Sep 20, 2006 Bottled - Bruxellensis - Courtesy of Dan Shelton - A dark golden coloured beer with a really good hoppy aroma for a lager. The smell has some sweetness and a little piney character The taste is mellow and clean. Again a reasonable layer of hops. Tasty and easy to drink..

Sep 15, 2006 [Bottled] Deep golden with a dense head. Good lacing. Love the aroma: floral hop and citrus. Big hoppy bitternes against a malty background. One of the best lagers I’ve ever had.

Sep 15, 2006 Packed with malt flavor, splendid hoppiness from the three varieties of hops. If some of the macros want a benchmark for what a peremium lager should be, they could try a bottle of this.

Aug 31, 2006 500 ml bottle. Golden coloured with just a hint of white haze. Throws a tall creamy egg-white-like head. Crisp floral and citrusy aroma. Grainy. Delicious aroma. Quite bitter and grassy when it enters the mouth. Lots of grainy and hop flavours. Medium-bodied, and with a slight medicinal flavour among the otherwise dominant hops. Very refreshing, but might be tiring to the palate after a while. But this is a great lager!
