De la Senne Zinnebir

Brewed by Brasserie de la Senne / de Zenne Brouwerij
Style: Belgian Ale
Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, Belgium

2nd May 2008. A cloudy blonde ale. A few wheat beer characteristics. A mild hop finish and a very subtle fruit note.

Bottle, thanks to Probstk. Dark yellow pour with white filmy head. Malt, lots of fruit here, apricots some grain and pine. Vanilla chocolate taste, some fruitiness and yeast. Smooth rather creamy mouthfeel.

Pours hazy gold color with a nice white head. Aroma is floral and honey, malts and spices. Flavors have lots of yeast and are herbal and fruity, some vanilla, some citrus and a hint of ginger. With spices and a dry and bitter finish. Very interesting and different taste, quite complex in flavors, but very enjoyable.

looks like the last one fuck am I drunk. A dark yellow pee colour, peppery

Bottle conditioned, 300ml at Brasserie Verschueren, Brussels. Clouded gold with white head. I’m sure this said 5.9%. Fruity, apricot, but thinnish ale type bitter. Quite tangy and with a touch of cabbage water, an unusual flavour. Reasonable, but the pub was terrific which boosted it.

Bottle. Hazy orange colour with a medium white head. Rich aroma and taste of fruits, spice and yeast. Good beer.

Bottle ( 330ml ). Courtesy of Glouglouburp. Cloudy orange, huge fluffy white head (bit of a gusher). Sharp dry spicy yeast aroma, background sweetness, somewhat like crushed tomato vines. The taste is quite herbal bitter, the taste reminds me of how my mouth used to get weeding the vegetable garden on a hot, still, sunny August day - mildly alcoholic - tons of dry yeast. Average body, a bit still, very dry and minerally in the finish/linger - it grew on me - not sure about that aroma, but the taste was unique and enjoyable.

Average size rocky off-white lasting head. Cloudy orange-yellow body. Heavy hop aroma of grass, celery and vegetables. Light yeasty aroma of earth. Medium body, Thin oily texture and a chalky bitter finish. Light/moderate sweet and heavy bitter flavor.
