Fully hazy straw-orange beer with a small whitish head. Fruity & spicey nose, horseradish, sunflower seeds, and honey, and some freshly cut broadleaved parsley. Sweet spicey taste, with speculoos streak, and with orange sucade, maybe some cardemom. Tastes a wee bit young. Not very full bodied, some grist and green malt slickness; creamy-yeasty (end of bottle). Interesting but not overwhelming; what saddens me the most is that here, finally, a Belgian brewer uses NZL hops, and there’s nothing to demarc that;
