Pours hazed straw yellow. Medium big white head. Scent is tart, hints of citrus. Lemony, by the combo rather than actual lemonaroma (or acid, for that matter). Taste is sharp, citrussy, tart (lactic). Clean. Mild hoppyness only shows during the aftertaste, which gets rounded off by a very malty base that's just lovely. A beer that provides an elegant, long going experience. Regardless of the low abv, this can indeed be enjoyed as a sipper (if you prefer to do so) but it's also a great thirstquencher in the summersun.

Can from Geers. Clear pale yellow, thinning, white head. Aroma of sour mandarin, lime, cucumber, kiwi, sourdough, unripe apple. Taste has sour cucumber, kiwi & gooseberry, a bit citric, mostly lactic in a sourdough & sour cream body with vague sweetish hints of apple. Tart, fruity finish, lactic, citric, bit wheaty, lingering lime & cucumber, very fresh along the subtle herbal hoppiness. Medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Low ABV beers are easily forgettable but not this one. Boy, does it quench your thirst!

One of the petite sauvage variants from La Source, a small group of low-alcohol 'session sours', this one fermented with kveik, containing wheat malt and spelt and dry-hopped with Sorachi Ace, which places it somewhere in between sour IPA (dry-hopped kettle sours) and Berliner Weisse, I guess... Can from Beergium. Large-bubbled, irregular, thin and loosely knit 'head' quickly reduced to a rim of snow white bubbles around the glass, eventually disappearing completely on a hazy pale yellow blonde beer with notably pale lime-green hue. Quite intense 'exotic citrusiness' in the nose: kaffir lime leaves and indeed Key lime (with which is shares even its colour), almost Fanta Lemon but without the sugar, crushed lemongrass, lemon verbena, starfruit, kefir, sourdough underneath, green plum, Granny Smith apple, hints of dill, chalk and bergamot. Spritzy onset, sharpish carbonation but not too bothersome in a 'small' beer like this, gentle tartness, very lime-like but also hinting at green apple and gooseberry, some pineapple sweetishness hidden deep within as well; slender, slick body, wheaty soapiness and white-breadiness in a thin and smooth way, given body by kefir-like lactic sourness which maintains a very fruity character till the end, when it connects with the Sorachi Ace in all its refreshing, perfumey herbality, reminiscent of dill, lemongrass and lemon verbena - and also providing a dash of bitterishness that in this case matches well with this light, utterly refreshing sourness. Bready and chalky aspects subtly linger in the background. Almost lemonade-like in its overdose of citrusiness, but minus the sugar; hugely fruity, perfumey and refreshing, something one would drink on a hot and damp day somewhere in tropical Asia, for example... Session sour IPA with distinct and surprising character, another unique La Source creation. Extra point for originality.

Good, fine, just off-white head over fully cloudy yellow beer. Very aromatic, almost perfumey leafy & fruity nose; citrus in abondance but also fresh young green leaves. Kafir lime, lemonzeste, grapefruit, unripe nectarine, lunaria. Only hints @ wild yeasts. Quite sour, immediate dry-out effect, bone dry. Citrus, lime, grapefruit, starfruit, unripe lychee. Faintly other flavours, more herbal than yeasty. Light, sparkling, very refreshing. Awesome. Another epithome in light "quaffing" (ouch!) beers.

Limoensorbet: check (maar niet de beloofde explosie). Lekker fris. Dryhopped met Belgische Sorachi.

Taste: pretty sourish start, lots and lots of lemon, some lime, very refreshing, lime peel, all citrus, damn this is good Belgian Sorachi Ace!! Aftertaste: soft bitterness, lemon and lime, some grapefruit, slightly soapy, bit floral, very refreshing and light, soft lime peel bitterness, zesty, super refreshing, really love it, this one!

Can at home. Hazy pale yellow with fluffy white head. Gooseberries, kiwi, wheat, passionfruit, soft flowery, a tiny hint of basil and popcorn. Medium sour, light bitter and very light sweet. Over light bodied. Very drinkable.
