Small white head over metallic straw-golden beer. It has indeed a nose of... rainwater, rather than from the mains. Fine, lightly toasted malts. In the mouth, oxydation appears, (old) cookes, malts and I suspect lightstruck. Bit of veggie - artichoke (would the nettles be indeed added?). Toast returning in the finish. Light to medium bodied, light slickness. Aftertaste brings some fruitiness. It’s definitely better than the mains’ water (that’s what the name means), but it should be kept out of the light...

Taste this beer @ BB summerfestival Mechelen, 03.07.2011. Hazy golden color, with little white head. Aroma hops, malts. Medium body. Taste bit fruits, malts, nice hopsbitterness. Love it. One of the best for me that day.
