1 March 2025. At Winter Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks to hosting, Tim & Marina, and cheers to the whole crew!

Biscuit, old rusk, peanut, vague chlorine. Bitter rusk, cereal, wholemeal, grapefruit. Grassy hops, quite dry. Medium body. Quite okay, not as crisp as your regular ISA.

Bottle from Spar Houffalize.
A: clear to hazy dark golden, stable, foamy, white head.
A: green apple, pear, plum, cake, minerals.
T: sweet apple & pear, sourish wheat, spices.
F: floral hops, ripe (almost spoiled) yellow fruits, spices.
P: medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation.
Been too long since I've had a KΓΆlsch, but this doesn't look like one. Overall a bit too dirty as well, I suspect.
