Cloudy yellow, big foamy head. Bready, yeasty aroma. Fruity, a bit musty, and some crispness. Nicely understated, and surprisingly drinkable.

Bottle. Hazy yellow color with a medium head. Sweet fruity aroma with a yeasty note. Malty and quite sweet flavor with a yeasty and light spicy finish, but it becomes very watery.

Bottle (from Bitter Virtue, BB nov 07). Some alc noticeable amongst the fruity slightly spicy nose. Moderately sweet, body slightly thin compared to this and a short empty finish.

Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, big white head. Wheat, yeast, malts and fruits in aroma. Flavour is the same in a very wellbalanced and pleasant mix. Like a good little brother to the triple.

Hazy light straw/yellow body with a good size, white head. Soft spice on the nose. Very light sweet malt taste, some lemon, light to medium body and a touch of yeast.

Hazy blonde ale with a thick white head. Gushed out of bottle. Lemony malt aroma, with light orange notes. In mouth, a lightly sweet malt, with lemony charater, light sour notes, a bit overcarbonated (explains the gushing?), and herbal overtones. Medium bodied. Bieropholie bottle, BB 12/03/05
