200ml glass at Biera. A collaboration with Brasserie de la Senne. Hey Joeelllll - I'm missing toasting my near-empty glass of your beer with you to your apparent Euro 'disgust'. Meh.

This beer appears a hazy, yet bright medium golden amber colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly bone-white head, which leaves some dissolving ice shelf lace around the glass as it slowly dissipates.

It smells of gritty and grainy mixed malt, estery yeast, a hint of generic citrus pith, and some laid-back earthy, leafy, and floral noble green hop bitters. The taste is toasted pale malt, a further Muslix graininess, some gently phenolic yeastiness, soft apple and pear fruity notes, and more understated leafy, herbal, and floral verdant hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly active in its frolicking frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with just a touch of yeasty intransigence making a dent in the armour here. It finishes trending dry, the blended graininess losing some steam, while the yeast keeps on keepin' on.

Overall, this is a well-made, and essentially agreeable version of the 'secret style' around these parts - very quaffable on another uncharacteristically sweltering early September day in Edmonchuk. All others need not apply - yeah, I'm not normally like this, but, y'know.
