(Bottled, thanks oh6gdx!) Slightly hazy golden with a small head. Sweetish and grainy with honeyish alcohol. Sweetish and grainy flavor with honeyish alcohol. Well, at least the aroma and flavor match :). Medium-bodied with a bit fizzy carbonation. Is this a cheap Belgian Ale or a decent malt liquour...?

Borresteijn (2756) - Amsterdam, NETHERLANDS - AUG 27, 2008
A fruity, sweet, grainy, bit alcoholic golden blond ale with a bittersweet slightly metallic finish. Not outstanding.

TrefwoordPunk (660) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - JAN 4, 2008
Bottle 33 cl, expiration date: dec 98. Pours a light brown with a tiny and fading white head and sweet malty and caramellic aroma. The flavor is at first pretty sweet, caramel, honey, ripe fruits and candy sugar. But than a more sour note, like vinegar comes in, maybe because of the age. The finish is both nice malty sweet as unpleasant sourish. I doubt about this one and will try a fresh one in the future

oh6gdx (16000) - Vasa, FINLAND - DEC 20, 2007
Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Sweet grainy and alcoholic nose with some mild fruityness. Flavour is very much the same with some grainyness and grassyness added. Is this the Malt Liquor of ales?

SHIG (2699) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - DEC 17, 2007
Bottle thanks oh6gdx: Poured a golden color with white head. The aroma was fruit almost wine, with fair amount of alcohol. The taste was dried fruit with slight hops.

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - APR 12, 2007
Bottle, 7% Very fruity, slightly rough and yeasty aroma. Dark golden colour, small white head. Sweet, fruity flavour, also quite yeasty. OK bitterness in the finish. Actually well-balanced, though by no means spectacular.

Light copper/golden, good creamy head. Fruity - mango, apricot, leafy nose. Medium-bodied. A bit hard mouthfeel. Fruity - bock-like flavor. Sweetish, liquerish palate. Enjoyable. Hints of hops in the aftertaste.
