Can purchased at brewery:
Medium golden, clear beer with a fair amount of head and a little bit of lacing. A somewhat grainy nose also has some spiciness coming through. There's just a hint of nondescript fruit tang/tartness behind these two aspects. Medium dry opening with light carbonation. White grape comes as the predominant note to me, riding high atop a crackery to maybe somewhat cereal grain base. Herbal bitterness just tickles the edges mid-to-late palate. The weirdest note is where I think the spice from the nose is hiding - it has a little bit of a lime soda, or maybe a watered down citrus ginger ale, vibe. Overall, a little weird, but not off-putting. Not at all like Duvel, sort of light on Belgian character, and just mildly interesting.
