The aroma is very spicy with notes of lemongrass, coriander, and more. The color is a clear orange and it has an enormous white head. The flavor is also spicy with notes of coriander, cloves, citrus, and a very subtle grassy hoppy end.

Bottled. Cloudy orange with creamy head. Balsamic vinegar aroma. Fruity, rounded and malty. Some cherry in the finish. Complex and tasty.

(Bottle 25 cl) Amber coloured with a small off-white head. Has some fruity notes from the ale-yeast, some malt and some indefinable spices. Late bitterness. Quenching but thin-bodied and hasn’t really much going on. Not unpleasant just rather anonymous. 050398

25 cL bottle at Delirium Café in Brussel. Pours clear cobber with a lacing white head. Light malt, slight metallic aroma and with a minor spice note. Light caramel malt flavour with a light spice note. Smooth finish with a mix of yeast, caramel malt and more subdued spice note. Distinct dry bitterness in the finish.
