Pours a light and slightly hazy golden yellow with a big billowy white head. Aroma is very grassy and floral with a nice bit of light citrus fruitiness. Lots of wheat and malty. Flavor starts out with some sweet and candy like sugar. Also a lot of coriander and spices that stay through the finish. Finishes a bit bready with wheat and floral but a bit of alcohol as well. Medium body and lively carbonation. Very nicely balanced abbey ale that is smooth from start to finish

Bottled served in original glas @ Akkurat. It is brewed with three kinds of grains, in my oppinion the wheat dominates he flavour.

Pours a semi-cloudy golden colour with a large white head. There is a nice yeasty citrus aroma. On the palate it is very nice and light. Flavor is Of oranges, other soft fruit, spice, and a bready yeast.

My favorite beer. Amazing complexity....I’m often in awe. Amazing golden color smells of spices and light orange. Goes down so smooth. Alcohol is non-existant.

Golden colored beer. Fruity and malty notes. Some coriander and curaçao. The finish is more spicy with some alcohol notes

(Bottle) Pours an amber color with a copious amount of white head. Sweet aroma of wheat malts, clove, and candy sugar. Creamy mouthfeel imparts a fruity character. Dry malts and noticeable alcohol gives a prickly sensation at the center of the tongue. Fruity and dry finish. Quite good!

Slightly cloudy amber beer with large, very lively head. Good carbonation. Malty notes with some bitterness lead to herbs. soda and then on to unappealing blood-like metallic finish. Complex but ridiculously overrated.
