Draught at Churchkey. Orange/gold pour. Touches of acetone and heat, fruit, way underattenuated. No complexity and the palate is far too sweet for the style. Not a fan.

Pours a nice pale golden color with a big fluffy white head and tons of tiny bottom rising bubbles. Aromas of earth, hay, round malts and a touch of spicy funky sourness. On the palate this beer is a clean medium bodied high class session beer. I really dig the beer both of these brewers make and this beer hits all the right marks. Starts off round and full of malts then quickly slides into a citrus peppery yeasty midpalate burst of flavor... only to level out into a beautiful earthy finish with a touch of bitterness...maybe noble hops ?

Hazy, pale yellow colour, white head. Aroma of sweets (zuurtjes), yeast, wheat and grain. Light sweet flavour. light bitter touches. Rather sticky mouthfeel, sweet sticky finish with light sour notes.
Not the best beer by Hof Ten Dormaal imho, but interesting as a spelt beer experiment.
(From bottle @ ZBF ’12)

Tap. No head, with a slightly hazy light orange yellow. By grainy, grassy, citric, and light fruits. Some acidity up front and in the finish, bubblegum notes which are a bit odd. Some grains and light fruit sweetness. Lighter body with more muted. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle from Sam’s in Durham. Pours a bright hazy gold with a large and thick white head that settles down into a nice foam. Nose of grain, lemons, straw, and some slight soapy/metallic notes sort of like an old dishcloth. Wondering if my glass was dirty. Some caraway seed-like notes. Tastes lightly bitter. Pleasantly dry palate.

Bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with bone white head. Nose/taste of grains, lemon peel, yeast and dry wood. Lots of grains and barley on the palate with a dry woody finish. Medium body.

375 ml corked and caged green botle poured a hazy gold with a lasting white head. Aromas of straw, spice, light fruittiness and light yeast. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a dry finish. Flavors of straw, earhiness, spice, ight yeast and light fuittiness with a crisp dry lingering straw finish.
