Pours light copper red with medium head quickly diminishing without lacing. Rather hoppy nose with some spices and a very faint smokiness. Flavor is malty with a well balanced hoppy bitterness. Medium to thin body. An ok belgian everyday brew.

Pours a deep ruby with a finger size white head. Beautiful crystal clear appearance. Lots of carbonation. Aroma of cloves, allspice and some dried fruit. Sweet on the front with a dry finish and almost no bitterness. Taste is stale and lacks any complexity - a disappointment.

Bottle. Poured a hazy amber into a De Koninck glass with little to no head. Slight hops on the nose, otherwise not much else. Crisp and clean on the palate. Hoppy with mild malts and a nice aftertaste. Slightly bitter. If you sat this next to a Bass Ale in a blind test you’d be hard pressed to tell the difference.

Bottled sampled a while back. Not the best representation of the style.. light on flavor and nose. Good carbonation. Overall rather unmemorable.

Some beerish aromas similar to lambics and some malt in the background. Has a real light amber color with a copper hue. Off white head dissipated with some sign of action and a little sediment. Has a broth taste with some eyewater tea sweetness inthe background. Light to medium bodied and a watery blended resin feel. Definite session beer kind of a mild chewy amber.

light reddish brown colour, filmy foam first taste is just like leffe, but not that complete, hoppy, long-lasting bitterness with some fruity taste simple outside, complex inside pleasent surprise

[330 ml bottle] Bright, red color, like raspberry lemonade. Very little foam, that disappera very fast. There is hardley any aroma, but there is a fain hint of malts. The flavor is ok at the start, with some malt and some fruit. Sadly, the flavor disappera veryy fast and doesn’t leave a trace.

bottle, nice appearance, taste is disapointing though, a hint of alcohol. I do like it sometimes on draft though, on a nice cold autumn day, but now it’s a waste of taste buds...
