Jan 16, 2009 Bottled. Orange beer which is murky with the yeast. The head is medium-sized, cloudy and creamy. The aroma is most all hoppy, herbal and resiny. The flavor is bitter, dryish and slightly bready. Some sour and a bit acidic fruits were also detected. Long and biter finish, maybe some toffy malts and even nutty flavors. Medium bodied, soft and sticky bitter finish. Overall the palate is quite mellow and smooth, refreshing and crispy. Incredibly light and easy fos such a strong beer.

Jan 14, 2009 11.2 oz bottle from liquor collection. Pours hazy golden apricot with a creamy white head. Aroma of zesty fruit, yeast, lemon peel, and caramel. Flavor starts mellow and hop-fruity with lemonade accent, then transitions abruptly bitter notes. Flavor leading into the finish is tart and acidic, lending validity to the name of this beer. Lemon peel flavor lingers in your mouth. Overall, balance was a little suspect, but I respect that this is a relatively novel flavored beer. Commendable brew.

Jan 10, 2009 On tap at Novare Res. Hoppy! What a nice surprise from a belgian. This is a very very good beer. Probably my favorite beer from that country to this point! It’s got the bready yeasty taste so you know you’re drinking a beer from BEL. But with a hop profile that packs a West Coast punch (albeit with different hop varieties).

Jan 9, 2009 330 ml bottle. Finland.
Aroma is intriguing mixture of citrus, hops and yeast. Flavour of sourness, hops and bitterness. Delicious! One of the best Belgian ales I have ever tasted.
