Pretty old sample Fully clear copper beer with small, just off-white head; end of bottles one heap of U.F.O.’s. Nutty, sweet, like a sweetened sherry fantasy; cherrypie. Quite sweet taste, nutty flavours, a bit fruity and flat as a pancake. Suffers from age. Ends sherry-like and sweet at the same time, fading away quicky. Medium bodied, alcoholwarming, but very flat. Well - Huyghe wasn’t meant to age - even then.

hazy, pale golden ale with an incredibly dense and frothy head. Fresh, slightly fruity nose some coriander. Also coriander in the flavour combined with yeast and sweet malt.

I had this one in Kulminator, antwerp, a very old bottle, from 1987. Blond amber coloured, still a lot of carbonation, small white head. Sweet very fruity (ripe fruits) aroma, some very light madeirisation. Smouth palate, light sprankling. Finish is a little bit more wattery and flat. Some fruity taste, with a short sour-appel touch. Misses some character near the end, but what can you expect form a beer that is almost 20 years old.

(Bottle 25 cl) Beautiful, hazy, pale golden ale with an incredibly dense and frothy head. Fresh, slightly fruity nose - I detect some coriander. Also coriander in the flavour combined with yeast and sweet malt. Pronounced dryness rather than bitterness. A lovely beer. 270499
