Bottle, 7%. Mild fruity aroma. Cloudy yellow colour. Very small, but stable, white head. The flavour is a bit yeasty, has an OK maltiness, a bit sweet. The finish is slightly rough, but in the good way.

Cloudy golden with a medium white head. Sweet fruity aroma with malty and caramel notes. Flavour was sweet with malty and caramel notes. Finished sweet.

A bartender recommendation while waiting for the Last Post at the Menin Gate. Sort of hoppy and yeasty with a bitter hops finish. Not bad.

Huge, light-yellowish head, fed by well-carbonated metallic yellow to straw-coloured beer. Bit milky, veggie aroma, slightly sickly, vanillated coffee milk. Same strange lactic flavour, spiced, starting with a bitter streak, then turning more sweet - lactose? Also, again some cooked vegetables or cooked corn. Medium bodied, quite slick, spritzy MF. It’s obviously a sought flavour, but I cannot particulary like it.

Botted 330ml. -as Ypra Vermeulen. Courtesy of Marko (thanks!), shared with heavy and him.
Cloudy yellow/golden coloured, medium sized white head, malty and light spicy nose. Moderate malty, a bit overriped fruits and some spices with yeasty alcoholic notes. Sweetish finish.

(Bottled) Clear golden with a medium, bubbly-foamy head. Aroma is very mild at first, but pretty soon I found sweetish maltiness with a nice fruity twist. Flavor is neutral-malty with some orangey fruitiness, and mild spiciness. Medium body with high and foamy, but smooth carbonation. A smooth and drinkable ale with just enough oomph to keep it interesting.
