Can that ogivlado brought from Holland and shared with me and heavy (thanks!)br Poured a ruby-brown body with a medium sized beige head, nice. Fruity nose, rosehip jam, maybe mixed fruit jam, ending dry and grainy. The taste is fruity again, rosehip tea now. Fine and malty but no hops. Ok, drinkable and even tasty even if it’s not a world beater.

Bottled (thanks jbrus!). Deep rubyish amber colour, beige foamy head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is raisins, some ryebready notes as well as mild fruits and hops. Flavour is toasted ryebread with the burning notes growing for the finish. Some underlying fruity (green apples) and grassy hops as well as some mild toffeeishness and chocolate. Rather big surprise with the burnt ryebready notes, which fit this like a fist in the eye.

Bottle from trade with jbrus. The clear, copper body has a creamy beige head of low height on top. Aromas of dried fruits, a little alcohol, some cooked vegetables and hops escape the glass. It gives a rather sweetish impression. And it tastes sweet. There’s some cooked vegetables here too, but in the background, overpowered by caramel and some hoppy bitterness, leading to a caramel-sweet finish with a touch of fruits. Medium, slightly warming mouthfeel. A quite nice Dutch bock, but I could do without the DMS. (080731)

30cl bottle. Copper with a thick cream head; caramel and malt aroma; bittersweet burnt sugar taste, like a toffee apple; dry finish. Not my thing.
