3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Allen (2469) - - AUG 3, 2009
Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of Bov. 5.4 ABV. It pours a nice murky orange beer with a decent white head. Interesting pleasant aroma where overripe banana, chestnut, coconut, malt, glue and light hops show up. Sweet taste with banana, chestnut and raspberry as main components. Good balance. Lively carbonation. Some licorice and coconut sneaking in. Smooth. Medium bodied. Great balance. The raspberry notes add a lot to my appreciation of this beer- interesting. Some lacework. Surprisingly nice finish (not too much residual sugars), which is reminiscent of licorice and coconut- the best characteristic of this beer. Thanks a lot Bov!

Bottled (Thanks Bov!). Hazy pale orange colour with big white head, which vanishes quite fast. Aroma is banana, fruits and wheat. Flavour is yeast, banana, some grapefruit, wheat and citrus. All very pleasantly mixed. Refreshing, and very nice hefeweizen.

pours a very cloudy blond-orange colour while the initial foam quickly reduces but leaves a correct lacing; subtle banana aroma with a touch of grapefruit; the malt body is medium to full, thick, a bit sweet and with a very high carbonation; the aftertaste is quite long with some residual sugars, notes of banana, corn and a citrusy touch - well-made, deeply balanced and very pleasant !
