3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
At flying saucer beerfest. Slightly skunky aroma, with hay and spice. Poured a nice Texas burnt orange with a little white top. Taste of Malt, yeast, hay, and all that good stuff. Watery but smooth on the palate. Overall a solid brew. Texas brewskis, FTW.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle. Pours a sucky amber with a nose of wet leaves and malted melon. Flavor follows suit. Watery mouthfeel. Infected? Migfht be.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Proving the wire cage on this sort of bottle is functional, after its removal this beer uncorked itself. Pours deep gold with a slight haze and a hugely active head. Aroma is bread, spice and a little fruit. Taste is similar, malty and a little yeast, though less funky than most actual Belgians.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Pours a clear copper with a small frothy off white head. The aroma is a bready malt and caramel. Medium mouthfeel with a bitter hop and dry malt finish. Easy to drink very good biere de garde from Adelberts.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
11.1 oz. bottle (bottle #09839) served in a shaker, because that’s how I roll- poured a 95% transparent light brown with a copper tint in color, extremely tiny white ring around the glass for a head, aroma of yeast, banana bread, pears, and cider. Hits the mouth with a light body, malt is a little sweet, various esters transform themselves in the middle, finish is very drying. Okey dokey.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at BTBF. Pours with a clear amber-gold body with a lasting tan head. Flavors are of cider, seltzer, sulfur, estery, pear, nutty, caramel and damp leaves. Flavors are watery, nutty, mild sweet caramel, earthy, medium bitter, some pencil eraser. Lively bubbles, dry, thin.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
750 ml bottle. Amber colored pour, with an off-white head. Sweetness, yeast, dark fruit, banana, apple, earthly, and slightly pepper. Decent.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Watch out, it’s explosive...The pour itself is a burnt orange sort of color with a tall white head. The nose is much sweeter than expected. Lots of sweet malt and fruit notes with a bit of yeastiness. Quite a lot of apple to it. The flavor is heavy on the sweet sugar and malt notes. Lots of apple and pear fruit notes, maybe white grape, and a hint of banana. There is a mild yeastiness, too. Really an odd, though not unenjoyable, beer.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
750ml C&C’d bottle picked up at Whip In, in Austin
Appearance: Pours clear golden/amber with a big foamy off-white head and good lacing
Aroma: Yeast, bready, dark fruit and spices
Taste: Malty, yeast, spicy with a dry light bitterness in the finish
The more I drink it and let it warm up the more I like it. At first it was harsh and bitter but it mellowed out and ended up being a nice sipper.
