Color giallo oro ed abbondante schiuma bianca. Aroma molto fresco, a tratti fruttato, e con pungenti note agrumate date dal luppolo. In bocca il gusto è caratterizzato dall’abbondante luppolatura. Il corpo molto leggero, ma non annacquato, la rende di facile beva e molto godibile. Finale moderatamente amaro e secco caratterizzato dal luppolo.

Clear golden beer with a small white head. Good lacing. Aroma: American hops, grapefruit, pine. A little caramel in the background. Taste: Nice bitterness, low sweetness. A little watery but very tasty for a 3,9%. Good refreshing uncomplicated summer brew.

33cl, new Danish brew Anno 2009, from Slijterij van Bergen Eindhoven, not complex brew, yet refreshing, not balanced, clear, small head, simpel brew

This beer is a hazy light golden wheat, with a dense head that could last a little longer. Aroma is sweet from the malts, reveals the amarillo hops and maybe even gives a roasted impression! unfortunately the aroma is not very obvious, and I expected more. Flavor is quite flowery from the amarillo hops, and the malts are subdued. Finish is overly bitter for a wheat, and it actually turns harsh which is a big shame, as it otherwise would have been quite interested, though not balanced. Palate is very creamy for a 3,9 % alcohol beer.

A little hazy golden colored beer, with a thick white head. The aroma of hop bitter, with fruits like citrus. The taste is bitter dry, fresh fruity and a little sweet. The aftertaste is bitter with some sweets. I’ll think a nice refreshing beer in the summer.

Hazy golden color with a medium white head. Hoppy aroma with fruity and grassy notes. Taste is also hoppy with notes of citrus and light malts. Very refreshing summer beer.

Bottle. Golden colour, small white head. Hoppy aroma with fruity notes. The flavour is hoppy, with some bitterness, grapefruit and citrus. Bitter aftertaste, light-bodied and quite refreshing.

courtesy of Jespr - slightly hazy blond colour under a bright and chaotic white foam; nice lace; solid piney and perfumy hoppiness with wheaty tones; moderate malt body and with a fair bitterness; long hoppy herbal and piney finish - very drinkable
