Bottle. Nice head with ok duration. Color is pale yellow. Aroma and taste are fruit, yeast and malt.

Bottle. High fluffy white but lasting head. Hazy light yellow body. Weak barley malt aroma. Fruity barley malt flavor. Low carbonation, short aftertaste, watery and boring.

Bottle @ OL i Aarhus. Pours a lightly hazy yellow with a small white film head. Aroma has a little youghurt and sweetness, but nothing else. Flavour is equally subdued. Sweet malty finish. Low carbonation.

33 cL bottle via Lubiere, served at cellar temp. in a tulip glass. AU19/07

App.: Bright straw, clear, large, fluffy white head. Aroma: Light honey, flowers, a bit of yeast and bread dough; hard to smell through the enormous meringue(!); a little lemony citrus and light stone fruits. Palate: Medium body and soft carbonation. Smooth. Flav.: Pleasing spice and honey, light fruitiness – mainly peaches and apricots, off-dry, no bitterness with a pleasant finish.

Nice, light, inoffensive and pleasing.

Bottle: Poured a bright golden color ale with a big pure white foamy head with god retention and good lacing. Aroma of sweet malt with some spices and some yeast. Taste is also comprised of a balance mix between some spices (maybe from yeast?) and some sweet Belgian malt with a slightly hoppy dry finish. Body is quit full with some great carbonation. I though this was well conceive and very refreshing.

Bottle, 33 cl. (yesterday @ festival Zwevegem) Golden color with a white head. Aroma is fruit, yeast, spices. Medium body. Taste yeast, fruity, malt, a bit spices. Good.

Bottled sample via boutip. Pale gold in colour with a bit of haze and a bunch of floaties. Strong carbonation. Aromas of banana and spicy yeast. A bit of sticky malt in the mouth before more banana and bubblegum notes take over. Sharp finish and relatively dry. Not too bad... sort of like a baby Duvel.

Bottle (330ml). Via trade with Boutip. Poured hazy light brass, large fizzy white head. Sweet aroma of candy sugar, sweet spice, doughy yeast, pear and banana, some light grassy hops and lemon juice as it warms. The taste is a little more generic, faint fruit, not as sweet, nowhere near the spice or yeast presence. Light mouthfeel, stingingly carbonated, quick finish with a slightly papery aftertaste - not bad, nothing special.

White head on a yellow body. A good average beer, thirst quencher, but I din’t find it exceptional.
