Tap @ BT. Very light and easy. Semi one dimentional. Not much spice or hops and a thin caramel sweet body. Some light roast and nuts smooth it out to give it some depth. Not my fav.

Nice light, refreshing yet flavourfull brew with allot of belgian yeast and traditional hops in both the flavour and aroma. The finish is short, lightly acidic and dry. Rather nice actually. Thanks to fredandboboflo for the bottle.

Bottle from beerbill, thank you ! Cloudy golden with a white head. Nice spice rack, peppercorn aromas with dusty pale malt. Medium body. Good flavor is again dusty malts with dry spices, with a hint of sulfer/ burnt rubber. Not too bad.

22oz bottle. Heavy aroma, mainly focused on bread crust, lightly phenolic yeast and some corn huskiness. A bit of cobwebby dustiness. Very faint dishsoap and citrus hops. Lemon zest as the beer warms. Pours a thick, hazy orange/blond with a thick white head quickly dissipating to a thin gray film. Flavor focuses on bready and biscuity malt. I’d like to see some more of that cobweb in the flavor. Mildly zesty hops. Light phenolic yeast. A bit of tartness on the sides of the tongue near the finish. Creamy body. Lush carbonation. Rather complex for 4.5%. Immensely drinkable. Good stuff. Thanks Kevin!

Thanks to TheCheeseman for this. Pours a cloudy golden color with a lemon and biscuit nose. Flavor is bitter lemon with some yeast and malts. Very good.

Hazy pale gold, moderate white head. Sweet nose of banana and lemon zest, bread, and yeast. Very sweet, malty flavor, some yeast and pepper giving it some dimension. Strong, slightly medicinal lemon follows into the finish alongside bread. Carbonated but light, very drinkable. Tasty stuff, if not wildly complex.
