Countbeer (2853) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - JAN 15, 2013
Bottle: Thanks Secret Sinta/Maarten: Label says 6.2% alcohol. Pour is almost clear piss yellow. In the glass it cultivates into a hazy yellow colored beer with a medium airy, lively and quickly diminishing off white head. The aroma reminds me of skunky beers: there’s that skunky hop, pils malts and hints of gass, manure, grains, cardboard, honey and something dusty soap-a-like. The flavours are quite basic, again with the malts (pilsmalts?) it makes you believe it is a pilsner with a light sour touch. There’s thus malts, bread, floral tones, bitters, hint of hops, honey and warmth... Strange mix, not per se unbalanced or bad because it drinks away pretty easy, but it is just a bit out of tune. The aftertaste is mainly malts with floral tones. Low to medium carbonation, soft mouthfeel with a spicy edge, medium and bit thin body and a light creamy texture. Simple, low to medium in most things and bit thin. With all the respect but it’s not exciting. Though I think with the sour touch this might be a nice beer in the summer...

MaartenRF10 (1177) - Wageningen, NETHERLANDS - OCT 13, 2012
Hazy orange with decent white head. Aroma is a lot of heather honey. Taste also a lot of honey. Bit one-sided, but the honey is nice and warming in this rainy autumn afternoon.
