3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Fruity, yeasty, pleasant aroma. Pours a hazy golden colour with a large head. Tastes like a slightly watered down version of Hoegaarden - less fruity, certainly lacking a strong after taste. Altogether a nice, drinkable wheat beer but there are better examples
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
A clear, medium to light yellow body, or maybe it’s just blond. The white, frothy head is quite long-lived, good lacing. A bit faint aroma, quite malty, but with nice blond notes. Yeasty, soap-ish, fruits, spices and herbs and lots of sweet honey. Light sweet taste with a moderate bitter finish. Lovely honey flavour, yeast, spices and faint light fruits. I think I get a small banana. Horribly thin and watery, with a dry yeasty chalky finish. Apart from the lousy mouthfeel this is a decent brew.
[33 cl bottle, enjoyed ~1 year before BB date, from Vinmonopolet Vika, Oslo]

330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV 6.5%. Pale yellow colour, high level of carbonation, large white head. Lovely and "typically Belgian" aroma with complex spicy notes, hints of fruit. The refreshing flavour has mild spicy notes, and is not too sweet. Moderate hops in the finish. I’m quite ready for another one.
