2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottled 330ml (Beer Planet, BB 06/2009)
Dark amber color, small white head. Aroma has toffee, dried dark fruits and balsamico. Medium-bodied. Flavor is similar to aroma: tart Oud Bruinish flavor with dark fruits, balsamico and malts. Also tasting like "Pommac" lemonade somehow. Palate is quite watery (no suprise, only 4.8 %). I wonder if fresh bottles are tart.

25cl bottle @ home, shared with Dutchdrebus. Hazy orange color, small white lacing. Smell maltsa dn something weird and foul. Taste is the same: dry, sour hints, something weird and not nice. Low carbo and body.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Hazy yellow to orange colour with a quickly dissapearing head. Smells like sweaty feet, chinese food and other weird stuff. Tastes iron, sourish, bad, dry, rusty.. Not a good beer in my book.

(25cl bottle) Pours a hazy golden orange body with a small off-white head. Aroma of caramel, leather, musty old books, and light butterscotch. Flavor of herbs, yeast, florals, and citrus with mild bitterness in the finish.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Light copper colour, transparent, no carbonation and a very thin head.
Mouty peppery smell. Hints of fruits, bit rotten with hints of sugarcane and sour wood.
Unexpectedly bitter with a watery warmth. Light moutiness. Not much in the finish but a nice beer nonetheless.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle 25 cl. Courtesy of Pinball. Pours a cloudy golden with an off-white head. Sweet fruitiness in the nose, but the yeast prevails. Fairly light body, the yeastiness is the dominating feature of this beer. Subdued bitterness. A plain old school Belgian Ale. 030711
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
25cl bottle from Brussels (as "Tonneke Speciale Belge," Brouwereji Contreras, and listed as 5% abv). A careful pour gets you a slightly cloudy orange-amber with a fluffy, antique-white cloud cap. Bready, fruity notes in the nose, slightly pie-like. More doughy malt and fruit with some tart, gingery spice in the mouth. Further tastes get you light pumpkin pie; overall, very moderate sweetness. Finishes lightly acidic, not quite "sour," with something akin to tannins. Good, even very good.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bought at Drankenhandel Geers. Pours a clear copper colour, a strong nose slightly sharp and definitely spicy.
Surprisingly strong for a beer of only 4.8 ABV. A good deal of hops and according bitterness (without being overpowering) with a slight almost fruity sour touch. Short finish. I remember having had a very similar beer before. Still it’s got a distinct taste, especially for a beer of such low ABV.
Good at 5°C/40°F during Summer or 7°C/45°F in colder weather.
