11.2 oz bottle-trade with jtclockwork-pours amber with a foamy white head. Aroma is slightly spice/herbal hops, musty light/medium malt. Taste is vegetal/herbal, some spice-clove, yeast, light/medium malt, metallic.

(33cl bottle, BB 11/12) Pours a clear amber body with a medium off-white head. Aroma of earth, caramel, and florals. Flavor of grass, yeast, caramel, light roasted malt, and nuts with a dry finish.

Pours a medium golden yellowish color. Aromas of fruit, yeast and some pepper. Flavors are sour, yeasty, and a touch of sweetness at the finish.

Sweet syrupy aroma. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A sweet flavour at first but with a finish that is a touch herbal/medicinal/phenolic.

Bottle 33 cl from Willems - Grobbendonk (B). Orangy amber with nice foam and superb laces, furious crackling. Greedy aromas of malt, fruity of orange, apricot, hint of bitterness. Spicy taste, toffy, light roasted and yeast. Very fresh, fruity, stay on spices with a bitterness more dry.

Bottle. Pours clear amber. White head. Nose and taste of rotten food, cooked asparagus and salt water. Light body.

Bottle @ Bier Circus, Brussels.
Pours hazy amber with a nice, frothy, white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, some caramel, light doughy, a bit of fruity hops. High carbonation, okay light fat mouthfeel. Flavour has a bit of metal, otherwise fine sweetness, fat caramel, light vinious. Remote notes of yeast and fruity hops.

Not much going on. Appearance is OK , with a nice amber color and off white head. Hardly any aroma, just a hint of herbs & vegetables. Not much flavor either. Just some yeasty & herbal bitterness in the finish. Disappointing.
