Ungstrup (11378), Frederiksberg, Denmark Sep 28, 2002 An amber slightly hazy beer with a good head. It has a very fresh fruit aroma. It has the flavor of a really good malt blend with some spices - my guess oranges. It’s a pretty sweet beer. Overall a great beer, that I’d like to have again - only problem: as far as I know it is only sold on the premises in Durbuy. The one I brought home and drank four months after my visit at the brasserie tasted far better than on the premises - is it the lagering - or just a memory lapse? omhper (10728), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 5, 2003 Sampled draught at the brewpub in Durbuy.
A charming place to be in. The one beer available is brewed by the same brewmaster that brews the Fantôme beers, and you can tell it from the estery, yeasty aroma. The beer is pale orange and cloudy with rich head. The body is light, yet the maltiness is firm. It is quite dry, and the mouthfeel is fresh and vital - winegumlike! A soothing, yet complex drink. joergen (6529), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 28, 2008 Bottle.
Hazy golden coloured with a small off white ehad.
Fruity aroma of yeast and citrus with notes of spices.
Fruity flavour of yeast, citrus and hops.
Hoppy finish. fonefan (4871), Ulfborg, Denmark Aug 10, 2008 Bottle @ the Horse school WSF-08 afterparty in Opstal. Clear yellow orange amber color with a small to average, frothy, good lancing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, tobac, spicy, moderate yeasty. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (240508) JorisPPattyn (4500), Antwerpen, Belgium Jul 12, 2004 (Draught at the brewery) Hazy peach-yellow; huge, dense, creamy white head, leaving beautiful lace. Spicey nose, seems coriander and celeri, bit of citruspeel. Sharp spicey, bitterish taste, some restsugars drowned underneath, flattening out in the finish. Some citrus again. Adstringency in the back of the throat. Light to medium bodied. In the aftertaste, I seem to get chamomille, and again citruspeel. I did not care for the first spicey bite. Don’t know what it caused, as it disappeared later. Marckloff has cleaned out since I drank this first, but it still isn’t one of my favourites. A second glass had a much more hoppy aftertaste.
They have a second beer "Louisiane", which must be the most elusive Belgian beer. Whenever I went there, they are always "just gone out of it".
