Mischief
750ml bottle poured into a tulip glass. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a massive white head. At one point I have to stop and wait because there is much more foam than liquid in the glass. It takes a good amount of time to dissipate and levels off at a healthy half finger or so of foam. Nice soft foam clings to the glass. The nose is somewhat subdued and doesn't really have all that much going on. Belgian yeast and peppery spice are here as well as a slightly fruit character, maybe some citrus notes. The taste is step up from the nose. The same characteristics are here for the most part. Yeast and the same peppery spice are prominent. The fruity character isn't as strong, but there is a nice, earthy character towards the finish. At times there seems like there is a citrusy aftertaste, like grapefruit or lemon rind, but it isn't consistent. Nice lively carbonation and medium body make the beer feel lighter. It's extremely crisp, clean and extremely dry. Overall, this was a decent beer. It says on the label that it's supposed to be hoppy and there wasn't much of that going on here. I suspect it may be better fresher. The beer did seem like it was missing something.
