Imported from my RateBeer account as Eutropius Vinkenier Test Batch (by Brouwerij Eutropius):
Aroma: 2/10, Appearance: 2/5, Taste: 5/10, Palate: 2/5, Overall: 8/20, MyTotalScore: 1.9/5
6/12/2011 33cl bottle @ home - BB: n/a (markings on side of the label didn't match the print) (2011-694)
Clear very pale yellowish beer, practically no head, just a few bubbles. Aroma: bit fruity, some nasty chemical / band-aid smell, just as with the "Stout Bruintje", pretty nasty. MF: low carbon, light body. Taste: some citrus at first, then bitter, chemical taste, disinfectant. Aftertaste: watery, little bitter, weird chemical flavour again, bit sour. Infected? Guess so. I consider that a bad trademark.

Clear light yellow beer; small white head. Infected nose, sourish, garden herbs - sour ones. Sour, moulded grains, wet grain left lying. Light body, overattenuated. Infected. Please rectify, a retasting might then be in order. Then again, with a name referring to the most sadistic of Flemish ’sports’...
