This is how it’s done! Honey colored with a huge white head. Light peach, fresh cut flowers, and a touch of pine in the aroma. The flavor is light, sweet, and a bit fruity at the start before coming on strong at the end with a notable hop bite. Easy to drink, subtle, and still complex.

Bottle. Pours with a largish, rocky, white head that leaves great, very strong lacing. Body is a murky yellow. Aroma of oranges, fruits, dryness, candi sugar, and honey. Taste is a bit bland, dry and spicy with a bit of hops. Very lively carbonated with a dry mouthfeel.

A dry, herbal Belgian ale. Wild grass, light malt, citrus, and wheat flavors. Fairly complex. Moderate hops in there as well. This is really for a style that rarely produces exciting beers.
