"Specialty Grain" stuff always gets me interested - it could be an amazing mix of flavours never before seen in a beer, or it could be some awful dumpster garbage that people pass as "artisanal" and thus deserves to be revered as you’re trying not to vomit! Thus, the challenge is to find the middle ground, and as of yet, we need to ask if Bioloo deserves any accolades. Pours very nice with murky orange and a big head. Aroma has heavy lemon accents, slight malt and syrupy sugar notes. Taste is an interesting mix of hops and a kind of barley grain with a huge perfumy alcohol aftertaste. Plenty of lingering alcohol and hops on the tongue, with a few soft malt hints, and it’s got a decent complexity. Yet, it’s hard to tell what the "specialty" grain is: it just has plenty of different regular flavours showing up at unique times.

Bottled (from beerplanet.be). Amber colour, mediumsized off-white to beige head that leaves some lace. Aroma is slight bready malts, some grains, mild wheaty notes as well as some spices. Flavour is being quite much the same. Hides the alcohol very well.

Bottled (Beer Planet, BB 02/2012)
Clear amber color, good cloudy off-white head. Aroma is woody-grainy (spelt) and hayish hoppy. Bioloo is a bit alcoholic, mouthfeel quite watery for this ABV. Flavor is perfumic, dry fruityness, a bit yeasty with grainy maltyness. A ok.
