On tap at Bourgogne des Flandres Brugge. Hazy pale gold colour lasting white head. American hopped aroma. Cascades mosaic come through. Very easy drinking for a beer in Belgium. Lots of flavour. I liked it. Like an APA. Good strong tasty pine resin citrus hops. A west coast Belgian pale ale. Interested to know what yeast is used on this

500ml can from Carrefour Express in Brussels, Belgium. Pours a crystal clear mahogany color with a thick khaki head and great retention. Very good lacing. Zero aroma? Light caramel malt flavor throughout. Surprisingly subtle flavor. Smooth and clean. No standout qualities, and no bad notes either. The 8.4% ABV is well hidden too. Medium body. Lower than expected carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected.

Bottle, 4.8%. Dusty, mineraly, soapy aroma. Hazy golden colour. Ok stable white head. The flavour is watery with a touch of lemon and coriander. Distinct bitterness.
