At an mitra in Purmerend, bottle 330ml, golden, smal head, nice grassy, much hopbitter but lots of flowers, lots of citrus hinds, like the best pilsener! very nice!.

Poured from a green lonf neck bottle of 330 ml. Golden yellow colour with lots of bubbles in, and just a slighty hazy. Two finger head with very good retention, no lacing though. Soft and very discrit aroma of malts. Nice, clear taste, only a bit bitter. Medium thin on the body, quite carbonated. I found this one at the place I work, I didn’t even know we were selling it. I bought it an afternoon before I leave work just to try it, and I was a bit afraid that it would suck big time because of the label stating that is organic (most of the biological/organic products are either tasteless or taste really bad but "that’s how it’s supposed to taste"). Thankfully it didn’t suck, on the contrary it was quite good.

Very good, dense, light-yellowish head over metallic golden beer with a faint verdigris sheen. Dry malt nose, with Petit Beurre aroma, and feinherb, as the Germans would say. More dry grainy malt, but with a clear hopimprint. Ends honeyish-straw-grainy. Spritzy at first, visually busily-bubbled, but the carbonation is soon exhausted, turning the beer a bit lame. More than decent Pilsner. And organic to boot - not bad! Beer is actually named "De Leckere Premium Organic Beer

Bottled. A pale golden beer with a thick yellowish head. The aroma has notes of straw and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and fruit, leading to a dry finish.

30 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is grassy and malty. Mild bitter and acidic flavoured. Cornish and bitter. Bone dry finish.

Bottle from local supermarket. Clear golden colour, white head. Nose is caramel malts, bit grainy, hint of citrus. Flavour is caramel malts, grainy, citric. Slightly bitter. Clean and dry finish. Ok stuff.

Bottle at yespr. Clear yellow coloured with a medium sized white head. Malty aroma of hay, caramel and hops. Malty flavour of hay, caramel and hops. Hoppy finish.

On tap at In de Wildeman. Slightly hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of malts, light hops and some nutmeg. Flavour is light sweet, malty, a bit spicy and bitter. Finishes dry and light bitter. Actually not too bad for a Leckere beer.

Bottle, 5.0%. Aroma of fresh bread and fruity hops. Clear dark yellow colour. OK small white head. The flavour starts off yeasty and then turns fruity. Seems like fruity hops, not fruity yeast. Finishes quite clean and rather refreshing. Slightly thin mouthfeel.

Green bottle. Pale blonde. Soft grassy aroma. Grassy hopbitter flavor. Medium bodied. Bitterness lingering on in the longish aftertaste. Not bad.
