25cl bottle. clear amber, small white head. slightly fruity or fllowery faint hoppy fresh beer aroma. a bit unusual, but nice. flavor is faint caramel, malts, mildly hopped, a bit flowery. refreshing and tasty yet mild.

Reddish colour. Creamy thin head. Starts out nutty, but soon very watery. Some alcohol flavour. Lightly sweet.

Amber colored with nice off-white creamy foam head, lasting and lacing to glass and lip the way I like it. Nice sweet bitter taste, goes well with french fries and clamps. (Antwerp 201201)

Light-amber colored. Has a light fruity, caramel aroma. Hints of fruit in the flavor, very short after taste. Nothing special

33cl bottle, best before 10th Feb 2007 or 2009? Anyway drank in March 2007. I don’t own the correct bolleke glass, so it was poured into my Forbidden Fruit chalice. It looked very impressive, a clear mahogany brown’red, no head to talk of, which is a shame, cos I like head. This beer doesn’t seem to have much aroma, be it on tap, or as in this tasting, in the bottle. Hops and not a lot of that either, is all I could find. Malty taste, but not too sweet or powerful, a complexed mix of flavours come together and produce a very good beer. It has a body to it, but not overly strong. A very drinkable beer, pity about the aroma and head, otherwise we would be looking at a higher score and a true classic beer.

Tap. Amber pour, malty aroma, caramel and some fruit. Light fruit taste, medium body. Nothing special.

Boght on tap in Madrid at Cafekee Golden dark beer with nice foam Medium body and complexity Enjoyable

Bière ambrée à 5% alc., couleur orangée. Une bonne mousse qui disparaît rapidement. près quelques minutes, la bière est flat. Goût de fruit acre en final. Plutôt décevante, ou je souconne une dégradation sur tablette.

On tap. Pours amber with a medium off white head. The aroma is malt, caramel, light fruit and yeast. The flavour is malty with notes of dried fruit and yeast.

Faint aroma of sweet malts and fruit. Tastes about the same, neither bitter nor particularly sweet. Deep copper with moderate activity and lace. Very average Belgian beer.

Pours an amber colour with a beige head. Aroma is fruit, caramel and malt. Taste is also lightly fruity with some caramel leading to a moderate bitter finish. Medium bodied. Not bad.
