Bottle @ home. Clear yellow golden color, medium to full sized white head. Aroma is a bit sweetish herbal, slightly yeast, light banana yeasty. Taste malts, malt bitter, only lightly sweetish yeasty hints remaining. Not bad. I like the light sweetness I described in the aroma and the contradiction it has with the kind of raw, basic malt bitter flavor. Decent body, medium and a bit sharp fizzy carbonation (just within limits imo, more carbonation would have been annoying).

Thnx to Tim, Wim, and Eugene for the shared ! Pours clear blonde, small white head. Smell is pure banana esthers. Taste is bitter, pure banana esthers. Slightly metallic, even. Stixky back. If life in Vorselaar is as good as this beer, i’d move out in a heartbeat.

New typically Belgian ’streekbier’ developed by a club of hobby brewers in Vorselaar and executed at Anders, with the zip code of the village as the name, something we’ve seen several times before in this land (with Chouffe Bok 6666 as the best known example). Very thick and coarse, cobweb-lacing, off-white but quite rapidly dissolving head over a lightly hazy ’old gold’ coloured beer with a ’dust’ of yeast suspended in it. Aroma of banana ester, old potatoes, some DMS (cooked white cabbage), peach, melting powder sugar, tulips, cold overcooked green vegetables, honey. Sweet, fruity onset, banana again with accents of apple and gooseberry, sourish edges, medium carbonation, smooth and rather slick mouthfeel. Cereally and bready malt sweet core, lingering residual honeyish sweetness on top, some spicy phenols and a touch of grassy hop bitterishness in the end, becoming a bit ’rooty’ and more effective eventually but seem to be accentuated by a ’jenever’-ish background hint of alcohol too. As stereotypical as it gets conceptually, this kind of Belgian blondes the old way really does not add anything anymore, but I guess the non-discriminate and casual Vorselaar beer drinker will not mind that at all. Just try to get rid of that vegetable aspect in the nose please.

Thank you tderoeck! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ “Belgian Ticks Tasting Ghent”. Pale citrus, sparkling golden, disappearing white bubbles. Nose is sweet massive sugar, banana, candy, coriander, chemical, sugar,… Taste is so sweet, flat banana, diabetes, candy, chemical vanilla, BE banana, spices,… Body is chemical fizzy banana, soap,… If this is supposed to promote their village. Nationalism is a mental illness.
