t IJ Columbus

Bottle, lots of carbonate. Opening the bottle is fololwed by a fountain of beer en foam ;-(. Is this due to transportation? Furthemore a nice, dense head, a good finish, a bit of walnuts.

Bottled. Dark red bark color. Woody, sweet, charcoal and worcestershire sauce nose. Nice and complex. Cloyingly sweet flavor, overwhelming esters, extremely hard to drink. Boozy, muddy, and uncomplex. I dig the aroma though.

Cloudy amber big head. Strong malty yeasty aroma of ripe fruit, citrus, flowers and spices in mouth. Flavour is sweet with some refreshing sourness in finish.

Bottle… C&P’sLYFO Throwdown… Cloudy orange ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Fantastic retention. Spicy, grainy nose. Full-bodied with a fairly creamy mouthfeel and mild carbonation. Leans on the sweet and malty side of balance. Finishes moderately bitter, abrasive, and then dry. Bottle provided by GoT! * * Video = http://homepage.mac.com/maltajo/RATEBEER/iMovieTheater10.html

FRO Throwdown: Cloudy copper with floaties. Strawberry and hay nose. Leather and hay, dry grassy notes.

Bottle from the Otown throwdown. Orange pour wtih a medium sized mostly white head. Aroma is very yeasty, sweet, oranges, honey, and caramel. Flavor is sweet and heavy on the malt. Has some good fruit tones and maybe a hint of spices too. Overall not bad.

On tap @ the brewery. Cloudy orange body with a big, but disappearing off-white head. Aroma of fruit, yeast, spices and notes of banana. Flavor is malty, sweet and refreshing with a spicy floral finish. Nice but not outstanding.

At vonk slijterij Zaandam, heazy orange, little head, spicy, hinds of pepper, cheese, basement aromas, some saur, some fruits like peach an cirus fruits, nice but strong one.
