3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bouteille 33cl.
Dorée avec une teinte allant sur l’ambrée, mousse blanche.
Arôme à une épice intéressante mais que je ne parviens pas à identifier. Le tout est accompagné d’une subtile saveur d’agrumes/fruité finement houblonnée.
En bouche, note fleuri, levure donnant un aspect de moisissure, fini fine amertume épicée mais aussi une présence de pamplemousse donnant une légère acidité. Profile malt est subtile avec usage possible de sucre brun.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
33 cL bottle at Delerium. Pours hazy orange with a small, creamy, lacing and white head. Aroma is fruity, spiced, light acidic and malty. Sweet and spiced flavoured, much like gluhkrieks. Sweet malty and distinct fruity - slight spiced note. Lingering fruity and yeasty flavoured finish. Nice complex yeast profile with a spiced and mixed fruity base. Nice one.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Very well-carbonated beer, completely cloudy, peach-coloured under an off-white discreet head, vanishing. Sourish, lactic nose, with some decaying malts, a sourish-wry fruitaroma. Very, wild cherries, chamomille, dry cookies and restsugars. Jumble of flavours, not unlike some Regenboog beers, and I cannot help suspecting a minor kind of infection. Light bodied, probably partly due to the acids, and generally very carbonated. Weird, weird. It’s certainly drinkable, but I wonder in a couple of months. AND - are there REALLY no cherries, here?
