473ml can - a 'hoppy blonde ale with grapefruit peel'.

This beer pours a mostly clear, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, rocky, and somewhat fizzy off-white head, which leaves some decent wafting campfire smoke pattern lace around the glass as it quickly evaporates.

It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some estery yeastiness, muddled domestic citrus peel, a faint black peppercorn spiciness, and some plain leafy, herbal, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, some mixed orange and lemon citrus rind, mild earthy yeast, and more ethereal leafy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.

The carbonation is average in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body an adequate medium weight, and more or less smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a so-so time at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the citrus and inherent yeastiness presiding.

Overall - yeah, I am really getting fucking tired of these Belgian-styled, yeasty up the behind offerings, which come across like something that's only half-baked (literally). Usually I'm a fan-boy of this brewery, but for this one, Imma taking a hard pass, so very sorry to say.
