Typical bière de garde, the 8% ABV version of which is (or was) also brewed at the ’Proef’brouwerij in Flanders. Off-white, loose head, deep orange blonde colour, hazy with nice sparkling. Strong apricot smell, honey too, peach, orange juice, green apple, vanilla, freshly cut grass. Soft fruity taste, light citrus touch, again apricot-like, sweetish, mellow maltiness, smooth with a somewhat oily mouthfeel, yeasty, mild hop bitterishness in the finish, insufficient to balance out the initial sweetness.
