Bottle, at Paters Vaeje, Antwerp, Belgium 06-10-06 and somewhere else later on. Warm golden colour with a medium foamy head. Some nice honey like aromas, and soft fruits. The taste didn’t depart from this too much either and was quite nice tasting, lighter and easier drinking than the strength would suggest it would. This was the favourite label and glass of Loz and Lynn, but no matter of persuaion could get the owner to part with this one.
