Pale golden and opaque with a weak head. Sweetish-citric smell, like lemon candy with a wholesome character, like bread. Refreshingly sour with diverse hints of fruits and cereals. Watery aftertaste, like a subtle mouthwash to clear the bitterness.

On tap at ’t Brugs Beertje. Light sweet aroma with light wheat and pilsner malt. Mild yeasty notes but overall clean nose. Some light spicy character and even a little banana. Light golden amber clear with creamy white lacing head. Medium body with medium carbonation with some carbonic tang. Starts and stays sweet with candi sugar and pilsner malt sweetness. Not very refined and a little raw around the edges. Bit of alcohol vapor and some vanilla. Finish is sweet with raw sugar and not much bitterness.

33 cL bottle, courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours hazy orange with a medium sized almost white head. Aroma is light spiced, yeasty and caramelish. Sweet flavoured, light yeasty spiced and mellow fruity touch. Vague metallic note and slight caramelish. Ends smooth medium dry spiced and yeasty.

Bottle. Golden beer with a light head. The aroma is mildly spiced, and the flavour is tart, spiced and very strongly vinous. Overall a plain Belgian beer.

Pours a clear gold color with a nice thick white head. Aroma of fresh hops and some yeast and spices. Flavors of malts with caramels and vanilla, fruity like a hint of lemons and yeast. An alcohol and dry bitter finish. Great beer.
