Very clear, old-golden coloured beer; snowwhite, good head, dense. End of bottle solidly clinging yeast. Alcoholic nose, a bit of greenery, as fresh parsley. Neutral main taste, white candi sugar and alcohol, giving it a discreet sweetness. Not empty, but light all the same; slick. Very dull beer, uninspired.

Don’t shoot the rater, but, seen the double oo is circled on the bottle, I think it refers to the international indication on airplanes, Belgium being OO Fast gone, dense white head, shards of lace over fully hazy pale lemon-yellow beer. Overpowering coriandernose, with false orange/citrus notes, and a bit of hazelnut oil(?). Fruity, false-lemony taste from the coriander overdose. God, what ails these people? Wheatslickness, light to medium bodied. Another cartoon-like repeat performance of a Hoegaarden. I am informed this beer is NOT a definitive version, just an experimental version. As this might mean extensive change, the beer will have to be retried and rerated.
