Very crisp and substantial.

A heavy frame with a sharp finish — a rare combination that stays pointed on the tongue.

Wider bands mean we're less certain about the exact position.

Aroma

The nose is dominated by classic Belgian yeast esters—prominent banana and stone fruit notes mingle with warm spice character of clove and white pepper. Delicate floral and herbal undertones emerge with continued nosing, creating a complex aromatic profile that showcases sophisticated fermentation character.

Taste

The palate opens with honeyed sweetness balanced by subtle citrus notes and warming alcohol presence. Mid-palate reveals layered spice—both clove and peppery notes—alongside yeasty complexity, while the restrained bitterness (28 IBU) allows fruit and honey to shine without overwhelming the senses.

Finish
