3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 FLnative80 (174) - Orlando, Florida, USA - APR 19, 2008
Bottle. 11.2 fl. oz. Pours a clear, light brown color that resembles tea. Has a thin, off white head that disappears quickly. Sweet aroma of caramel, spice, and raisins. Light bodied with a fairly thin texture and a dry finish. Flavor is very similar to the aroma. Pretty sweet all the way through with some light bitterness showing through near the end and through to the aftertaste.

not a bad belgian ale. On tap at brug beertje, ordered it for the wifey on account of it’s smooth unoffensive qualities.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 JRHBrew (264) - Fredericton, New Brunswick, CANADA - APR 11, 2008
Bottle pours a beautiful amber colour with a small disappearing head. The aroma is sweet, almost fruity and somewhat spicy with a hint of alcohol despite it only being 5%. Very well balanced almost crisp like a pils. Puts me in mind of something like orval meets something like rickards red with a hint of something all its own. Unique brew though not amazing.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 lagomswedish (213) - Umeå, SWEDEN - APR 11, 2008
Bottle from Systembolaget. I don’t warm to this beer at all. It’s bright, amber and flat. Vaguely yeasty, vaguely cheesy, and vaguely berry-like. Taste is vaguely like far better Belgium ales, and feels artificial, dusty, dirty and a little metallic.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 mybestfriend (263) - Gothenburg, SWEDEN - APR 9, 2008
Bottle. Pours an amber colourn with a with head. Aroma is some yeast and earthy dirt together with a good amount of (old) tart fruit and some wet fag ends. Flavour is a bit perfumy/yeasty with notes of tart fruits - that lingers on until the finish which have a small amount of bitterness to offer together with some wet fag ends (just like the aroma). A light-weight Belgien that doesn’t seem to want all that much.
Godkänd belgare i den lättare viktklassen som inte verkar vilja så mycket.

2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Defreni (1779) - Husum, DENMARK - APR 5, 2008
Flaske. Ravfarvet øl med et lille skum. Ikke den store duft, og smagen er mest præget af malt med en smule frugt. Ret kedelig øl.
