Deep amber with an off white creamy head. Flavour is bready, caramel/malty. Soft palate. Medium body. Overall pleasant - but very simple. Light sweetness. Short finish! Very little sour compared to other Flemish ales!

Das Bier beginnt mild malzig und leicht cremig, dabei spielt der süßliche Unterton eine große Bedeutung. Diese verschwindet zwischenzeitlich hinter einem malzigen Ton, kehrt aber im Nachgeschmack wieder zurück. Besonders im Nachgeschmack wirkt das Bier dabei aber etwas eintönig, eine auflockernde Fruchtigkeit wäre hier angebracht. So reicht es zum Mittelmaß. Test vom 22.9.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,9,9,8,9,8 - 8,35

Pours a golden colour with quite a lot of white head and has a little sediment. A nice aroma of yeast and perhaps a little honey. The taste is similar, there’s some tart fruits and a kick of alcohol aswell as a slight hint of honey on the aftertaste. Good solid beer.

Bottled (BB 09/2008)
Amber color, huge cloudy and creamy white head. Lime-hoppy and herbal aroma. Carbonated mouthfeel. Citrusy flavor with sugar presence. Leaves bitter, metallic and then empty mouthfeel. Shows some alcohol. Not an outstanding strong ale, but drinkable Belgian.

Bottle: Golden, not completely clear, visible carbonation, stable, small head like half-melted ice; soureish fruity nose, a bit alcoholic, like a cheap mediterreanean white wine; sweetish-tart flavour, quite light bodied; a bit warming, grainy-vinous finish. A boring brew.......

Bottle: Deep reddish-amber coloured, very stable mid-sized sandy head; fruity nose (dark berries, a bit zesty, mixed with citrus-fruits), underpinned by darh malt; moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, light to medium-bodied; warming caramelly and sweet-fruity finish, followed by some bitterness in the very end. Nothing special..........
