Golden color. Strange aroma (flowers and fruits). Sweetish flavor, flowers. Uninteresting, odd.

Golden with white head. Yeast and hints of alcohol in the good way. Nice sweet spicy with a lasting bitter sweet aftertaste

Bottled. Golden coloured. Yeast and apples in the aroma. Sweet and yeasty flavour. Quite bland.

An orange beer with a collapsing white head. The aroma is strange with notes of oranges, alcohol, dust, as well as metal. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of alcohol and a smooth mouthfeel. The flavor is a lot better than the aroma promises.

Pours Golden with a white head. Aroma is fruity sweet, with some spice and yeast. Taste is spicy sweet, with notes of appels. Mouthfeel is rather thin and watery

Deep golden colour with a small off white head. Malty sweet aroma with hints of apple and yeast. Sweet yeasty flavor with hints of fruit.

Mild malt, yeast and a hint of citrus in the aroma, golden amber, pours a huge white head and has some lace. Strong malt and alcohol flavour, softens to a pleasant malty after taste, with a trace of grapefruit. Medium bodied, some tongue tingle. Average.

Flat Belgian style blond with a strong alcohol nose. The flavour is quite watery and sttong. Quite a poor Belgian ale.

Light gold with a large head that disappears quickly. The aroma are mellow peat and caramel. Too much carbonation at first. This has a peat-like malt body similar to a very watered down whisky.
