3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: MAR 20, 2009 33 cL bottle. Pours almost clear yellow with a huge white head. Strange spiced and butterish aroma - terrible. Favour is dry and mild caramel yet also quite chemical. Ends strange faul fruity too. Rerate needed.1-3-2-2-3=1.1
Sweet malty and yeasty aroma. Sweet malty and yeasty flavoured with a dry phenolic note. Light spiced finish.6-3-6-3-13=3.1
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
UPDATED: JUN 12, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Strong, pale ale with a pronounced yeast sediment in the bottle. Unfiltered with a decent, creamy head. Marc Beirens, the brewmaster, claims that he makes his beers more bitter every year. I’ll recommend, that he stops this pursuit now. Loterbol is extremely hoppy. Goldings-hops are added two times and it’s even dry-hopped with Styrians. The hops almost paralyze the tastebuds, but without covering the underlying sweetness completely. Refermented in the bottle. 090804
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottled. Hazy nutbrownish yellow colour (strange mix of those) with huge off white creamy, longlasting head. Lacing beatifully. Aroma is flowers, fruits, yeast and some bready hints. Flavour is nutty, fruity, buttery, caramellish and alcoholic. Just a lovely mix, though the alcohol does mess the whole thing up a bit. But just lovely to drink, very easy-to-drink. Good session beer. And though the slight unbalance due to alcohol, just lovely! I need more of this!
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Reddish golden with rich head. Fruity caramel aroma.. Sweet and clean. The immensly bitter grassy flavour strikes immediately and lasts into a finish, which has some toffee to balance a bitterness that easily surpasses De Ranke XX-Bitter, at least as far as I can remember. Very much a different beer than the draught "regular" Loterbol.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
33cl bottle @ DHVL. Pours clear golden with a fluffy white foam. Nose and taste is very fresh of yeast, fruity orange, hay and hops. Very nice.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Cloudy blond color; fine perlage; big creamy head. Very strange aroma, perfumy, soapy, mushrooms, coriander. Quite good dry and spicy malt taste, soft, with a very good Belgian hopping, leading to a dry and bitter final, with a touch of spices and cellar. Very good and some originality.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle, 8%. Citric and bready aroma. Cloudy yellow colour. The flavour is bready, but not too bad, citric and vinous. Rough bitterness, also lemony. All in all actually not too bad.
