3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a lightly murky orange and creates a huuuge fluffy head head, that settles down to a fingerthick head leaving lots of lacings on the way down. The aroma has that distinct dry fruitiness typical to Belgian yeast, along with some hay, caramel and faint hints of pineapple juice. Taste has a smooth sweetness initially but it dries out completely and that along with a bitterness sneaking in leaves you sucking your gums. Lots of tiny bubbles making it spritzy. It’s not very exciting though.

Fresh smell of pineapple and the hay-stack character of belgian yeast. Gives a good looking "café latte-milk-like" foam. Taste is aciduous with much pineapple and a bit malty in aftertaste. A distinct bitterness from the dryhopping also has a clear presence.

Bottle. A little hazy golden with big white foam. Aroma is sour-banana and spicy hops, very weizen-like appart from hoppiness. Taste is peppary hops little malt backbone. Flavor is mostly spicy hoppiness. Fresh with long dry peppary aftertaste. Reminding of Duvel but maybe a bit fuller body. I liked it a lot. A real nice belgian hoppy ale, simply but good.

Another in the "I can’t believe I haven’t rated this" series. Man, those travel lists are great for finding stuff that you thought for sure you’d rated, but hadn’t. But you know, it seem to encourage ticking. I’ve never had any desire to rate, say, Budweiser, but now I’m thinking I should so can knock it off the list. Anyway, this is a very cloudy beer, with a big fluffy head. Nicely fruity aroma, with a lot of apple and pear and honeydew melon. Falvor is similarly sweet, with a good bit of boozy alcohol in the finish.

33 cl bottle from Systembolaget. Thick, foamy, large white head. Somewhat hazy, golden appearance. Spicy smell with hints of hops, belgian yeast and both sweet and sour notes. Sweet taste with a bitter ending. The alcohol is noticeable. Medium bodied with some carbonation. Nice.

Big big head, watch out for over flow of foam. Aroma is big, yeast, coriander, belgian wit spices, viola. Taste is not as big, flowers, perfume, clean and crisp, good after taste of flowers and spices.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Stort fluffigt skum, “belgisk” doft av peppar och jäst, mycke smak av frukt och syrligt gräs.
Lite besk eftersmak.

Hazy golden pour with visible carbonation. Very big white head, ranging from foamy to creamy.
Aroma is hay, bitter orange, peer, apple juice, pineapple, yeast and wheat.
Taste is sweet and bitter with flavours of tropical juice, grapefruit, wheat, pepper and pear liqueur.
It has a very lively carbonation and a medium body. Finishes boozy and bitter. Almost feels like a strong wheat ale. Very tasty.
