look: 3.75 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3
Amber color with a thick head with decent retention.
Aroma with citrusy notes of oranges, caramel, a bit of herbal medicine and biscuit.
Flavor with notes of caramels, floral hops, mild wood and sugar. Dry aftertaste with a mild bitterness.
Light towards medium body with appropriate carbonation.
It felt like a mix of Belgian Pale Ale with English hops. Rather sweet.

Crystal clear dark golden color with frothy white head. Aroma is quite sweet with malt and sugar notes but also some fruity yeast esters. Taste is also malty with caramelized sugar notes but gets more hoppy with earthy bitterness towards the finish and lingers on the aftertaste. Light to medium body, medium carbonation. Quite weird beer, like a sweet belgian ale with sugar and a good dose of bittering hops.

Pours a copper colour, with a small head that fades soon, but leaves a good lace. Aroma of caramel, toffee, butter, red fruits. Medium to light body, thick palate. God carbonation. Taste is similar to the smell, adding notes of citrus. Good.

Bottle at a random bar in Antwerp. Last beer of the night. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of light fruits and light grass hops. Flavor follows with some malt and honey sweetness, a bit of light fruits, and not much else. Finishes a little dirty. Body is light but the maltiness of this comes off as too sweet. Medium carbonation. Meh. No thanks.
