Mackan: lite ordinär belgisk Tutti frutti men även med en tydlig brett och lite sur/söt eftersmak. Inte jätte spännande.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle: hazy golden pour with medium-sized white head. Aroma has a light malt sweetness with straw grass, citrus, and yeast notes. The flavor is yeasty bread with some hay, grass and light citrus. Palate starts lightly sweet spicy, with a thin body and ending with a dry finish. Nice beer, was hoping for more carbonation but still flavorful drinking.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On draught at the Struise Bruges Beershop, from one of those awesome bags of beer.
Pours a golden color with a big head and lots of lace.
The aroma is sweet and spicy, some good clean maltiness, and some fruity banana and orange character.
The flavor is spicy with some good pear character, some orange rind and a light alcohol flavor. This is a well balanced beer, fruity without being sweet, alcoholic without tasting too strongly of it. The maltiness is well finessed and this beer is all together enjoyable.
