33cl Bottle at Happyhappyjoyjoy East. Couldn't find any info on Lew Brewery but their address is the same as Naeckte Brouwers. Hazy amber colour, off-white head. Aroma of perfumey Earl Grey, bergamot, yeast, light malty. Flavour is floral, bergamot, light tea-ish, caramel, light malty, soft bitterness, yeasty. Light bodied, a little over-carbonated. Decent

At Happyhappyjoyjoy East. Almost clear golden colour, white head. A hint of pineapple, yes, but also a load of chili peppers. Decent golden ale, light fruity and sweet, but quite spicy and hot. ABV not mentioned, nor is the brewery, but all beers are commissioned/brewed at Naeckte. It might be by Hoppa! or Lew Brewery (Naeckte subsidiary).
