Commercial Description:
Bottle conditioned.
Four generations of the Moortgat family have brought together Pilsner malts, Bohemian hops, and a unique yeast strain to create this intense, aromatic and beguiling ale. This Belgian favorite is best enjoyed chilled (40 - 50 F) with discerning friends or good-looking strangers.

Bottle. Pours very appealing golden, with luxuriant and long lasting head, with some lacing. Citrus and honey on the nose, and fresh on the palate, with overtones of hops, and undertones of malt. High alcohol content well blended.

Pours yellow-gold with abundant white head. Nice clean citrus flavors with bright carbonation. Goes from malt to hops, with a warm lingering alcohol. Refreshing AND strong, a fairly unique combination.

Pours a big white head colour is light yellow. Aroma i fruity, lemonlike smells a bit like parfume there is also aroma of malt. flavour is acidic and rather dry the presence of the alcohol is clear and there is biterness at the end. Carbonation is plentiful which adds to this beers refreshing quality.
