Bottle from Carrefour in Ninove. Pours clear dark golden with a lasting, very thin, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of honey, orange peel, peach, hay, onion, grass, white bread, pineapple juice. Taste is medium fruity sweet, notes of pineapple & orange, banana too perhaps, on a bready & honey-like malty base; light to medium spicy bitter middle has grass & early floral hop bitterness, quite yeasty too with vague sourish wheat. Dry, floral hoppy finish, bit yeasty & grassy, lingering orange & honey. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Quite 'correct' & nice to drink but not very special. By the way, the ABV on the label noted 5.69%, and 'Chatte' or 'Foefke' is not your average house cat. Pervs!
Bottle @ home. Dark golden color (turns vague ugly dark orange after pouring in the last bit), average sized white head. Smell and taste malts, slightly herbal / spice notes in the background, initially a bit sweet, going towards a little bitterness in the finish. There's an underlying fruity note here as well, might be banana-ish with a touch of orangepeel. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Meh.
