From tap at the brewpub. Pours hazy amber with a small diminished white head. Aroma is malty and vague yeasty. Flavour is solid malty with a light metallic note. Light fruity malty finish though with a lastin metallic note. Ends bitter, malty and light metallic.

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy orange coloured with an off white head. Spicy aroma of caramel, fruits and grain. Fruity flavour of caramel and spices.

Draught at the brewpub
Hazy amber color. The aroma is lighter than the aroma of the Blonde and Blanche, but at least the flavor is less odd than those, with light malt, some sweet caramel, candi sugar, low bitterness.

Draught at the brewpub. Dark amber - white head. "Apollo-butter", malty, nutty, sweetness. BAD !!!

Tap @ De Brouwers - Les Brasseurs, Brussels.
Pours pale amber with a small, creamy, white head. Mild aroma of caramel. Some off-notes of metal, light citric. Medium carbonation, somewhat thin. Fresh caramel flavour, yet quite weak. Light metal again. Not fantastic but better than the blonde.

Tap at the brewpub. Hazy amber color with a frothy off-white head. Light caramel aroma. Near medium body with smooth carbonation. Very light roasted caramel flavor. Seems a bit dusty. Finishes very mildly bitter. Overall light in everything, but it drinks really well.

On tap at Brasserie de Grand Place, Brussels, part of tray of 4. Yes, flattish amber with no head. This one is particularly herby, it was like drinking Cinzano. Plenty of thyme notes, quite medicinal and nothing else came through.

Sehr mild, fast wässrig, unterbrochen von einer dunkel angehauchten Herbe, welche eher lustlos erscheint und zum Ende in Windeseile abnimmt. Kein Aufbäumen, einfach nur minimalste Malzigkeit. Naja! 8/6/7/6//6

Amber coloured with white lacing head, rosey hues. Nice malt aroma with honey notes, and later, diacetyl/butterscotch. Crisp malts and hops in mouth with nutty notes. Rather thin for my liking. May 2005.
