad oily even; cereally and lightly biscuity maltiness with retronasal sweaty accents disturbing the hops a bit, which are displayed in a promising, orange- and mango-evoking, but eventually rather ‘muffled’ way, bittering adequately but aromatically not being allowed to shine as brightly as they should. The alcohol, on the other hand, remains remarkably well hidden. I believe in the potential of this new Krush hops, but this beer does not seem to be able to do them justice. Drinkable postmodern Belgian, sure, but in need of more ‘oomph’ and brightness.

Clear orange beer, small creamy off-white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: fruity, some banana, a bit of citrus, yeasty touch, some cardboard. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, yeasty, bitter, pretty soapy, a little weird. Aftertaste: unpleasant bitterness, grassy, oxidized, cardboard, more yeast.

Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il frumento. La finezza olfattiva è normale e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma cremosa ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. La limpidezza è di aspetto nuvoloso e anche qui la grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La carbonazione è persistente ed insistita. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è pieno. Il dolce è medio. L'amaro è leggero e c'è anche una componente leggermente acidula. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, frumento, pane cotto di recente, agrumi e banana.

Pours a cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma of citrus, grass, spices, yeast, some hops. A nice tripel.
