Sep 9, 2008 Updated: Jan 10, 2009Pours with a hazy golden orange body and a towering snow white coloured head, which sustains for almost the duration of the glass. Aromas are inviting, dominated by noble hops and sweet malt, in quite equal proportions. Palate displays honey, lemon, sweetened apricot and some chewy caramel malt. Great support comes from both the hops and yeast. Hops add a great degree of floral spice, while trademark Belgian yeast adds white pepper and star anise.

Aug 17, 2008 Bottle at Boshuis Venkraai. A little hazy, golden colored beer, with a thick white foamed head. The aroma is fruity, but most of al hop bitterness. The taste is hop bitter wit some candy sweetness. In the back some fruits like citrus. It has a dry bitter aftertaste. A good summer beer.
