Bottled 330ml. -Hazy orange coloured, medium sized white head, weak malty nose. Malty, slight hoppy and flowery with grassy notes in the finish. Strong bitterness. So far the only De Molen beer that has disappointed me. Never mind, I forgive them.

Bott 74cl @ brasserie420 Gushing bottle, foamy, pale orange. Yeast aromas, that leave place to some fruitiness Nice caramel and hop blended flavor, some fruit but you could taste the yeast. Nicely bodied.

Murky yellow color, no head. Slightly bitter hoppy citrus aroma. Very bitter hoppy taste of oranges. Well balanced beer with a tiny bit sharp alcohol taste.

Bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado, who brought it from Amsterdam (thanks!)
Poured a hazy orange-golden body with a small white head that went away relatively fast. Slightly dry sweet malty nose. Dusty, yeasty, slightly flowery malty taste, very light hop bitterness near the end. Some beets/carrots in the mix and I don’t like those in my lager. Light notes of soap. Eeeh, far from a true Bohemian Pilsner in my opinion and not that great a beer too. Or just not my type of pale lager (so I’m rating it slightly higher than I normally would). De Molen can do much, much better.

Thanks to Henrik for this one. Dark yellow and hazy, has a white head. Hoppy aroma, notes of sweet fruit too. Light bread. Flavor starts moderate sweet, and finish heavy bitter. Dry texture.

Bottled. Golden coloured. Uncler. Dense off white head. Aroma of spice, herbs, fruits and grass. Flavour of bread, grass, grains, light spice and herbs. Medium to full bodied. Dry. Is quite bitter in the end, but not very subtle.

bottle from berts bierhuis utrecht. Pours a dark golden beer with a good, creamy head. the creamy head tastes really good. This is my first Molen beer. a Bohemian Pilsener is not really special but I enjoyed this one. Taste was good. Want to try more Molen beers!
