A very wheaty aroma, too much so for me. That said, this has a great flavor to it. Some spices, a light hop, but quite smooth. Realy fantastic.

This is an overall nice light beer. It had a golden peach color, nice head and a nice light slightly sweet honey taste

Poured a cloudy orange with a good bit of carbonation and a nice head. The beer smelled fruity, with a strong citrus/orange presence. The beer was flavorful and fruity with some spicy, earthy notes. There is just a small hop presence that balances out the fruitiness. The beer has a champagne quality to it in its carbonation and flavor. Excellent.

Pours a slightly cloudy golden brown with some white head. Nose is pretty mild actually. Slightly hoppy with a little bit of a sweet edge. A touch of yeast. A touch of what might be described as a light floral perfume. Flavor is actually nice and full. Has a slight sweet edge to it that has a citric tone. I am actually surprised a bit. I didn’t expect it to be so full and even. It does have a bit of a syrupy tone to it, though it is not overwhelming. Mouthfeel is pretty good. Slight edge of carbonation. Very drinkable. I could down these all night and right now I am wishing I had more to be able to do just that. This is the first out of the Petrus 6-pack I picked up. It’s a good start.

33 cL Bottle. Cantelope and candied lemon. Faint malt. Clouded gold and pale amber pour, with smooth soapy fringe. Flavor is a rich tawny creamed malt and a bit of raisins and acerbic airy flower of sweet sugars. Satisfying flavors and awesome attenuation create a rising percolation that pushes stellar drinkability to the edge. A bit of phenols and warmth. Suprised by some glowing caramels in a nice crips Belgian blond. A bit of biological dryness and styrian crispness creates a flavorful finish. Excellent for the style.

VAn het vat in een klein Frans tea-roompje op een verlaten schiereiland. Blond en prettig in dronk.

Lazy hazy yellow, typical foamy Belgian head. First impression is somewhat of a tart sourness. Lots of carbonation. Body is medium light. Decent depth of flavor. Getting a good bit of spiced banana bread, and maybe some cloves toward the end. Pretty decent beer, nothing amazing.
