Ivory head that sticks to the glass as you drink away this nectar.
Quite a golden to caramel colour.
Really clean start and then the hop bitterness comes in, though I would say that is quite balanced and then finishes with a slight fresh ?sour? note.

Pours a golden amber with a white head and fizzy carbonation. Lemony aroma. Lighter side of medium bodied with some tickling carbonation. Flavor of pale malts with accents of apple, light honey, and pear countered by a very tame herbally hoppiness. This is fairly sweet as well. Slight spicy finish. Decent, as it paired well with my duck and carmelized onion flat bread pizza. Bontus (302), Waasmunster, Belgium
