Gerbeer (130) - vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - APR 27, 2012
330 ml bottle at Fiere Margriet in Leuven. Porus a dark brown with full head. Served too cold therefore aromas are almost non existant. I got was hints of caramel. Taste has caramel, sour malt, and spicy tones. Bitter finish. A bit thin.

Warm brown color with small formed foam. Marsalla and malts in the nose also good spicyness and a touch of sour apple. Taste is malty and light spicy and ends with a light sourish accent.

Pours yellow-golden with thin white head. Aroma is fruity, malts with a little alcohol. Carbonation-wise it’s a bit too flat. Not a fan.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy red/chestnut colour. Small head. Starts off with a rough bitterness. Turns malty and quite sour. Good mouthfeel. Above average carbonation, but small-bubbled.
