750 bottle. Pours turbid gold with nose of spicy yeasty malt, hopcitrus, florals. tastes peppery, floral, and yeasty, with a smooth but not complex palate. If I ever met a lady who liked this beer, I’d either marry her or pawn her off to my wingman, depending upon her intellect.

750ml bottle (One Pint Pub, Helsinki, Belgian Weeks 2009)
White raisin aroma, sharp, almost like a lambic in part, but also winey. Pine floor cleaner, and rubber. Taste is masses of rubber. Condom rubber, not black grommet rubber. Burps rubber. There’s more flavour with the yeast added, and thankfully less rubber, so do add plenty of yeast.

(Bottled, 0.75l) Very hazy yellow-golden with a medium, quite firm, lasting and lacy head. Quite original aroma of sweetish, pale malt, anise and licorice, spices, lemony hops. Spicy and licoricey flavor with sweet, bready maltiness, orangey fruitiness, and flowery-lemony-aromatic hops. Medium body, soft carbonation, reasonably refreshing despite the sweetness. A quite original mix of spices, hops, and malt. Too sweet to be fully enjoyable, but probably good "for the ladies".

Bottle from ’t Rusteel. Hazy golden with a medium white head. Potent coriander nose. Sweet, rich taste with some licorice blending with coriander and pepper. Overspiced for sure, but with some unique qualities, nevertheless.

A clear yellow/oranje colored beer, with a white head. The aroma of hop bitters, with malts, fruits and flowers. The taste is hop bitter too. It is a bit spicey, coriander and cardamon. The aftertaste is spicey as well, peppery and a little burny.

UPDATED: MAY 22, 2012 Paper wrapped bottle. pale blonde, pours a huge head. Tangerine and flowers in the aroma. Fruity (tangerine, pineapple) flavor, somewhat perfumed with flowery hops. Alcoholic. Some earthy notes coming up in the aftertaste. Not unfriendly, but the taste is not perfect. re-rated in may 2012. Gusher from hell. Herbal aroma, also spices in the flavor. Lots of citrus.

Yellow-gold beer with a small white head. Fruity aroma, mainly oranges, but also yeast and malt. Tastes fruity as well but dominated by the yeast and sweet malts.
