4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Remarkably extracted honeyed malt flavours. Pour is medium amber, murky and topped bu a massive white foam. Fresh citrusy hops blend into nectar while grassy and brown sugar notes are unveiled and developed in the second half of the palate. A very successful brew. Delicious sweetish, yet balanced palate. Different than what the English are doing, but better than most.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
330ml bottle from Bierkompass
Pours dark murky orange with a small foamy head. Aroma of apricose, malts, fruits, wood and lemon. Taste is slightly malty with notes of wood, fruits and hints of apricose. Finish is malty with wooden and fruity notes. Nice, quite tasty for such a low ABV.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Hazy copper with a massive white head. Floral and fruit aroma. Taste is pale malt balanced with some citrus hops. Good for a bitter.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle (33cl). Huge offwhite head, settles as a thick, uneven layer with some sticky lacing. Hazy amber colour. Rich aroma of hops, Belgian yeast, caramel, biscuits, resin, fermented fruit. Lively, yet soft carbonation. Medium/light body. Taste is fruity with some sweetness initially, then a robust bitterness takes over, leading to a dry and bitter finish. Feels well-balanced overall.

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Cask conditioned bottled beer? I don’t think so. 12 oz bottle pours a hazy, deep yellow with a very frothy, active white head. Just looking at it, you can tell there’s an unnatural amount of carbonation. This has to be infected. Yep, it smells infected: coriander, grass, lemon rind, vegetal. Flavor is... you guess it, infected, lemon rind, white peppercorns, green bell peppers, dried hops. Medium bodied, gross, grass finish. Super infected. Gotta love these $6 drain pours.
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
3rd August 2009
Bottle. Cloudy brown beer. Palate is as flat as a pancake, zero carbonation. Soft cocoa chocolate with a very very small hop presence at the finish. Think this one is not right. Need to try another.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pale gold with a huge white head, high bead. Aroma is floral and biscuity with oranges, apricots and wood. Highly carbonated mouthfeel - another de Molen beer that’s not made it here how its supposed to. A swirl after 5 minutes produces 3 inches of foam. Eventually it’s drinkable and it’s fine underneath. Light bodied with cleanish biscuit, oranges and a dry, slightly woody finish. Obviously a better beer than it showed here.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
330ml bottle. Cloudy copper colour with small white head. Fruity aroma, apricot, peach, mango. Taste is a bit metallic, in fading away a bitter hop note and a shadow of the fruit aroma pass by.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
20 apr 2012, bottle. Yellow, faintly cloudy, frothy white head. Nose is lemon rind Saison; earthy, slightly peppery, lemon Italian soda. Thin, almost flat, foams up in the mouth. Tastes of cut lumber and lemon cream pie. Nice. Soft and subtle.
