Bottle, 33 cl. Dark golden to amber color, very little white head. Aroma, yeasty, little sourness, malts. Taste bitter, and sweetness, little hops. Medium bodied. Good.

Flaske: Flot strågul øl med et fint skumhoved. Meget karboneret og ved anden hældning bliver øllen uklar. Dog ingen klumper hvilket er dejligt. Fin duft af gær og blomsterhumle. Smagen er klassisk lys belgisk med en godt skjult alkohol. Mærkeligt at denne øl ikke er en strong ale da 8% må være forudsætningen for det. Men fin fin øl.

Cloudy amber beer. Crisp semi dry palate. Tart malt with well balanced orange and lemon. A little spice and the malt turns creamy. Seltzer like effervescence in the finish. Refreshing.

33 cl. bottle @ Bier Central // 2010 (?) Vintage // (a) milky, amber brown peach with little too no head // (s) sweet musty peaches, yeast, sweet dough, lacto, yoghurt // (t) lacto / yoghurt infection / taste, peach, yeast, touch sweet, aged hops, touch bitter finish, plenty of dough, infected but nicely infected // (b) hazy, little carb.

Fully hazy orange with olive shine; whitish head, fast reduced to 1/2 cm rim. Herbal nose, very green smelling, aroma like "loden"-cloth (kind of heavy woolen felt). Sweet-syrupy taste, with a vegetable character, again young beer, finish is thick malty. Rather well-bodied, less carbonated than the other beers. Difficult beer to describe. I’m afraid the description does not do it right. It is quite interesting in a way how basic beer ought to be.

Blond coloured beer with lots of carbonation and a short white head. Strong herby aroma with a fruity yeasty malty and eldery hint. Full palate. Finish is full malty, light alcoholic and yeasty hinted. Not bad.

33 cL bottle, courtesy of fonefan. Pours slight cloudy and yellow to orange with a fully gone head. Spiced and estery aroma. Orange fruity to citric flavoured with a mild yeasty note. Mild melllow and fruity yeasty finish.

bottled, thanks to bu11zeye, cloudy yellow in color with a bright sweet tart flavor , finish is salty aspirin

A Mes rate. Bottle at the brewery. Slightly hazy dark yellow with a decent white head. Nice creamy yeast nose with some good spice and hints of spruce. Tarty lemon flavour with a reasonably high level of spice. Quite thick in the mouth. Maybe too much lemon for me. Not bad though.

Bottled. An unclear golden beer with some sediment floating around under a thin orangey head. The aroma has notes of malt and fruit. And the flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit.
