Hazy amber color. Some malt aroma. Light malt taste, some sugars, kinda bière de table. Drinkable but simple. Low bitterness.

A Mes rate: Tap at the Beer weekend Brussels. Nothing special in any department. Like a malty pils. Slight tropical fruit notes. Boring and lifeless.

Hazy golden beer with some floaties and a good consistant head. Smells yeasty and fruity. Tastes sourrish in the beginning and ends bitterish, malty and fruity(hop). Bit sticky mf. Medium bodied. Nice low gravity beer.

Bright copper colour with low carbo and a big soapy head. Slightly musty aroma with hints of pears, dust and bread. Flavour is sweet, tasting very different than the aroma smelled. This character is oxidized maltiness, plums, light spice and caramel. Respectable complexity. Not a bad example of the standard Belgian amber, which seems to me more a style to drink with your roast beef than something to genuflect before at Kulminator.

Sweet, yeasty, herbal, candied, slightly meaty aroma. Clear golden copper coloured body with low white head that recedes to lasting cover. Metallic, sugary, herbal flavour with mild bitterness. Medium body with lively carbonation. Bottle sampled with MartinT, Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere.

The Lure:
Mineral protrusions mar the orangey fruitiness. Toasted malts and bready yeast coexist peacefully, but cannot rally the flavors to overcome the mineral mafia.

The Festivities:
Orange pith battling against oxidation. Big bubbles and tiny yeast flavors point to the lack of hops and malty sweetness. This is just a boring amber ale.

Transcendence:
Watching a tacky TV program because you feel like doing nothing at all.
