(Draught @ De Heeren van Liedekercke)

Draught at Little Delirium, Brussels. Yellow, hazy beer with a big offwhite head. Fruity and hoppy aroma and flavour. A refreshing nice beer :-)

Draught at Little Delirium, Brussels. Malty bready aroma, yeasty notes. Bready sourish flavor, some yeast. More like a lager, not much flavors at all. Kinda clean and drinkable, though.

1/VI/2012 - 33cl bottle as ’Betchard Tubize’ @ De Heeren van Liedekercke - BB: 14/II/14 (2012-567)

Note:According to Joost from DHVL this is from a small brewery in Tubize. Not sure though, since I can’t find anything about it online. So I’ll just enter it under this entry.
Clear blond beer, big solid creamy white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: pretty yeasty, grassy hops, spices, bit dry, dusty, citrus peel, slightly peppery. MF: soft carbon, light body. Taste: pretty fruity start, citrus fruits, peaches, little sweet, very fresh and fruity. Aftertaste: peaches, little bit of yeast, grassy bitterness, yet soft, some citrus.

33cl bottle. Yellow / orange with low to medium white head. Nose : yeast , wet laundry, banana, citrus, spices, cake. Sip : Creamy brew with low carbonation. Sweet and little dry. Develops well hopped bitterness on the end. It’s not strong , still is an honest one. Overall it’s a refreshing and easy to swallow liquid with a well balanced flavors. My choice for a refreshing drink in the garden.

(33cl bottle) Pours a clear yellow body with a medium dense white head. Aroma of mustiness, minerals, pear skin, and herbs. Flavor of pear, yeast, citrus, and biscuit with a soft mouthfeel.

Draft at In’t Spinnekopke, Brussels. (Had lapin à la geuze as others.) Looks the part of a Belgian blonde, and does the job without drawing attention to itself.

Draught at Spinnekopke. Malty and pilsner-like with some grassy hops in the nose and the finish. Drinkable enough but not at all interesting.

Bottle. Frothy white good mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma. Moderate bitter flaor. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.

Bottle traded from fonefan. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are malt, yeast and hops.
