thewolf (5635), Kolding, Denmark Mar 1, 2008 Bottle @ Kolding Ølmesse.
Pours a hazy golden without much head. Aroma is sweet, lots of flowers and the distinct mustard notes. A little thin and fizzy.Flavour is very limited, some yeast, the mustard flowers dominate what little there is. jcr (1137), Jasper, Indiana, USA Feb 2, 2008 Not much to get excited about here. In fact, this was not all that enjoyable. Dark golden pour with small, white head that diminishes to pools of bubbles. Spicy aroma of coriander. Also notes of lemon, apple cider. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. There is a bret-like tartness and sourness that could be from the mustard seed. The medium body has a water texture. SpudClampDawg (1027), Jasper, Indiana, USA Feb 2, 2008 If I hadn’t read the bottle, I would have no idea there is mustard seed in this. Pours a dull amber with a ring inducing head. Lots of cidery notes in both the nose and body - almost fusel at times. Thin mouthfeel, with a moderate dose of belgian sugar. Finshes slightly tart. Nothing real stands out to me - pretty boring and standard, except for the sour finish. DownsouthGav (602), Greater London, England Jan 15, 2008 Nose of mustard, herbs and hops. pours an amber beer. Taste is somewhat muddles and the mustard seeds do not really lend well to this beer. My first experince with a mustard beer is not terribly good. beerinmarch (2781), Alabama, USA Jan 9, 2008 Pours murky orange/brown with a small off-white head. Nose of candy sugar, yeast and citrus. The mustard isn’t all that noticable, well at least for me. I found it as a small burn in the nose, and a mild hotness in the finish. Dry and mildly acidic in the finish, through a long fruity ester display. Nice beer, a touch more herbal then a tripel, but along the same lines. Angeloregon (2024), Portland, Oregon, USA Dec 24, 2007 Poured from a bottle a thick murky amber-yellow with no noticeable head. Nose of funky biting spices. Crisp fruit flavors. finished a little thin, but quite unique. Mustard and candy sugar flavors were most delicious. daniele (1642), Italy Dec 9, 2007 color oro varico decisamente opalescente buona schiuma pittosto persistente sentori erbacei speziati frutta candita lieve piccante in bocca leggermnte acidula speziata fruttata ma non molto armonica Fin (3382), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Dec 9, 2007 Bottle at Trappistenhuis, Gent 07-12-07 Poured light amber with a thin white rim of bubbles. Didn’t note the mustard seeds but there was a nice ever so slightly sour crisp aroma. The taste was also very crisp like tasting slightly unripe apples. Wonderful tasing beer, lovely fruitiness, drying towards the finish and very moreish.
