Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a huge fluffy off-white head. The aroma has notes of spices and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.

Blond, hoppy beer, very well balanced. Fruity, a bit spicy too, nice malty aftertaste. This is just a great beer. I tasted it in Hellendoorn, where it is sold in the local supermarket.

Bottle: Big (off) white head that disappears slow, on top of a light cloudy orange amber colored beer. Smell is a fine mix of malts, barleys, sweets, liquorice, dough, cookies, something wood/whisky/oak ish in the taste. Good smell. Taste barleys, fruits, some sweets, more bitter, good bitter, herbs, grass, alcohol, nuts, warmth. Long warmth malty bitter aftertaste. Low carbo, soft mouthfeel, medium body and a light sticky texture between creamy and light watery. The smell is really good, the taste a bit strong alcoholic, light dry and spicy, just a tiny bit unbalanced but not bad at all.

Thanks to bierkoning for that one. Bottle looks very simple. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Starts malty and dry, a bit yeasty. Gets more and more fruity like apricot, modest sweet. Interesting!

Clear bright orange colored beer. Thick white head on top. Smell a little ginger, little malt. Taste yeast, malt, lightly bitter. Medium carbonation, low to medium body.

Special thanx to Bierkoning!!!
Orange-brown color, very cloudy. The beer foams up very strongly. Strong smell of aroma hops, slightly fruity, pleasantly sour. Starts with a lot of aroma hops, the spiciness is awesome! Fruity-sweet middle, again with decent spiciness, slightly sour, with strong yeasty aromas. Yeasty and fruity-sour finish, again with lots of aroma hops!! Finally, the beer leaves a scratchy feeling on the tongue!

Strikingly bitter beer in a lovely way, restrained, classy. Pours a little cloudy, dark gold. Some flowers and herbs in the aroma. Superb effervescence and conditioning. Baked bread and slight sweetness creeps in as it warms, along with the herbal bitterness (pepper, sharp spicy vegetable matter, fermenting fruit). A very good beer, and a great ABV level! I think this is quite underrated.Thanks to bierkoning!

Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is fruit, malt, flower, yeast. Flavour is fruit, hop, berries, malt, flower, yeast. OK beer.

Bottle thanks to bierkoning. Poured a clear gold with a violent erupting white head. I poured it in a new Belgium globe glass and the etching made this crazy. It settled down when I transferred to different glass. Aroma was citrus, slight pine, spice, and some brett. Flavor was pretty much on par with the nose. Body was was light with fizzy carbonation.

Bottle.Pours unclear golden with a big white head.Aroma of spicy Belgian yeast, dough , peach and malt.Flavor is somewhat sweet with some bitterness and notes fo citrus, yeast, spice and herbal hops.Medium body, lively carbonation.Nice flavorful and refreshing beer.

Bottle, thx to Papsoe. It forms a big, off-white head when poured, but it settles into finger-thick height quite soon. Some lacings. Almost clear, golden body. The aroma has some milky sourness, but mostly fruity. Some grainy notes. The flavor is a bit sourish, with a fine bitterness and hoppy flavor. Grainy touch. Medium body, too fizzy. Drinkable indeed, but it presents itself slightly unclean. Nice to taste, don’t feel like drinking a lot of it. 110219
