At Bruges Beer Fest 2017. Pours clear blonde-amber with a small, frothy white head. The aroma contains citrus, orange (peel), hops, malts, herbs. It tastes medium to heavy sweet and light bitter, fruity qualities overall. Oily texture and fizzy carbonation. Tasty but dangerously sweet, because of the ABV.

Donkergeel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is licht bitter hoppig en licht zoetzuur met iets van abrikoos en citrus.

F: almost no real to very thin, white, quick gone. C: yellowish to pale gold, hazy. A: malt, spicy, orange peels, coriander, yeast, apple. T: malt, orange peels, spicy, apple, coriander, yeasty, banana, floral, medium body, light oily mouthfeel, low to medium carbonation, not bad at least, 0,33l bottle from Carrefour market - Saint-Michel @ Etterbeek, Brussels.

Golden coloured body with a non-existant head and some small bubbles on top. Aroma of yeast, concord grapes, bread, alcohol, candy sugar, apples and a bit of flowers - pungent, but not too complex. Medium-bodied; Assertive yeastie flavour with some light malt elements and a lot of unfinished caster and icing sugar along with some apples and pears, but not much else. Aftertaste shows some alcohol, a hint of grain, some flowers and mellow earthy notes and a lot of caster sugar with a touch of grapes. Overall, a pretty poor beer, but nothing offensive nor strong, just mellow flavours with alcohol, fruits, sugars and some grain. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from Beer Planet in Bruxelles, Belgium on 18-January-2015 for €3,00 sampled at home in Washington on 13-November-2016 on this side of the Atlantic.

33cl bottle from de Cagny. A gusher. Thick white head. Hazy golden pour. Average.

Hazy golden colour. Aroma is a little yeasty. Flavour also has light yeast but the finish is far too sweet like a malt syrup.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Alexey’s place. Thanks Alexey. Clear golden. Aroma of fruitiness, candy, spicy note, a bit of alcohol. Sweet flavor, fruity, estery, a bit of candy, a bit of alcohol. Medium-bodied. Too candy-ish and alcoholic.
