Bottle@tasting (1998), 300ml. Head: some off-white foam. Colour: hazy, brass. Aroma: yeast, sweets. Taste: some bitter-sweet. Palate: small bitter-sweet finish. Overall: ok

Bottle: Small to medium sized white head, changes quick into a thing lacing/ring on top of a hazy orange colored beer. Aromas of peach, yeast, hops, roosvice, a light hint of glue and malts. Flavours of malts, fruit, yeast, herbs, light chalk, light hoos and citrus, creamy and a hint of wood. Aftertaste fruit, yeast, bitters, hops and plants. Low carbo, soft mouthfeel, medium body and a texture between watery and creamy.

330ml Bottle (Thanks Benzai) - Amber with a foamy head. Fruity and malty aroma with notes of dried fruit, caramel, nuts and some slightly smoky hints. Malty and moderately hoppy taste with notes of tea, toffee, peach and dried fruit. Nothing outstanding, but refreshing and easy to drink.

Bottle shared. Pours a cloudy golden brown with a tiny off white head. Aroma of malt, fruits and cinnamon. Flavour is medium sweet and light bitter. Light bodied with medium carbonation.

33cl bottle cortesy of kermis. Almost no head or carbonation. Hazy amber pour. Ok, nothin special.

Bottle @ home. Aroma is murky malt, some fruity notes. Flavour has some nice floral hops, light to medium bitterness, subtle (slight swampy) malt note. Better than expected.

2012 - 05 - 05 330ml bottle (yellow/green label). hazy orange golden colour. small white head. aroma more comlex than most other spring-bock’s , spicey, ftuity, barnyard. light bitter, light sweet taste.

Big light yellow head made of fine bubbles, over a misty copper-coloured body. Fruity aroma, with pear, strawberry and a cinnamon and candy like sweetness as well, on top of the sweaty yeast base. Pleasant light carbonation that supports the light sweet body well. Pretty rich taste, better than I expected from the nose. Very much a high fermentation character in this Dutch bock style beer, with raw qualities as often found in such small brewers, but also some character of its own. Nice brew. (33cl bottle)

Etwas alkoholischer und hefiger Antrunk und weiterer Verlauf, der das Bier auf Dauer langweilig da einfallslos erscheinen lässt. Sehr mild trocken zitronig-herb, was nicht so wirklich zusammen passt. Im Abgang sehr trocken, wie im Anfang ist die Hefigkeit mit dem Alkohol führend. Entäuschend laff. 10/8/8/8/9/8
