Poured it into my Brasserie Thiriez flute glass. Label is the same minimalistic style that is regularly used by this brewery showing a man/skeleton drifting around in solar space. The label indicates "sounds of the underground". This was a festival taking place in May in Amsterdam that I attended last year, where they also made a festival beer that was gone too soon. Now to the content of the bottle.

Stable white head with medium to very coarse bubbles. murky orange gold with lots of bubbles.

dominant smell of noble hops, grassy, saaz hops? and pine, pale to vienna? malt undertones

taste follows nose, hop bitterness from beginning to end with little malt

medium body, medium carbonation, refreshing

very drinkable thirst quencher but nothing special. A beer that can be drunk by anyone who loves hoppy beer. Probably a good choice for a festival beer, but I find it a bit too common for a craft beer. It would be a great session beer though.

P.S.: Label kind of follows my tasting notes: malt is Pilsner and Caramel, wheat malt (surprise there, I had no idea), hops is Saaz and Amarillo for aroma and bittering is Target.
