't smisje

't smisje + india pale ale - brewed/bottled by de regenboog, brugge, belgium - 10%abv

this has a cloudy consistency, the color of a worn baseball glove...sediment in the bottom..when i tried to swish it with a chosptick the bottle quickly foamed up and overflowed.

nosed - yeasty white grapes, bright citrusy....

mouthed: very bright then quickly turning to hoppy bitterness with fruit in the background..this tastes like a yeasty hoppy grapefruit soda....

this is now a favorite......and i have never been too big a fan of belgians...now wait skeetor....let the man speak....i do not like my beers sweet, this one is not.......i do have my favorite belgiums (abt 12 special from st bernardus being one of them)....maybe i have just been spoiled by west coast ipa's....

i will buy this again...
