3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20On tap at Moeder Fontainas. Served gloriously, hazy yellow with thick layer of foam. Light floral hop aroma. Absolutely beautiful to drink, some yeasty character but primarily this floral hop, restrained and tempting you to think ’here comes my unnecessary American IBU overload’ but it never comes. Splendid stuff.

4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
bottle-conditioned 750ml. careful pour is lightly hazed light amber with a large off-white lasting head. rich hop aromatics of flowers, citrus / pineapple / mango, dried grass) with seemingly endless depth to the yeast (basement must, spices, dried herbs, minerals). enjoyable but muted crackers and bread crust pale malt expression. medium-light body with high effervescence and soft malt texture; strongly spicy and bitter, pithy and somewhat astringent at times, but with the malt soft as it is the hop brashness can be taken. chewy sweet pale malt sugars across the front and middle with a lingering oiliness late in a vibrant, spicy, mineral-heavy finish. lovely stuff. I wish a local producer could put something out like this.

Golden pour, fluffy white head. More yeast than hops in the aroma, somewhat funky. Taste - yeast, Grassy, lighter hopping, bready, lemon and pine. Very bitter aftertaste. Decent enough. I gotta wonder how this tasted fresh.
