A slightly oxidized grainy beer. Dry cobwebs yeast note with very little fruit or depth. Slightly sour and grassy finish boring beer.

Clear dulled golden. Diminishing ivory cover. Gently estery aroma letting a peachy and slightly grainy yeast nose paired with a good pils malt base. Slightly stale yeast character. Thin body tries to develop a creaminess through soft yet abundant carbonation. Floral character is on the edge of getting papery, I assume this is not one for aging. Not bad, perhaps a bit too linear for my tastes and could use a larger hop bite, it feels a bit too juicy sweet with this fruity maltiness. I’ve no idea what hops they used in this, but they appeared interesting to me, salty, herbal and pineapple like. I don’t remember that feel in many other beers.

Bottled. Golden. Weak aroma. A lot of co2. Cereal flavour with notes of perfume.

Cloudy tan colour; yeasty aroma of bread, apricots, dust and a hint of alcohol. Slightly tart body is balanced by a malty-fruity sweetness. The finish is a little sweaty with apricots and raisins.

Tropical fruit yeast aroma with consequent flavors, dominated by the biting yeast...A lactic touch undermines the omnipresent fruity yeast, and a watery end eases quaffability...A simple Belgian blond with no outstanding qualities and, while quenching, filled with disappointing moments of vacuity...

Bottled. Golden colour. Vague, little yeasty nose. Chewy malty, not much else. Tropical fruits are barely noticable.

Golden. Weak malty nose. Quite discreet malty flavor. Quite ok belgian but with no edge...
