Label claims 6% ABV Good, slightly lacy white head over clear yellow-golden beer. Spicy, pale malts’ nose, heliochrysum, grass. Dry, EU hops bitter, with a good pale malts sweetish background. Finish is dry hops again, peppery, and again a tad of helio- or rather xenochrysum. Bit toasted flavour too. Medium bodied at best, quite slick. Decent, even pleasing, nothing special. Thanks, Jezza!

Bottle shared thanks to Jean from Moeder Lambic. Very hazy golden orange with a small off white head. Aroma is vinous, white grape, light woody notes, mineral, toffee, celery freshness, a light nuttiness and light caramel. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter with a touch of sourness. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Really enjoyed this one, the wine and white grape characters are just fantastic. Such a nice surprising beer! [19-09-2016]

Imported from my RateBeer account as La Franche Forte - IPA 70 IBU (by La Franche):
Aroma: 6/10, Appearance: 4/5, Taste: 4/10, Palate: 3/5, Overall: 8/20, MyTotalScore: 2.5/5
21/V/16 - 75cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ Erwin's Ponton Tasting - BB: IX/2017 (2016-611) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!
Cloudy amber orange beer, creamy beige to off-white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: grassy, some marijuana, metallic, bit floral. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: metallic, very bitter, even after everything we've had today, unpleasant, bit chemical, tastes like a very bitter pilsener. Aftertaste: is just bitterness and metallic. Nope, that's not how it's done.
