2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Simple paper label. Honey color, little chunks of yeast. Yeast and vinegar in the smelly aroma. Initial flavor has pineapple and honey, but is overpowered by yeast flavors. Sorry, not good enough.
1.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Pale, slightly hazy yellow with orange-green shine; very slim head, reduced in seconds to film. Terrible nose of Belgian "pickles" (=lots of vegetable things in a sauce, involving a lot of vinegar or stomach acid, and a sickly unripe mango colour). Fruity too, but VERY unripe fruit. Sour, diacetyl, acetic acid. On the verge of undrinkable. Infected as the plague. Medium bodied, acid burn, (stomach burn guaranteed). Boelens ought to be ashamed of themselves. This is not acceptable - and I tried 2 bottles, both undrinkable
