duff (5407), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Oct 27, 2005 Bottle. Blonde/orange. Fizzy detergenty mouthfeel destracts from the rest of the beer. Lightly spicy and citric, a bit peppery. This is too carbonated though. bierkoning (4917), La Tropica, Netherlands Nov 22, 2004 Huge frothy head that lasts. Hops in the nose. Hoppy, even a bit oily flavor. Thin with hints of citrus. Very pleasant ale. jbrus (4178), Delft, Netherlands Feb 22, 2004 Fruity, apple, apricot, light hoppy aroma. Amber/orange color, large off-white head, good lace. Sweet, malty, fruity, peppery, light bitter finish, sparkling. Tasted to versions. One brewed in their own small brewery and one brewed by de Proefbrouwerij. The first one was much better, fruitier and fuller. Magic_dave6 (3975), London, Greater London, England Oct 17, 2005 No#29. Aroma is again like so many beers from this tasting, grassy hops, with maybe some saltiness. Taste is similar with a dry finish. HogTownHarry (3267), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Feb 21, 2007 Bottle (330ml). Shared with blankboy and tupalev. Murkyyellow, average head and massive floaties and protein swirls - swear to God it looks like like a matt of blue-green algae at the bottom of the glass. Papery and stale caramel malt, hint of yeast funk - really unbalanced - maybe a tad past it? Tastes yeasty and a bit medicinal - sulfury - but more fruit and malt, less staleness - it tasted nicely of apple crumble, although there was some dry bitterness in the finish. Very thick body, one person who saw it thought it looked like bubble tea - it felt like that in the mouth - bitter and fruity - decent, but old and a little boring despite that.
