Fresh bottle 9/25/24 . Purchased in Vancouver at the West Coast Liquor Store. They always have 6-10 Belgians in stock, and this was first time I have seen it. Belgian beer with Genever it says on the bottle.
Poured into a snifter.
Big head..dissipates quickly
Lovely fruity smell, full mouth feel, taste of sweet citrus/ honey. 7% ABV. Best to consume rapidly, but 7% can be felt.
Both flavour and scent disappear quickly, leaving a pleasant but cloudy brew
I enjoyed it with sashimi, and was pleasantly surprised. Will try a couple more bottles for research another day.

Fine-bubble head, quite robust, white. Aromas weak, we can find some honey, fruit - mainly mango with a slight grassy note. All of these odor components, but too few clear.
Unfortunately taste even weaker than the aroma. Slightly sour, honey, sweet and dry - earthy. Hop bitterness at low to it yet simply watery..

Small round bottle, not much of a foam but smell is amazing. And that's about it. Nothing special to say about taste, weak, and fruity, seems too much of apples and sugars in general. +light, refreshing, price - like diluted higher quality ale, easy to forget.

Retired on BA, but alive and well in Holland.
Opening the bottle, the highly carbonated contents rush out of the bottle. Pours out a highly carbonated lovely golden tone. Fluffy beautiful head.
Smells of flowers, floral is heavy on the start, sweet bisquit, bread, apple, pear, just a touch of pepper, sweet malt, honey, yeast.Appels pears, add to the fruit notes
Taste is of apple juice, pear, pepper, yeast,floral-lavender, mai flower, wild arugula,
It sounds strange in the description, but it tastes like the wild herbs we use at Pure-C, the resturant I work at.
Spicy, floral, sweet/sour. Great balance overall.
At 7% I wouldnt put this at a BAPA but, nice Alkohol balance.
Easy drinking blond, but more complex than normal.
Very hard to find, but very good,
