Clear blond body. White creamy head. Yeasty nose. Moderately bitter flavour. Quite ok.
33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ van Rooij, Culemborg.
Clear amber with a dense ivory head. Flowery hop aroma with some malt sweetness. Sweet taste with a medium bitter finish. Started out as a standard Belgian blonde but after warming up a bit the flowery aroma really is nice.

15cl glass on 3rd Feb 2019; Brugge Bier Festival. Amber with a white/off-white crown. The nose and taste are both malty and citrusy in nature; malty molasses give sweetness, the citrus fruitiness a slight bitterness. Decent.
3 October 2018. At The Monk, Bruges. Cheers to Bryan & Nicolas!
Pours hazy ochre with a big, lasting, foamy, off-white head; lots of lacing. Straightforward aroma of yeast, wort, ripe apple, apricot, faint banana, pineapple, honey, white bread. Taste is medium bready sweet, yet quite fruity too with notes of ripe apple & apricot; touch of yeast introduces a light spicy bitterness, adding subtle hints of hay & grass. Dryish, faintly grassy hoppy finish, lingering bread, yeast, touch of spice. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Decent enough, drinkable, luckily no industrial feel here, but boring too of course.
