( 330ml bottle, BB 30/10/09 ) Pours a clear golden body with a medium fizzy off-white head (fair head retention). Aroma of grass, oregano, mustiness, and other herbs. Flavor of toasted grain, grass, yeast, light citrus, and oddly some cola qualities.

Pours a medium golden yellowish color. Aromas of fruit, yeast and some pepper. Flavors are sour, yeasty, and a touch of sweetness at the finish.

Blond coloured beer with some light carbonation and a small white head. Vanilla hoppy aroma with some grassy hints. Full sprankling palate. Finish is light herby with a short hoppy hint. Not bad.

Bottle 330ml. @ home.

Clear blond coloured beer with very few aroma. Hopped rather herby aroma. Full sparkling and creamy palate. Finish is herby. Poor.

bottle, golden colour with great but unstable white head. Smell: caramel. Taste: caramel, yeasty, fruity, honey. Decent one.

Gold with a large off-white head. Aroma is of honey, fruit, grain and yeast. Taste is of grain and honey.

Huge, just off-white head over big-bubbled deep old-golden, clear beer. Pale malts, lots of white candi sugar, sweet; Van Steenberge yeast thumbprint all-over, touch of citrus. Slightly drier flavour, but still sweet, highly attenuated, no doubt thanks to the sugar, bit of human sweat. Sweet citrus, dull-ish. Very neutral to sweet palate, near bereft of flavours; creamy texture. Hailing from the Van Steenberge magical works, this MUST be a totally original beer, foi des employées!

33cl, exclusive brew, from De Bierloods Adegem, not complex brew, balanced, hazy, good head, nice brew
