Bottle. Pours a hazy/grainy cloudy golden with a long lasting head aboard. Nose is sour fruits and much yeast. Flavor is of fresh apple juice with a twist of citrus. The sweet and sour apple notes continue with all of the bready flavors. This was an interesting wit, much different from what I have had domestically. Glad I tried it, but not so sure I would like to try it again.

Poured deep gold with an orange tinge. Definitely the most non-existant head I’ve ever seen. It has a very crisp, tart aroma of fruit dominated by citrus. Tastes remarkably mellow compared to the aroma...citrus at the front with a sort of sour coriander twang at the finish which does not linger at all (thankfully). Instead, it fades to a somewhat lemony sour. It’s good. Refreshing. But certainly a novelty...not something I’d want to drink 2 or 3 of in succession.

11.2 oz. bottle Aroma: Nose is sweet with pear, citrus, and a bit of coriander, yeast, and hops in that order of strength. Appearance: Hazy pale orange with serious thinning at the edges and a practically nonexistent head that did not develop even after aggresively pursuing one. I will upgrade based on head traits but I do not usually downgrade. This one however was one of the worst I have ever seen. Flavor: Starts sweet with the orange peel evident and ends almost sour with the coriander coming through. Palate: Thin mouthfeel with that corander sour taste lingering. Overall: I did not love this beer by any stretch but I cannot say it was not worth trying. If by the artwork on the label they are implying this is Mother’s Milk than mother needs to go into a treatment program because her milk was awfully sour.

33cl bottle from Bier Tempel Brussels: poured cloudy yellow with virtually no head even with aggressive pour. Apple and yeast aroma with some coriander. Flavor was mouth puckeringly sour at first before my tongue got used to it. Sourish apples flavor with some grain and yeast. Acidic, yes. Some chlorine going on towards the finish which is marked by sourness. An odd beer for sure. I don’t know whether to love it or hate it.

Slightly hazy deep blond beer with orange shine. The beer needs a vigourous pour to form some head. The head is white and no long lasting. Smel is flowery, slight honeyed and very corrianderisch. The taste is light and has a crispy sourischness. It has hints of unripe prunes and mirabelles with touches of fresh birchwood and sour yoghurt. Also hints of oatmeal porridge made with buttermilk and slises of granny smith appels. Afthertaste turns dry and ends with some correander, zest and dry grass.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, white foamy head. Aroma is yeasty, acidic fruity and wheaty. Yeast and wheat in flavour, also quite acidic. Unpleasant in most way.

Bottle. Frothy white fair mostly deminishing head. Cloudy yellow colour. Yeasty and very lactic aroma and flavor, maybee this is off, it doesnt taste that good. Watery palate.

Bottle. Hazy orange colour with a off white moslty diminishing head. Aroma and taste of citrus, yeast and coriander.
