Amber, crystal-clear. White firm head. Nose of hopflowers, malty and a fine arome reminiscent of wet hay. Taste quite malty again, with flavours of cheesrind, and bitter surrounding. Medium-bodied. Quite OK, better as expected, as this beer is diacetylprone.

Iron taste. Aroma of malt. Reddish appearance with a big creamy head. Taste of caramel. Very one note but easy drinking.

Expiry date 2 dec 2011
Clear dark amber, white head that fades fast but leaves a small layer of foam. Nice aroma of dark overripe fruits. Taste is overripe black fruit (some sour fruit as well), caramel malts. Bit low on body, nice carbo. Decent beer.

Bottle from Coppers in Newcastle. Dark amber in colour with a strong candy sugar flavour, notes of toffee apple and a slight sour malty finish.

earthy, basement aromas, rotten eggs, vanilla, orange, cloudy, white foam, medium sweetness, lightly bitter, lightly sour, medium body, thin feel, sticky, long finish, soft carbonation,

Bottle 25cl, an amber beer with low head. Nose is hopy. Aroma is low, bit watery with yeast notes, body is medium with fruit notes, finish is slightly hopy.

25cl bottle. Very thin white head. Clear golden blond pour. Ok but not very exciting

Lemon, acidic, a bit of metal and mineral on a very dry finish. Amber in color, basically clear. Slightly sweet aroma, butterscotch.

Draft @ Delirium. Couleur ambrée, brumeuse, col blanc. Arôme malt caramel, citronnée avec aspect de pomme caramélisée, fruits noirs; figue et date. En bouche, malt type pale ou pils, amertume, ,note de levure belge et typique de Huygue, ce qui reste très ennuyant. Bière au malt léger, caramel, sucre résiduel avec léger fruits noirs, amertume légère sur la fin avec impression de caramel brûlé. Comme souvent avec cette brasserie, bière infâme à boire.

Bottle @ home, shared with DutchDrebus. Dark golden light amber color. Not really a distinctive smell or taste. Pretty standard pilsener-like in my opinion.

Der Geruch ist fruchtig, aromatisch, leicht alkoholisch. Dezent fruchtig schmeckt es, nicht aber wie befürchtet alkoholisch. Stark röstmalzern und muffig ist der Abgang des CO2 armen Bieres, das keine Freude ist. Test vom 15.6.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 4,4,4,3,9,4 - 4,10
