3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sampled at Zythos Beer Festival, March 7th and 8th 09 Pours amber with an off white head. Sweet malty base gives way to a reasonable bitterness. Quite full flavoured even a touch of spicy milk chocolate comes from somewhere? A nice beer but suffered from being consumed alongside the De Dolle Cosmic Porter which was stunning.

Bottle from Den Bierzolder. Finally a hazy pale golden beer appeared under the huge foam. Yeasty and fruity aroma, very typical of a Belgian blond ale. A bit sweet, definitely fruity, a light hand on the spices. Well-crafted.

3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle at beer festival of Vorst-Laakdal (Chiro). Hazy yellow-gold beer with a white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma. The flavor is slightly sourish and has some notes of lemon which makes it a very refreshing beer. For me the best of ’t Alternatief I had so far.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Huge light-yellow head, very fine and dense and extremely stable over fully hazy chromate yellow beer. Spicy, EU hops, something sweet in the nose (strange, as this is a full-malt beer). Nice, fresh aromas, whatever. Dry, again rather spicy taste, with more hops that are present, but missing a bit of distinction maybe. Peppery, chamomille-like flavour, and faintly sourish. Titillating, spritzy MF, refreshing even, but fading in taste. By far the best of ’t Alternatief tasted. This could vie with the subtop Kölsch beers, from which it has a lot of characteristics. But certainly not one you’ld want to age.
