Copenhagen 11/9 2023. 33 cl bottle from Spar, Langestraat, Oostende. Cartoonish drawing of a group of bicycle enthusiasts with a De Bie man in front.

Pours opaque orange with a mid-sized fluffy white head. Settles as 0,3 cm thick layer of foam just covering the surface of beer. Crawling up the sides of the glass. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a sweet and spicy odor mingling with yeast and alcohol. Sweet pale malts, anise and coriander. Sharp sourish scent of grains and alcohol. Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed and balanced by a medium strong bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a sweet undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is rather dry.

Surprisingly bitter and dry for a beer that they recommend to enthusiastic bicyclists.
