Bottle @ home. Clear dark orange to amber color, medium sized off-white to beige head. Smell malts, lightly herbal, medicinal. Taste malts, nice balance between sweetness and bitterness, lightly herbal. Faint hoppy taste and a long lingering bitterness in the finish. Quite decent. Medium body and carbonation.

Poured a clear amber with a thin tan head. Aroma of sweet spiced malt. Medium creamy body, flavour of sweet forest fruit and soft caramel malt.

Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass dark, modest turbid. Small head. Starts intense malty, a bit roasty, light fruity hints. Finish more and more dry, wheaty, unbalanced. Not too drinkable. Not so good.

Bottled 30cl (BB 05/2013)
Thanks bierkoning! Deep hazy ruby color, small steady off-white head. Berryish (strawberry) and caramelly nose with maybe some hoppyness and yeast. Medium-bodied. First impression is alcohol and bitterness. Then candy sugar, caramel and sweet berries. Tickling spiceyness in the finish. Amber ale with strong flavors. My first one from this brewery.

Bottle. Reddish amber color. Vinous notes and a hint of caramel in the aroma. Malty flavor with caramelly notes and hints of coreander. Distant plums. Yeasty finish.

Bottle 0,3ltr: Clear amber brew from the isle of Ameland. Thin foamy head, sweet fruity smell. Slightly bitter taste with fruity sweetness, at the end its becoming sweetier.
