3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 BlackHaddock (2350) - Shropshire, - JUL 17, 201233cl bottle: best before 18 Apr 2013, poured into an ’Augustijn’ chalice on 18 July 2012.
Brewed for a beer shop in Wenduine (where I got it).
Lovely amber body with a thin but full off-white head. The head stayed throughout the tasting.
The nose is malty and semi-sweet with a yeast kick as it warms in the chalice.
The taste is also a semi-sweet malty molasses flavour with both toffee and caramel in the mix. The beer however isn’t just about the sweetness, there is a dry, bittering, hop undertone too.
Easy drinking beer: glad I found the tasting room and shop this beer is brewed for. The bottle and blurb I got from the shop both claim 6.5% ABV.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 77ships (2155) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - NOV 6, 2012
Bedankt Kraddel – 33 cl. fles gedeeld. Ook een van die flessen die al meer dan een jaar lang in zijn frigo staat te rijpen omdat dit soort Belgische bieren hem niet echt interesseren. Deze is nog houdbaar – maakt mij absoluut niks uit. Ziet er amber uit met een melk witte kraag. Geur is echt wel vreemd, rottende natte hooi met een toets natte bladeren, nat gras, kandijsuiker, hoestsiroop en wat curry. Nodeloos te zeggen dat dit niet echt werk, wel iets anders, dat wel. Smaak is meer van hetzelfde, niet even extreem, dat wel, mout, bittere kandijsuiker, hoestsiroop, rottende karamel appels, natte hooi, bittere aluminium, alcohol toets en bam kurry. Lichtjes waterig. Yeah…

33cl bottle @ home. Huge white head on top of a clear orange-copper colored beer. Head lasts for quite a long time and leaves fair lacing. Smell malts, yeast and something weird, I can’t quite figure it out. Taste malts, a slight sourish hint coming through, yeast, a hint of unripe fruits. Pretty dry finish. Medium carbonation, but a fairly low body.

Reddish brown with a light beige, pillowy head. Malty caramel base, apricots and leather. Decent. Light sweet body, simple and with a short aftertaste. Hint of orange flavoured sour candy. Not very special, especially the flavour profile. Okay brew. (33cl bottle, thanks to Martijn for this gift!)
