3.1 20170219 Home, 33 cl bottle (BB 07.2017): A clear golden yellow beer with a big white foam layer. Later also some yeast in the glass. A full aroma of malt (light biscuit-like) and much hop bitter. Taste is light sweetness and malty. For the rest a medium - heavy hop bitter, which becomes dry. The body is somewhat thin, so the bitter stay long in the mouth.
3.3 Bottle. Light amber colour. A caramelised flavor. Medium malt, medium hope. Good every day beer.
3.7 een licht goud blonde ale een kuifige witte kop een mout en hop kruidig aroma van gerstemout karamel citrus de belgische gist bloemig en kruiden bitter in de nadronk citrus droog en licht
3.5 Veel schuim, mooi goudblond. Vrij weinig geur. Prima smaak, beetje citrus. Teveel carbo.
3.5 Kolor złoty, klarowny z białą, wysoką pianą. Zbudowana z drobnych i średnich pęcherzyków piana, długo utrzymuje się w swej pierwotnej postaci, bardzo ładnie oblepiając szklankę. Aromat owocowy, cytrusowy, słodki, delikatnie karmelowy, kompletnie nie przypomina klasycznego "belga". W tle delikatna ziołowość, ale jeszcze nie belgijska. Smak: tutaj podobnie, owoce cytrusowe, odrobina słodkich tropików, żywica. Całość okraszona owocowo żywiczną goryczką, długą, nie zalegającą. Wysycenie średnie, pasuje.

3.7 Golden, leicht orange, klar mit weißem Schaum. Malzig, hefig, angenehm grasig bitter.
3.9 God hollandsk øl. Flot farve og for meget skum. Høj bitterhed, men aligevel frisk i smagen.
3.4 Bottle. Color: Golden to straw, little bit hazy. Taste: Hopbitter, citrus, hints of grass, herbs and malt. Pretty light body. Medium to light carbonation. Smooth. Nice beer for warm summer days.
2.9 330ml bottle (Beerfox, Riga) Paleish, straw, large frothy persistent head. Rich pale malt aroma, bit of biscuit and flapjack, some gentle belgian hints, a touh rough. Light palate, pleasant carbonation. Slightly dull malty taste, again has the belgian yeast fingerprint. With a splash of the sediment, it becomes less watery, and more floral, but alas has some dirty yeastiness, not a nett improvement. Finish a little harsh and bitter, dirty. A bit rough.
3.5 Bottle from Albert Heijn, Warmond. Poured a clear straw colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is yeast, citrus, grassy hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a crisp, refreshing, big grass hop, fruity palate. medium bodied with average carbonation.
3.3 Amarillo shining through in the aroma. Beer is blond but taste is not white. Very malty but a bit too sharp in the mouthfeel and aftertaste. More spicy than fruity. But different than others.

3.0 33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Albert Heijn, Nieuwegein. Hay golden with a white head. Light hoppy aroma. Taste is sweet to bittersweet. Body is quite thin. A nice summer thirst quencher.
4.0 Belgika sofort da. Kräuterig und schön schlank sind die ersten Eindrücke. Ein spritziges und über alle maßen rundes Trinkvergnüngen hätte man sich zwar erhofft, aber das es auch so heftig erfüllt wird ,begeistert. Am Ende fügen sich wundervolle Geschmäcker von Honig, grasigen Hopfen und vielen vielen Kräutern zu einem atemberaubenden Ganzen zusammen. Stark!!! Und inspirierend. 0,33l Bottle direkt aus der Brauerei in Amsterdam.Ca. 1,50€.
3.5 Bottle from Bert’s Bierhuis in Utrecht. The beer is golden colored and has a large and stable white head, with enough carbonation. The aroma is fresh, fruity and with hops. Notes of citrus (grapefruit, oranges) and hints of spices (coriander like). The taste is light bodied, refreshing and fruity with some nice hop notes in the end. The finish is light dry and with a spicy bitterness.
3.1 Bottle. Golden body with white head. Aroma is malts some caramel and yeast. Taste is yeasty with some sourness and malts. Aftertaste is bitter.
3.3 Troebel blond bier met wit schuim. Geur: citrus, koriander. Smaak: een bitterige pompelmoes (amarillo hop) beet en toch redelijk zacht mondgevoel. Goede koolzuurprikkel.
2.6 Verry dissapointing beer. The Belgian beer with central eu lager notes. Trough all the bottle was trying to find smthn positive but could not really
3.8 The beer looks quite nice, but not very special. The color of the beer is golden yellow, like most Belgian Ales. The beer has some cloudiness in it. On top of the beer s layer of rough white foam is formed. The bulk of the foam collapses rather quickly, to leave a thin drape of foam. Some bubbles can be seen rising towards the top. The smell is something else. This is special. I don’t know if it’s completely my cup of tea though. The smell has a little sourness reminding me of wild yeast. After this first impression, some nice bitter and slightly sour hop aromas touch the nose. It’s the lovely citrusy, grapefruity hop aroma, which reminds me of manny great Irish IPA’s and Pale Ales. The smell that reminded me a little of wild yeast is all forgotten. I also smell some malts. The taste also contains this hoppy flavor of citrus fruits, especially grape fruit. This is combined with a nice malty flavor and a pinch of the alcohol. It’s quite the combination. To top it all of, I also get some yeasty tones of raisins and maybe even banana. It’s quite nice, and not like any other beer. A nice one.
3.2 33cl bottle at the brewery taproom on 14-May-2016. Clear pale golden amber colour with a medium sized head. Aroma of straw, sweet malt, pine and spices. Light body and medium carbonation. Some citrus, lemongrass and malt. Lightly hopped sweet Belgian ale with a bitters finish. Refreshing and easy drinking.
3.2 Aromas and pallete got notes of: grass, hay, dough, earthy and leaves. It’s got light sweetness in the finish, medium (IPA’ish) bitterness, light body and thin feel. Carbonation is lively and the taste is mostly on bitter, just the way I like it! A solid fresh beer with the yeasty and bitter not overdone but solid center stage. Well done!
