Just like their amber, very little aroma.golden, clear, white foam, medium bitterness, lightly sour, medium body, lively, too much carbonation. Dissapointing.

luttonm (1629) - Belgrade, SERBIA - MAR 22, 2013
.33l bottle from Sofia, Bulgaria. Hazy, yeasty orange with nice foamy head. Delicate sweet, citrus and yeast aroma. Quite nice light Belgian, not particularly refined but tasty enough. Lemon, yeast, light breadiness. Would be nice to have around.

Abijen (197) - NETHERLANDS - MAR 18, 2013
Just an above average beer. Not that special. It smelled floral. Pours a golden color, clear liqiud with a minimal head. Tasted light bitterness, light body, watery and thin texture with a lively carbonation what was nice.

kraddel (839) - deurne, BELGIUM - MAR 9, 2013
best before a little over 3 months ago pours blonde, white foam not realy a nose on this one, accept maybe the small ’aged ’ factor. . nice carbo level. taste is pretty common, but very drinkable , in a way . also a little more to the sugary side than im used to.

thirstyrabbit (719) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - JAN 26, 2013
Small bottle. Opaque pale golden body with a small white head. Mild yeasty aroma with some wheat. Taste is medium sweet and dry, finish turns sourish like a witbier. High carbonation, almost too stingy. Simple and drinkable but not very special.

sebletitje (5387) - Enghien, BELGIUM - JAN 13, 2013
33cl, BB 20/09/2013. Dorée, blanche crémeux. Arôme est malté et houblonné avec ce côté grains et profil typique de malts cara-pâle. Palais reste dans la norme pour cette brasserie, au final on retrouve une bière on ne peut plus belge sans vraiment être impressionné. Le tout ici garde une présence de levure trop en avant, côté végétal-légume et ce profil grenier le tout suivi par un grains persistant, caramel léger et un houblon amer-citronné des plus typique.

Marduk (1258) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - JAN 4, 2013
330ml bottle. Slightly hazy, but mostly clear color. Small white head, stays. Sweet, pumpkin, malty, toffee in aroma. Crisp malty and yeasty flavor. Very typical Belgian.
