Bottle @ home. Pretty lively carbonation and a quite light yellow appearance. Quite sweet, light malty, medium hoppy aroma. Light malty, pretty sweet, slightly citrusy, moderately hoppy flavor.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Gewürziger und hopfiger Antrunk mit angenehmen, teilweise aber zu übertriebenen Kräuternoten. Milder werdend, die Hopfigkeit weicht einem herben bis bitteren Ton, welche eine getreidige Nuance aufweist. /8/7/8//9
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sampled at an ESBLS tasting. A cloudy pour with a white creamy head. This beer is quite sour with unripen fruit tartness and bitterness. Grass, grain, fruit flavors. Too tart and bitter for my tastes but still interesting.
2.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 10/20
grapefruity aroma with some hints of spice , very carbonated taste is slightly grapefruity and spicy, but honestly tastes like a watered down saison
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle (batch 753). Gusher (even at extremely cold temperature). Pours with a massive white head over a murky yellow body with very violent carbonation. Head is somewhat rocky. Aromas are hoppy, spicy, pine/sawdust, herbal, grassy and grainy, bready, light esters. Hop forward. Flavors are earthy, spicy and bitter in the finish. Extremely grassy. Slightly husky. Bitter, light tobacco.
Distractingly high amount of carbonation.

Citrus/lemon in the flavor, medium in body. This is the first De Molen brew I’ve had, interested to see what some of the others taste like.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
11.2oz bottle poured into my De Struise glass... An ugly murky dark gold, hints of copper, so blah. A big light tope head, good retention and lacing. This head doesn’t make up for the body... Some could consider this a weak aroma but I like its subtlety. Very light caramel and toffee notes, just sweet enough to raise an eyebrow. After that loses some points for being a bit plain and going to the next flavor level. I can’t detect any hops, or anything else but a whisper of alcohol... WTF is going in the taste, has this gone bad. Biscuit bread at first, then yeast, funk, and smoke. Like a smoked lager but not executed correctly.
Something has to be wrong with this.
