0.33 l can from 'Beyond Beer', best before July 2027. Almost clear, golden yellow with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity-floral, minimally resiny aroma of pineapple, gooseberry and hints of pine. Minimally sweet, gently bitter, quite fruity-floral and minimally resiny taste of pineapple, gooseberry, some grapefruit and hints of pine, followed by a short, gently bitter, slightly dry finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Decent, not overly westcoast-like though.

0.33 l can from 'Beyond Beer', best before July 2027. Very hazy, golden yellow with a large, dense, stable, white head. Sweetish, quite fruity-floral, slightly yeasty-spicy aroma of lemon peel, pineapple, some banana and light bergamot. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, rather fruity-floral, slightly grassy and minimally yeasty-spicy taste of pineapple, lemon peel, some banana and hints of honey, followed by a short, gently bitter finish. Medium body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Nice one.

A wonderful experience with this beer, an amazing union between the Belgian and the American tradition, apricot/hoppy, sweet and malty, 22.11.19, at my rented house, Hoofdroop.
