Bosskie (216) - NETHERLANDS - NOV 16, 2011
Transparent well carbonated beer with a typical hayish pils colour. Beautiful head. Citric breay yeasty smell. The taste is well balanced with a very subtle sweetness, could be honey. Creamy bready feel.

Abio (1058) - Waasland, BELGIUM - DEC 15, 2010
Golden with an orange shine. Medium head that should hold some longer. The smell is sweet, fruit and yeast. Taste is sour sweet, fruity. A lightly bitter dry aftertaste, but the sweetness stays. Not completely balanced, but expected worse.

Flavor is moderate sweet and light moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20100703]

wimpie133 (380) - Brugge, BELGIUM - JUN 13, 2010
Bottle, 33 cl. Blond beer with medium white head, many bubbles. Taste is hoppy and light bitter, some fruitiness and orange peel noticeable. The strength however lies in the taste, where malts are combined with fruitiness and orange peel on the background, some nice sweetness of the foreground and a light hoppiness and bitterness in the finish. In the overall pallet however the beer lacks a bit depth. Nice beer overall, but certainly not that exceptional one.

Parket (521) - Bruges, BELGIUM - JUN 6, 2010
bottle, very nice golden colour with fluffy and stable white head. Smell: fruity. Taste: yeasty, fruity, oranges, alcohol. Easy drinking beer but nice balanced in my opinion. Beer to try again!

thewolf (8245) - Kolding, DENMARK - SEP 18, 2009
Bottle, bought @ BelgianShop.com.
Pours pale orangey golden with a fine, firm, fat, creamy, off-white head. Aroma has light metal, lots of oranges, toffee, light raspberries, light yeast. Lowish carbonation, rather fat mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, heavy toffee, some pineapple, oranges and lots of apple. Light viniousness. Just a tad too fat and cloying for its own good.
