Poured a lovely clear gold into a fluted glass. Nearly four full fingers of bubbly head, retreating slowly. Spotty lacing left on the glass. Very little detectable nose - perhaps slight hints of citrus. Quite crisp on first taste, with mildly floral hoppiness taking over quickly. Seems a fairly generic blonde, with a single hop flavor dominating. Does do a pretty decent job hiding the significant alcohol content, which only manifests at the very end of a sip with a burn on the back of the tongue. As it warmed, an unpleasant, almost soapy flavor took over.

Burnt orange color, a reasonably pillowy white head. The nose is light, grassy and sweet. Hops to the front. Orange and other citrus fruits. A bit yeasty indeed. The taste is bitter. The body is certainly a bit astringent, well-carbonated. Overall, this beer’s interestingly all over the place! Like a dog trying to run on ice. OK, but there’s other examples of the style that I’d recommend first.

0,33 liter fles. Dit is wel een speciaal bier. het bier ruikt heel apart/speciaal. ook is de smaak goed. ik had niet het gevoel dat het een zwaar bier was.

33cl bottle. Pours a light golden with a small head. Nose : Fresh hops. Citrus notes. Alcohol and there is also a cherry in a background. Yeast. Sip : Full body but not a mouthful. Medium sour yeast flavor with fruity notes. Bitterness goes into sweet bubblegum on the end. Aftertaste is balanced biterness and aromatic hops with yeast sourness. Clever beer. great discovery ! Alcohol is well hidden for a beer with 8.5%. Still refreshing. Great job !

UPDATED: SEP 28, 2011 (bottled) . Its got the Duvel resemblance going on .. but a rather fucked up bottle like when you sometimes drink Duvel with disturbed yeast profile , ive drank Duvel 100,00 times ...this stuff smells gluey and flabby , lazy esters and saaz are not bright , thery’re boozy and peppery
this lacks the style and grace its trying to portray.
