(100308) Mes_and_Sim (4360), Highgate, Greater London, England Apr 27, 2008 A Mes rate: bottle thanks to FoneFan drunk at Quinns for Casper’s birthday. Amazed this is rated so low, we all really enjoyed it. Good looking hazy blonde with a good white head and lace. Gets more and more cloudy with each pour until the last bit is totally opaque. Aroma of orange, coriander, good sweet yeasty notes and all round rather bloody good. Lovely perfumey tangerine flavour with some slight spice. An excellent Belgian style beer. So amazingly drinkable I had almost finished it before I had done my appearance notes. Great stuff. Big thanks to the very generous Jan and Charlotte.
