2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
(Bottled) Clear, deep amber color with a small, tight and lacy head. Almost no aroma, only a hint of aromatic, grassy hops. Malty, acidic and somewhat harshy bitter flavor with an aromatic-hoppy, soft finish. Some sugariness in the background. Medium-bodied, carbonated palate. I’m not sure who this beer is meant to please. Not me, at least.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Malty. Intense foam. Very hop. It has a strong and aromatic but not exceptional taste. A lot in the nose is felt. Good persistence.

33cl bottle from Noel Cuveliers. Clear amber colour with thin lasting white head. Lemony citrusy easy drinking simple pale ale. Not much else to say.

Bottled 33cl. 5.8 ABV. It pours a deep golden beer with a slightly tanned head. Faint buttery nose. Extremely sweet syrupy taste with notes of hops. Grainy. Beautiful lacing. Full bodied. Hints of hay and raisins. Metallic and soapy. Buttery finish.

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
33 cl bottle from Bieropholie, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. FE16/08.
App.: Medium-amber, clear, moderate off-white head.
Aroma: Grain and loads of apple juice, both old and new, a touch of spice (maybe?), some sticky toffee; hops is conspicuously absent.
Palate: Medium body and effervescence.
Flav.: Lots of old apple juice and apple cider, some toffee, a bit of spice, a little wood and cardboard; an odd sweet/bitter finish.
Horrific. And boring.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle @ some cafe in Brussels. Pours a clear, light nougat body with a moderate white top. Aroma is pale malts, ale yeast and molasses. Taste is too sweet, with caramel and an ale-yeasty smoothness that actually makes the molasses become even worse. Some metallic aftertaste tones. A Belgian-style EPA of the lesser kind, in my opinion.
