My rating accommodates the addition of coffee, a non-traditional ingredient in the BSPA style. But, it is a good experiment.
For Looks, Belgian Bump doesn't give much foam, but the light amber is a very pretty color. For Smells, mostly fruit with slight coffee. For Tastes, the coffee starts strong and then the fruit asserts itself; but still balanced. In my mouth, rich and creamy; but more bubbles are missing... but I also can't have everything. The lack of bubbles made this a non-table beverage; but an enjoyable aperitif.

Micro-review to come.

I had this beer on-tap in a tulip at the brewery.

Appearance: pale orange hue with a moderate haze and a layer of white foam atop. I like it.

Smell: strong aroma of fresh coffee with a little bit of fruitiness underneath. A bit one-dimensional, but nice.

Taste: a lot of coffee up front, with an aftertaste more appropriate to a BSPA. It's an interesting beer.

Mouthfeel: rich body with a good carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: though interesting, this beer isn't super drinkable. It's probably better in a sampler size.
