JorisPPattyn (4282), Antwerpen, Belgium Jul 21, 2008 Slight gushing to good, dense & persistent dirty-yellowish head over straw-ochre beer, hazy, very well-carbonated, and leaving classic lace. Utterly malty nose, caramel, summer grain, sweet but with a distinct natural, honeyish aroma. Dry-grainy, malty without (much) sweetness, slight cardboard flavour, stale hazelnut oil, but all in all decent. There is a difficult to pinpoint, but undeniable light bitterness. Quite reasonable balance, palate doesn’t suffer from the cardboard flavour anymore. Pretty good beer, certainly for such a light one. Used to be different, stronger (6.5%), probably akin to the Double Enghien series, today my guess is unfiltered Super 64. Jerre (1353), Waregem, Belgium Jul 31, 2007 Bottle, 37,5 cl. @ Delirium café.
Dark golden color, medium white head.
Aroma is sweet, spicy, hoppy, and bit malts. Medium body. Taste = a good bitterness, a little spices, warm alcoholic (label says 5,2 %, but tste is like it have 8 %) For me it’s very good !
