6.1/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
(bottle, 75cl) Hazy, pale golden colour with a blond and firm medium-sized foamy head. Moderately yeasty-spicy and wheaty aroma with notes of lemon, white bread and delicately flowery hops. Mildly sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a modest carbonation. Initially grainy and slightly mineralic taste with hints of white bread and lighter fruity notes; mildly sweet and restrained bitter finish. Decent but somewhat lacks the “Belgian” character. 08.II.18

Big thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Fine hoppy-fruity aroma. Starts hoppy, fruity notes of lemon, apricot, light sourish. Mild bitter background. All in all well balanced. Quite drinkable. Really nice one!

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass copper coloured, nice small head. Starts mild, malty, light roasty. Shy hoppy notes. Well balanced finish, light caramel hints. Not bad.

Bottle courtesy of Gabriel. Pours slightly hazy amber colour with a lasting foamy off-white head. Aroma of caramel, hop, malt, fruit, pine and yeast. Medium plus sweetness, light bitterness. Medium body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Malty caramel finish, with some additional bitterness developing. Not bad.

(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, amber colour with a big and firm, slightly off-white foamy head. Surprisingly hoppy aroma with notes of berries, citrus and lime, backed by mildly toasted malt and a whiff of caramel. Mildly bitter and delicately sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly toasted malt character with caramel, bread crusts, as well as present fruity and spicy hops; moderately bitter hoppy and spicy finish. Very nice. 04.III.18

33cl long neck, pours a clear, incandescent ruby red with some frothy, white head. Nose is nice, true, malt, bread, yeast, cracker. Simple. Flavor is again simple but well done, malt, yeast, cracker, bread. Finishes dry. Grew on me, a lot.
