(Bottled 2011) Aroma: Citrus, yeast, white nut Appearance: Golden hazy, quite big carbonation, but no fizz in the beer Taste: Blossom, citrus, grass, dry bitterry finish.

Poured from a 11.2 ounce bottle, thanks to my wife. This is a four year old bottle. The aroma is filled with honey and slight floral. The tastes is honey and slightly floral, very similar to the aroma. Showing signs of oxidation, but it has held up well. Carbonation is on the high side.

The aroma is barnyard, lemon, pepper. The appearance is a hazy yellow, slight orange tinge, fluffy white head. Sentiment in bottle. The flavor is lemon, fruit, pepper, barnyard. The finish is pepper, other spices. Medium in body, lots of carbonation. Best of the Westy beers, imho.

330 ml bottle, savoured at numerous occasions. Pours gazt tellow with a small creamy head.Aroma of sweet malt, summer flower field, citrus peel. Light body with malt anf honey aroms. Okay, but not more than that.

Tasted from the bottle, bottled on 19/20/2011, in Copengagen. Pours ultra hazy pale orange color with s fluffy head. Aroma is amazing, peppery, spicy, honey and flowery - very complex. Taste is even more interesting, a bit too honey sweet, but still has a lots of spices and tart fruits. Quite unusual aroma, lovely taste, definitely - Recommended. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Drunk at In de Vrede in Westvleteren. Color blurred yellow. Smell of hops. Taste is Hoppy and has something of coriander.

Blonde troublée par une multitudes des particules en suspension, où un col de mousse blanche se résorbe lentement en laissant de beaux motifs aux parois. Ce qui parvient au nez en premier, ce sont les levures sauvages, le fruit de la passion, des effluves florales des plus odoriférantes et un vent de ferme agricole. Un goût acidulé et épicé qui séduit les papilles gustatives et laisse une douce et agréable amertume en bouche. La levure est omniprésente. (514-220213)

From bottle - served in a glass - at the in De Vrede restaurant in Westvlederen. Poured hazy golden yellow with a large white head. Aromas of citrus, clove, yeast and hops. So balanced and smooth. Good hoppy finish.
