Bottled, thanks to Carl himself for sharing. A hazy golden beer wtih a thick cream colored head. The aroma is sweet malty with lots of spices, hops, and fruit notes - the fruits being pineapple, oranges, and peaches - lovely aroma. The flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of fruits, now being oranges and mango, as well as a light note of yeast. The body is quite light for a Belgian beer.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of fiulijn. Hazy golden with a tall and lively and somewhat rough head. Rather spicy aroma with some yeast. Quite full-bodied, plenty of fruit accents, lightly sweet malts and some phenols. The carbonation is quite lively. Surprisingly hoppy finish - for a Belgian that is. 310807

75 cL bottle. Pours hzy yellow with a huge crispy white head lacing a thick lacing cream head. Apple citrus aroma, with a wheat like note. Quite grapefruit flavoured with soft carbonation giving a refreshing mouthfeel. Bitter finish. Nice although simple.

Hazy golden color. Nice aroma, flowery (elderflowers, orange blossoms...), and with a touch of vanilla. Thin mouthfeel, with a dry malt flavor, and still a nice flowery imprint. The bitteness is ordinary, unfortunately nothing like expected. Still, a very original beer, refreshing and very pleasant.

Bottled. Really hazy orange colour, not very much head. Aroma is yeast, flowery hops, caramel, some earth and fruits. Flavour is yeast, citrusfruits, malts, alcohol, toffee. Leaves a quite sticky palate.
