750 ml bottle purchased at Blue Max in Burnsville Minnesota. Pour is a hazy cloudy burnt orange and brown with a 3 inch tan head which is very lasting. Lacing coats the glass as it falls. Aroma of hay and earthy straw right away, followed by grainy malt and yeast spiciness. Taste reverses the order a bit, starting with bright cilantro and white pepper spice, followed by a very natural straw and grass flavor. The transition between the two is quite smooth. In the finish there is some chewy, semi-sweet maltiness that rounds this up nicely. As it warms, the dry yeast spiciness really shines - along with a woodiness II didn’t get initially. Round, integrated, very tasty beer. Palate is medium, finishing dry - quite drinkable. Another great one from De La Senne.
