Bottle 330ml. Interesting, yeasty beer. Aromas of caramel, butter, honey, and straw. Taste is sweet, with light bitterness, and very good length. Palate is velvety, with a medium body. Yellow, with a big frothy head.

Pours in a thick yellow color with big white foam. A pure delight and one of the best beers you can get from the Netherlands. It’s aroma contains yeast and alcohol and it’s taste is very strong and rather bitter. A lovely beer!

Benzai (2723) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - AUG 16, 2011
Bottle @ home shared with DutchDrebus. Clear yellow color, average white head. Smell and taste nicely bitter, but it’s a bit flat and simple. Pretty useful beer, but could have been better I think.

sebletitje (4413) - Enghien, BELGIUM - AUG 12, 2011
Bouteille 33cl, store in Bodegraven, Holland. Dorée blanche. Arôme houblonne et malt, profile qui reste un peu faiblard sur les notes de houblons. Le tout change en dégustation qui met plus en avant le houblon, levure qui rappelle une bière d’abbaye. Légère note de citron et herbacée. Pas mauvaise.

On tap in De Wildeman. Slightly hazy gold beer, little white head. Light semi crisp palate. A little lactose sweetness. Tangerine hops balance the sweetness well. Lovely sweetish IPA - hugely drinkable.
