Deep hazy, slightly murky, golden color with strong activity and some floating yeast. Thick foamy light beige 4 finger head, lasting around 15-20 minutes, with good legs and swirl reaction. Flavors of peach, grapefruits, sweet barley, caramel, Belgian yeast, with floral and herbal hops. Slick and smooth medium body with extra crispy carbonation. Medium strength finish, dominant flowery and dry hopped feel, also lots of tropical fruits. Quite mellow, not leafy nor very bitter. Great balance with hints of hay and straw. The intensity is really nice and the drinkability is high with sharp freshness and good attenuation. Overall excellent quality craft.

Best Before: Either June or July of 2019
A:
Pours a hazy straw with a billlowing cream-colored head that is very solid. Rocky retention; gorgeous lacing. (4.5)
S:
Spicy, citrusy, Euro-y hop aromas with some vaguely tart/spicy yeast character. (3.5)
T:
Bready malt with some citrusy hops, white pepper and an herbal bite. (4)
M:
Fluffy with a lingering light hop feel, a little thin and very lightly astringent. (3.75)
O:
This is a pretty nice beer.
It reminds me of a slightly hoppier, less full/strong version of Duvel. Peppery yeast and herbal/citrusy hops and a generally pretty European hop presence. It is drinkable and very nice looking. None of it really pops and it feels a touch hollow flavor-wise.
A nice enough beer that I'd have again, but it didn't really wow me, either. (3.75)

750mL version
Looks: hazy, light golden (hay) color with a thick sticky coarse foam
Smell: lemon, tangerine citrus, almost barn-yardy
Taste: lemon/grapefruity estery, floral yeasty flavor upfront. there's certainly hop flavor that happens to knock on the door. subtle notes here. then when i think this lingering grapefruity note must be hop-driven, not yeast... interesting flavor (in very good way). almost saison like
Feel: dry finish. nice
Overall: a great beer. very balanced without in-your-face approaches I have encountered in belgian IPA category. I almost think this is closer to saison than belgian IPA.

Pretty average, over carbonated, and even though it is hoppy has no real structure or depth.

The only bottle of this I can find has been sitting for a few years in a cooler at a local retail establishment that prides itself in its massive selection. Popping the cap releases volcanic foam, but fortunately it subsides and quits running all over the counter just before it cascades over the edge onto the floor. I get enough for a decent pour. The nose is fruit and spice without a lot of hop. It pours pale, hazy peachy gold, clean with no chunks. In the glass it has a 2 – 3” pillowy foam cap. It is very creamy on the palate suggesting a peach foam or mousse joined by cantaloupe and coriander and nutmeg. There is some orange and a hint of banana in the background and a touch of pepper in the finish. It has a very effervescent texture with a little slickness like you would find in an oat stout.

One of my favorites of last year.
L: absolutely perfect; great top; thick foam; sticking to the glass;
S: nice soft smell which is quite surprising for such a hopped beer; green gras, citrus, cannabis, vanilla, milk, hops, wood,;
T: great softness in harmony with a small bitterishness;
M: absolutely 5 out of 5: great alcohol (not too heavy), great carbonation, round aftertaste, great-great-great drinkability; gimmemore!
O: absolutely top; the Triple Karmeliet under the extra hopped beers.

750ml bottle. Chalice glass. Pale straw color, cloudy appearance. White froth, close & thick crown, copious lacing. Floral, Belgian yeast, green wood, green apple & fruit aromas rounded by lemon zest hues. Sweet, malty, slight tartar & citric flavors. Light to medium body. Moderate to high carbonation. Dried & dense mouthfeel. Sharp hoppiness & green wood notes in the middle. Bitter finish but a sweet steam trough it. Refreshing, hoppy & delightful.
