on draught @ Brussels 9th Belgian Beer weekend. pours slight hazy golden with big white head. nose is peppery and lightly hopped, nice and pretty fruity. flavor is fruity and nicely hopped. clean and refreshing. wow this really is an under-rated belgian pilsner. what’s not to like about this beer? 3.8
1/27/08, bottle. wlv chicago just got this in so I assume it’s fresh. smells fresh with a beautiful noble hop nose of leather, earthy, and spice. this is extremely drinkable light crisp refreshing with a wonderful noble/saaz hop flavor. just awesome stuff. this needs to be sold in 6packs not singles and if those 6packs sold for under 9 dollars i would always have it stocked in the fridge. oh course this shined a bit more on tap but still this is a wonderful belgian pils 3.7.

Oct 7, 2008 Pours hazy orange / gold with a large rocky white head. The aroma is smooth with lightly toasted malt, lager maltiness, some powder and spicy hops. Medium body that is full for the style with some mild carbonation. The flavor starts a bit too sweet, but is still nice then has lots of spicy earthy hops. The finish is quite hoppy. Nice beer.

Oct 7, 2008 Pours hazy hay color with off white head. Bready, fruity Belgian yeast aromas. Similar taste with slight hops and pilsner flavors. Light to medium body with crisp carbonation. I really liked this beer. A good pilsner with a Belgian twist.

Sep 29, 2008 Fresh bottle at bbf 08. I have had bottles before that have not been so fresh, so I had been reluctant to enter ratings. This bottle was mostly fresh- Pours a nice clear golden with lively carbonation and a nice lasting white head. Aroma is a bit weak but nice and fresh- earthy spicy hops and a nice delicate light fresh biscuity pils aroma. Flavor is also moderate to light with the pilsner, mostly watered down a bit from what i expected, nice fresh floral hop kick at the end and relatively smooth. nice pilsner but not a real standout.

Sep 26, 2008 I love this beer.
I did not have much hope for it, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Aroma is fruity esters, grain, and hops.
Very grainy.
Taste is grainy, sweet, slight hop backbone.
Very well done
