Draft at Churchkey. Staff tried to talk me out of this one, and I should have listened. Clear yellow, white head, good lacing. Aroma of white pepper and malt. Taste is light, bitter and lager-like.

75 cl bottle, shared with friends on our probably last taste on the bridge in kristus koning, bruges. Yellow coloured beer with decent white head. Smell: yeasty. taste: citrus, yeasty, a bit bitter, mild sweetness. Some Van Steenberge-styled beer. Decent but not so special.

Bottle... It pours hazy dark golden with a small white head.... the aroma is fruits, yeast and some spices... The flavor is licorice, coriander, alcohol, sweet... medium body....

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.

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.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a white head. Spice nose with a little citrus. Medium body, sweet citrusy fruits and quite distinct licorice - what an unusual combination! A little herbal and vaguely yeasty with a whiff of phenols. Very subdued bitterness. 240610

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.

75cl bottle. Medium off-white head atop clear straw body. Aroma is medium sweet, cantaloupe, orange, some Belgian yeast, straw. Taste is moderately sweet, orange/cantaloupe, light straw. Medium body.
