Bottled. Golden coloured. Unclear. Dense off white head. Sweet and yeasty with distinct fruitnotes in the aroma. Flavour of spice, yeast and fruits. Is a bit bland and definately not outstanding. Medium bodied. .Sweetish and fruity in the end. Easy to drink and pretty much like a lot of other belgian ales, which by no means is a negative factor.

Poured a translucent pinkish-orange with a pillowy head. Lively carbonation. I’ve been saving this bottle for a while. Aroma of pears, bananas, honey, and taffy red apples. Sharp and spritzy on the tongue with some butterscotch and caramel. Some acidic undertones. Became more soapy as it settled. A decent drinkable Belgian. Perhaps forgetable compared to what Belgium has to offer.

33cl , bottle. Dark golden colour, with a white head. Aroma is sweet malty and yeasty. Some fruit is present too. Sweet taste, and fruity. A good drinkable beer.

Bottle. Golden orange, heavily carbonated, low golden blanket head. Tropical esters, minerals, sweet aroma. Slippery body, sweet pineapple and green mango notes, sugar, hayish and grainy malt lurks behind. Metallic finish, watery aftertaste. Cant say that I am thrilled.

Honey color. Honey and some orange in the aroma and flavor. Some yeast character. Mandarin curacao and honey aftertaste. Pleasant, but thinnish.

Hazy blond, lots of carbonation with a huge white head. Sweet yeasty aroma, Full body. Finish is sweet fruity (citrus) herby-bitter with some smaller touches of alcohol. Very nice, somewhat different.

Bottled. Blond pour, frothy white head. Smell’s delicious, a lot like a Weizen. Citrus and spice. Banana, cloves, dust. A bit slick and a bit acidic. Yes, that’s Japanese on the label.

deep golden with a big, creamy head. Nice spicy hop and yeasty bread aroma. Green apples that is also found in the flavour, which is generally quite sweet. A bit sugary. Good maltiness, and also spicy flavours. This beer wants to be many things at the same time, but overall it is quite pleasant.
