M - This beer has a light body with higher carbonation to it

D - Overall this is a pretty good beer fairly average for an American version of the style worth trying if you see it

Pours a mildly hazy, glowy amber-orange. Decent white head that leaves nice lacing. The smell is mostly Belgian earthiness and improves as the beer warms. There's some nice floral/pine hop aroma and too little malt presence. The flavor has a good bit of hop bitterness, mostly pine resin, for the style, particularly in the finish. It's fairly dry, though there's some sugary malt notes upfront. It's an easy beer to drink, but there could be more going on and cleaner, fresher grain notes. Good beer for the summer.

22 ounce handbottle courtesy of Steve, thank you for the opportunity, was in the mood for something lighter tonight and I went for this, poured into my Duvel tulip glass, color is a hazy golden yellow color, thick 1 1/4 inch soapy white head that leaves a cloudy pillow when it settles, minor lacing, aroma consists of Belgian yeast, caramel, light wheat, floral accents, lemongrass, and sugar, starts off dry with a hint of hops, yeasty and chewy in the middle with more caramel than expected, finish is sweet with candied sugar and mild citrus, malt comes out more as it warms and the balance is thrown off a bit but still works well, slightly sweet, dry, and chewy mouthfeel, pretty light overall, medium body, strong carbonation, could drink a lot of this and finished the bomber with ease in the past hour, smooth and easy drinking, unfortunately this was my last bottle of this stuff, I really enjoyed it and am not usually a big fan of this style, would drink again, recommended
