(Bottle, 0.25 l, 20120704, courtesy of FatPhil) The beer poured golden and a bit hazy. Its head was medium sized with medium carbonation. Aroma had coconut and pineapple that was wrapped in plastic. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pineapple, coconut, sweetness, more sweetness and very low bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet. Yucky sweet mess.

Innocent enough looking 25cl bottle pours clear gold with nano second long white head. The aroma is big and bruising and doesn’t mince words as it pummels with nail polish remover, pineapple and spicy wood notes. At this point I’m really thinking hard if I want to taste something that smells this bad. Whoa this smells big strange. Ok, here goes. The taste… well it hits with bold sweet pineapple followed by a bit of chemically off notes , odd yeastiness and then some sort of pineapple like tartness around the edges. This is something else. Really sweet and pineapple-y but thankfully doesn’t actually taste as bad as it smells. I love odd smelling beers but not really in this way.

25cl, BB 01/07/2012. Que dire de De Troch si ce n’est que leurs bières fruitées sont une insulte au divin lambic. Dorée avec qcq particules levure, col blanc. Arôme est en effet plein d ’ananas sur ce bouquet de faux sucre, en retrait le côté lambic est minime. En bouche, arrière palais de lambic, le tout sur un jus d’ananas restant bien voire trop sucré aux relents tropicaux. Un lambic qui colle aux lèvres ? ouaip, mais non, goûté une fois, plus jamais. Pas digne d’une appellation lambic.

Originally rated June 2005. Best before date: 25/03/07. Golden-amber colour with slight haze. Not much of a head, no lacing. The aroma is heavy with pineapple, mixed in with sour vinegar in the background. The taste starts off very sweet, turns sour in the middle and then balances out both flavours. The pineapple juice they use in this one is what stays in the aftertaste. Tarty mouthfeel. More like juice then a lambic, but still a decent brew.

Bottle @ home, shared with my girlfriend. Clear yellow to orange color. Smell is undescribable! A mix of something fruity with something weird and horrible! Can’t bear to smell it again. Taste is slightly less bad. A lot of fruit, sweetness and just a bad mix. Low carbo, low body.

Poured from a bottle and shared with a few other Norwegians visiting the brewery. Orange coloured body, without any head. Smell and taste of pineapples and tropical fruits. Very sweet. Maybe as a sweet soft drink (Toer de Geuze, Wambeek 01.05.2011).
