Hazy blond color; nice lace. A very original Belgian Ale, partially in line with the tradition, but with an understated hopping, making both aroma and flavor be also flowery and fruity; there is also some residual sweetness. Very interesting.

Bottled. Hazy golden colour, big creamy white head. Aroma is bigtime US IPA-like along with some earthy and grassy notes. Flavour is leather, caramel, fruits and some interesting yeast. This is a very interesting brew from much I have had lately. Hard to describe but really good.

From bottle@1ste BAB-Bierfestival, Brugge. Cloudy orangey golden with a creamy head. Fruity and spicy aroma. Spices hit the tongue-interesting mix, including pepper. Still fruity. Good bitter-sweet balance. Nice.

(Bottled@Delirium Cafe, Brussels) Hazy golden with a smallish, firm head. Malty, fruity, smooth and pleasantly perfumy-hoppy aroma. The flavor is herby-fruity with mild acidity and lots of lavender. Not much different with yeast. Medium-bodied, smooth-carbonated palate. A nicely aromatic and smooth brew.
