| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Jun 16, 2002 Updated: Jan 24, 2007May 2006 750ml bottling (BB 05/2011), labeled as 6.0% ABV. Head is initially large, frothy, rocky, white, fully lasting. Body is hazy medium yellow, bottle conditioned. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (toasted grain), moderately hoppy (flowers, herbs), lightly to moderately yeasty (cobwebs, barnyard), with notes of lemon zest, pepper, gum, SweetTarts, dried pineapple, pencil shavings. Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately bitter, lightly to moderately acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, heavily bitter, lightly to moderately acidic. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, lightly astringent. Wow. Amazing clean bitterness makes this impossible to stop drinking. Beautiful aroma too. De Ranke is fast becoming one of the best breweries in Belgium, methinks. harrisoni (6830), Ashford, Kent, England

Citrus fruit with hoppy citrus tang throughout. Extremely dry finish with good citrus/lemon fruit flavours. Superb example of this type of beer 4.4/5.0
Re-rate Zythos 2008 on tap. I had more of this beer than any other during the festival. I could not fault it. The hop especially on the aroma, the hop flavour in the mouth and the hop on the finish were exceptional. Not many better beers in the world for me.
