This session-strength Belgian Single embodies the Brasserie de la Senne philosophy of high attenuation and refined bitterness. Pouring a hazy pale straw due to a grist including wheat and oats, it leads with an aromatic bouquet of vibrant floral hops and fresh-cracked cereal grains. The palate is defined by its remarkable dryness and high effervescence, offering subtle layers of white orchard fruit and fine herbal touches. Despite its light stature, a firm bitterness anchors the finish, ensuring a crisp, refreshing experience that highlights the brewery’s signature yeast-driven complexity and spicy fermentation profile.
Appearance.Pale yellow to light gold (3–4 SRM). Cloudy and hazy from the addition of wheat and oats, topped with a persistent, billowy white head and fine lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity featuring pronounced floral hop notes and a clean, fresh cereal malt base. Spicy Belgian yeast phenols, reminiscent of black pepper, meld with esters of pear and apple.
Taste.Initial impression of soft, grainy-sweet malt like fresh bread or crackers. Develops into moderate floral and herbal hop flavors with a medium-high bitterness relative to its size. The finish is exceptionally dry and crisp, leaving a lingering hop and yeast character of white fruit and spice.
Mouthfeel.Light-bodied and lean, yet smoothed by the use of oats. High, prickly carbonation enhances the refreshment. No alcohol warmth is present.
