Jan 12, 2008 [950-20071211] 330mL. Leafy grass booze hops aroma with muted toasted malt. Clear, dark orange body with a long-lasting creamy off-white head. Sweet malt boozy cookie dough yeast flavour. Medium-full body is thick. Alcohol perks up a lot, otherwise quite nice.

Jan 9, 2008 Bottled. Clear golden pour with microbubble head and little lace. A good amount of sedimentation as well. Plenty of carbonation that results in a slightly stingy palate. Aroma of green apple, orange citrus, pear, and coriander with ginger spice. Flavors lean towards orange peel, fruity esters and hops. Finishes with a strong warming alcohol statement with yeast. Very nice numbing mouthfeel.

Jan 8, 2008 Bottle at Paters Vaetje, Antwerpen. Dirty golden with a huge offwhite head. Complex perfumey hop nose with hints of grass. Sweet flavours which is immediately offset by good bitterness. Perfume, flowers and some grass on a sweet base. Solid alcohol. Fizzy. Very good.

Jan 6, 2008 Frothy head took a while to pour in a pint glass. Sweet with some hops. Absolutely no hint of 10% alcohol. Just so nice and drinkable this beer is dangerous.
