Taste first time aug. ’08 @ home with Paul, Leen... from bottle 75 cl. bought @ brewery. Re-tasted 11.04.09. Hazy amber color, with a off-white head. Aroma spice, malts, some yeast. Medium body. Taste full malmts, yeast, little caramel, bitterness.

Light gushing to fluffy whipped eggwhite-like head; fully hazy orange beer with mossy sheen. Dried apples, garden herbs, alternative vegetarian spice mix. Solvent, plywood, herbs, mild-sweet but with a dry bitterish-spicy sourrrounding. Bit dull, dough-like, and slighly oxydized malts getting more obvious warming up. Medium bodied at best, bit burning MF. Aftertaste, after some time, like old mushrooms. Well... Seesm bottle has suffered somehow - or is it the beer?

75cl, exclusive brewery, new brew Anno 2008, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex brew, not balanced, cloudy, small head, simpel brew
