Pours a cloudy, pale amber color with a medium sized, white head that lingers. The aroma is wonderfully fruity, with yeast, apples, bananas, and a bit of alcohol detected. Full bodied with medium carbonation, the flavor is fruity with yeasts and malts. The finish is slightly sweet, with touches of apples, pears, and bananas and a moderate bitterness from the hops. Fanatstic!

Huge foamy head uppon the hazy honey colored beer. Fruity-creamy aroma. Strong flavour with good balanced hop and alcohol, spicey aftertaste. I want to live in Belgium or somewhere where i can find beers like that and the others from that area....

Bottle, 8%. Yeasty aroma. Dark orange colour, plenty of small floaties. Very small white head. Flavour is very malty with a good flavour hop. A little sweet and fruity, and very spicy. Good spicy finish, with a little alcohol to enhance it.

Bottle at De Kelk. Hazy dark gold color with a fluffy off-white head. Ripe citric type aromas.Medium body with foamy carbonation. Flavor is very fruity - like light stone fruit. Heavy flavor levels. Some fruit or floral hop. Not disturbingly bitter. Just good.

True to its claim, the liquid poured from the bottle was a nice blonde color. The aromas were subtle yet many, including citrus, spice, and orange hiden within the malty aromas. The flavor is predominate of 2 row barley with some fruity esters from the yeast. There is a crisp dry finish that is well balanced with an agressive bitterness.

This cloudy golden beer poured with a creamy white and a toffee aroma. There is a delicious caramel malt flavor, kind of barnyard, but in a good way.

A bottle. Golden/ brown colour with a medium whith head. A fruity honey aroma. The flavor is also fruity with some spices. I like it!

This was a damn fine beer. Cloudy pour with an excellent head, leaving an orangey wheaty liquid where an insipid straw colour was expected. My second beer of the day in Witham at a friends barbecue, this little beast went down far too quickly, despite it being fairly sour to the taste. The strength held to the end of the glass. I would seek this out again

On draught at Delirium Café, Göteborg. Stouby and I shared this sample. Pale charneol colour. Big aroma, loads of almond paste. No alcohol sensed in aroma whatsoever. Pretty lively mouthfeel with a citrusy touch of citrus peel and again - almond paste. Big, maltsweet flavour, yet not overly. Very flavourful, without flaws.

33 cl. bottle A golden almost amber color with medium white head. Neither good or bad, very drinkable, little character. Taste is yeasty, sweet, and light bitter end.
