Brouwkot Manten

Bottle at ’t Rusteel, Gullegem, Belgium
Clear, blond body. Ok lace. Aroma of hops, oranges, flowers, quite ok. Moderately sweet, lightly bitter flavour. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet finish. Hints of caramel.

Gushing to huge, yellowish whipped-eggwhite head, slightly irregular, over fully hazy orange beer, UFO-laden. White candi sugar (..), alcohol, faintly citric & spicy yeastesters. Sharp vegetable-spicy-yeasty taste. Sample tastes quite young actually, which is strange seen the bottling date has had 1 yr. already. Still, balance is OK, some restsugars, especially warming up; slightly smoked flavour. Sharp, burning MF; titillating & well-carbonated; medium bodied at best. Not half bad, but once the sharp taste & MF settled in, not really distinctive.

Bottle, 75 cl. first tima @ Kortrijk 24.11.07 Week v/d Smaak. RE-taste @ home (bought Pauwels, Heule) Hazy dark golden color, with a large white head. Aroma bit spice, fruits, malts. Medium body. Taste little sweet, some spices, fruits, hops, bitterness. It’s like this beer has more than just 6 % alc. Good.

Bottle. 75cl. Unclear medium yellow color with a average, frothy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, moderate yeasty. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a average to long duration. ( Crisp and fruity ). Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (280208)

Bottled @ One Pint Pub, Helsinki, Belgian Week 2008. Very soapy aroma! Flowers, camomille. Taste very bubbly, huge white head. Taste soap as well, but not horrible.
