kappldav123 (3286) - Markkleeberg, GERMANY - AUG 3, 2011
The bottle looks very simple. The beer in the glass deep golden, small head. Alcoholic aroma. Starts milder than exspected, fruity-sourish, a bit soapy. Finish burning, modest alcoholic. Too unbalanced!

Parket (544) - Bruges, BELGIUM - JUN 27, 2011
bottle, yellow/white coloured with nice white head. Smell: orange, yeasty. Taste: same like you’d expect after smelling it. Some alcohol notes and some grainy notes. Nice one but not a ’super’ beer.

Benzai (2704) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - JUN 27, 2011
Not the best color (plain yellow) and smell (kind of dull) but nice taste and very good carbonation.

DutchDrebus (1404) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - JUN 22, 2011
Tasted this one a few times. Scored not to high. Mouthfeel is very nice. Smell and taste are a bit dull. The new logo looks like a gay version of Chuck Norris (no offense to gay people and/or Chuck Norris).

Koelschtrinker (7039) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 21, 2011
Süßlich-würziger Antrunk. Etwas würziger werdend, gleichzeitig deutlich malziger. Der Alkohol ist hier etwas stechend aber noch erträglich. Die Intensität legt zum Abgang erneut leicht zu, besonders die Malzigkeit breitet sich aus. Daneben leicht nach vergorenen Früchten. Test vom 10.8.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,11,11,12,7,11 - 10,95

jkwood04 (1402) - Connecticut, USA - JUN 1, 2011
11.2oz bottle in a Trappist glass. Pours really cloudy orangeish/golden with a lacy, white head. Aroma of Belgian spicy yeast, light caramel malts, and some floral hops. This beer’s flavor is strong of the alcohol on the finish. Average texture. A classic Belgian ale.

Kristall-König (1638) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - MAY 28, 2011
Der Brigand besitzt viel co2 und eine gute Farbe. Die Nase nimmt Hefefruchtiges wahr (Himbeere?), auch Getreidenoten spielen mit ein. Der Geschmack weist eine etwas medizinische, käuterartige Note auf, die sehr intensiv rüberkommt. Im Hintergrund fuchteln ein paar Bitterstoffe herum. Im Abgang alkoholisch prickelnd. Der Geschmack ist ja schon ewtas eigen, fast stechend, aber irgendwie hat dieses Bier auch etwas Anziehendes. Sehr eigenartig.Test vom 20.2.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche

MrHangover (465) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - MAY 23, 2011
Pours out of the bottle being murky yellow and forming a small head that lasts a few minutes. Aroma has malt and alcohol and a small hint of fruit. A really big lot of carbonation in this one, what can be found in the flavours. Taste is quite bitter, with a slight sweet aftertaste. A bit tingly on the tongue because of the carbonoxide. Decent beer, one to try once or twice and maybe pickup again after some time.

lord_totenkopf (191) - Budapest, HUNGARY - APR 26, 2011
Yellow coloured liquid with massive white head. Aroma is rich in fruits and some bread. Taste is sweet, alcoholic with harmonizing hoppiness which lasts in the aftertaste too.

Aranysárgás szín, kitüremkedő hófehér hab. Illata nagyon muskotályos, gyümölcsös, többek között alma, szőlő, valamint igen élesztős. Ízének van egy pezsgős jellege, mint egy jóféle száraz pezsgő, csak annál jóval gyümölcsösebb összetettebb ízvilággal, kissé fűszeres, továbbá itt is érződik az élesztő. Nagyon élénken szénsavas, közepesen testes, száraz, az alkoholtartalma is eléggé rejtve van. Jó kis belga, de nem estem hasra tőle.
