Bottle, from Waitrose Lincoln. Hazy gold, good lasting white head and good condition. Quite spirity and flowery in the aroma with hints of yeast and a faint wheatiness, a little thin in the mouth with a gentle wheaty sweetness and a touch of phenol and yeast, lingering sweet finish with a little flowery hoppiness and retronasal alcohol

Nov 24, 2009 Bottle thanks to the rep in the rake. Alround rating: Sweet pale honey malt, bit spicey and peppery with yeasty and wheaty esters cloying it up. Boring stuff.

Sep 26, 2009 Bottle courtesy of Barry (friend) cheers mate, consumed 26-09-09 Pours gold with plenty of busy carbonation going on. Aroma is a touch metallic and clean. Sweet malty taste, alcohol shows, there is a touch of spice and vanilla, its fine enough. A6 A4 A6 P3 Ov13 3.2

Jul 28, 2009 Slight metallic quality to the nose. Pours pale cloudy. Flavour starts fresh and citric with notes of gooseberry and grapefruit but quickly develops a cloying quality and a stale biscuit toastiness. Finish is more of the same, peppered with an over-carbed mouthfeel. Ultimately disappointing albeit refreshing - I expected a lot more.

Apr 5, 2009 A crisp looking ale with light round citrus and bread aromas. The citrus becomes even more apparent in the mouth lending a tight bitterness. The alcohol is also very in-your-face maybe even slightly too obvious. It comes across as a little overcarbonated. It is, however, interesting and has that distinctly Belgian flavour that is so lovely.
