4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle: Poured a lightly hazy shiny yellow color ale with a large pure white foamy head with good retention and some very good lacing. Aroma of nice Belgian malt with some floral notes and balanced sweetness. Taste is a nice mix between some refreshing floral malt notes with some light citrusy notes and very well balanced Belgian malt backbone with just enough sweetness. Body is quite full with limited filtration and good carbonation. Very well done and I would love for more brewery to deliver such easily drinkable Belgian pale ale.

750mL thanks to noodleuser. Pours hazy straw with a towering white head. Big retention and webby, soapy lace. Sweeter lemon sorbet nose with pineapple and cantaloupe. Taste is ultra tangy, way over carbonated, minerally, over attenuated. Decent grassy hop buttering with light pineapple sorbet on the palate. Very delicate and nice. Good stuff.
