Bottle @ AA-Meeting, Western Denmark 2012. Pours ruby amber with a large fluffy head. Nose is yeast (saison), flowers, brett and peppers. Dark fruit and phenols. Medium bodied. Dry short end.

75cl Bottle. Hazy brown coloured beer with some yeast parts and almost no carbonation. Short off white head. Light herby and caramel malty hinted aroma. Full palate. Finish is bitter malty with hints of fruits and caramel malts. Not bad.

Lightbrown coloured beer with small white head and lots of carbonation. Lots of floks of yeast visible. Fresh forest fruity aroma with some malty hints. Full sparkling palate. Finish is malty fruity ending rather dry.

Onctuous creamlike, cream-colooured head, over ruby tinted foxy-brown beer. Caramel, toffee, toasted malts and sweet alcohol; faint cigarette smoke in the background. Peas, toasted and roasted malts, scorched sugar (Maillard?), sweat. Ends drier and spicier than expected. Richly bodied, very slick, alcoholwarming. Not bad, not overly special... don’t know, but I get a certain homebrew feeling.

75cl, new exclusive brewery Anno 2010, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex brew, not too heavy, yet balanced, cloudy, rocky head, nice brew
