Tap at Chr. firtal, Odense: Golden yellow with fine white head. Fruity notes - orange/citrus. Spices & yeast. Fresh and enjoyable taste. Light bitter dry finish which is nice!!

Hazy pale gold with a thick white head. Sweet aroma of honey. Sweet honey and marzipan flavours.

Hazy, pale yellow with giant soapy head. Aroma has some lemony citrus. Also some maltiness and cardboard. There’s a nice fresh element to this beer at first but the background taste is of dusty soil and cardboard.

June 2011: Tall necked flip-top 33cl bottle, unable to find any best before date. Poured into a Duvel glass: when I say poured, I really mean gushed into the glass because as soon as I flipped the top it rose like an active volcano all over the table before I could get the glass to it. The beer was therefore murky and dirty in appearance, a grubby, dull old gold colour. The head was huge, large bubbles of pure white sat above the dishwater looking body of beer. Really yeasty aroma, almost as strong as when leaning over a fermentation tank during the yeast rising (to a cauliflower head) period. Spicey hops too. The beer began to settle a bit and it became more of a grapefruit juice colour and thickness. Darker towards the bottom of the glass, as the sediment slowly sank. The taste was semi-sweet and sour, with lemon, pink grapefruit, coriander and pepper all coming and going within the tasting. The beer was medium bodied once the sediment fully settled and quiet pleasant, just took so long before I could write this about the beer.

[330ml swingtop, Cornelius Beer&Wine, Edinburgh] Little bit of a gusher once the swingtop popped. Despite that, only slight haze on the golden beer, voluminous white head. Sweet aroma of white grapes, honey and unfortunately a little vomit. Rich and very sweet mouthfeel, marizpan from start to finish, alcohol burn on the edges, more frangipane on the finish. Really different to the aroma - you can certainly tell it’s an 8%er [09042012]

.33l bottle from Kuca Piva in Zagreb. Slight hazy yellow, extremely pale, with medium head. Yeast and grapes on nose, some sour alcohol, very juicy. Medium body, sour grape and a little alc richness. Coating but slightly medicinal. simply alright

This Belgium Blonde pours cloudy golden brown with a large head. It has a hoppy smell for a blonde and has a sharp taste on the tongue with a light body and a long finish.

Transfering data from personal beer file. I drank this beer a long time ago. I’ll update this rating if I have the chance to drink it again.

Bottle from Coppers in Newcastle. Hazy golden in colour with a sweet fruity flavour, malty and toffee notes and a warming slight tart finsh. Too much alcohol in the finish.

tasting on 1/19/12. dirty brown pour with an off white head. very sweet nose with dark fruits and sugar. med body with candi sugar, raisin, light bread, honey and some odd flavors. some very light tart notes seep through. sweet finish. this is kind of a mess.
