Bottle. It’s a slightly sedimented beer, else clear, golden in color and with a small, white head. A nice hoppyness in the aroma, with grass and pine cones. Fruityness and some maltyness too. Some warmth in the mouth, full-bodied and pleasantly carbonated. Fruity and rather bitter, with an underlying malty touch. White sugar too, but not too much. Mostly bitter and fruity in the end. A quite decent beer. 111126

Golden coloured with a to small and not holding head. A bit hard to smell, but sweet, light hops, something liquorish. Very watery, light malty and herbal taste. Misses a serious boost.

33cl, new exclusive brew Anno 2009, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex brew, spicy, not balanced, hazy, small head, nice brew

Good, yellow-amberish tinted head, stable; over hazy straw-golden beer. Chalk upon opening, CO², grass, and (deep)frying oil. Dry-bitterish on a (pale) malty-background. Reasonable balance. Grassy/spicy hops, and again a point of (vegetable) frying oil returning. Medium bodied, very light alcoholwarming, slick. Quite reasonable beer, nothing special.

From bottle 33 cl. Tasted with friends @ VBPF on 24.04.2010. Almost clear golden color, with good white head. Aroma: malts, some bitterness, fruit touch. Medium body. Taste start sweet, malts and light bitter ending.
