Hazy blond color. Soft aroma; wheat, spices, vanilla, light hop. Light body; light malt taste, with a hint of citrus, very watery mouthfeel. Similar to a Blanche in many horrible French brewpubs.

On tap at Grand Place brewpub, Brussels. Gold, lasting white head. Tastes more like a lager. OK blond but not too interesting. Glad we got all of these beers out of the way between 5 of us.
