Weak doughy aroma. Clear amber. Small white head. Light bready and fruity taste. Somewhat harsh on the down. Tart mouthfeel. Puckering finish.

Rated this at august 31th 2008 as Us Heit Het Echte Speltbier, but I think this is the beer I meant. This is what I wrote On tap @ Arendsnest, not sure if this is the same beer. Sold as Us Heit Spelt, ABV 7%. Bit hazy blond beer, white head. Aroma of sweetness, malt, flowers and some medicine. Flavour is very sweet, a bit sour, wort. Didn’t like this at all.

On tap at ’t Arendsnest, stronger than the other spelt beers from this brewer. Hazy amber with a big, white head. Complex aroma, promising tart fruit. Sweet fruit flavours. Drinkable, but a bit on the sweet side.
