Thanks to Alengrin! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ “Tim needs to get rid of his ticks” Tasting. Enjoyed together with tderoeck, Benzai & Alengrin. 2007 Vintage. Darker brown, little head. Nose is artificial honey oxidation, cooked apple, just pure oxidation notes & nothing else; Taste is cooked apple, light iron, cardboard & honey oxidation, oxidation sweetness. Thinned out. Whatever the beer was original it has been lost to age.

Commissioned beer for a customer in the village of Watou, after an original recipe, at least that is what is claimed. Light amber-coloured session ale with thick moussy head and fruity character, green hops, refreshing, nutty malts, slight sugary touch, hop bitter finish but thin mouthfeel.

Huge yellowish, fluffy head fed by well-carbonated metallic-amber beer with pistacchio reflections. Sweet coloured malts, caramel to the fore, leafy, sweet cookies, whiff of fruity acids & sweetener. Very roasted (not burnt) flavour, leafy, caramel, and more fruity esters; unbalanced. Slightly burning MF, bit sticky (sweetener?) and pretty light body. Ho-hum. Yet a good point for Van Eecke, is the brewery is mentioned on the label. Despite that I got a whole story about the thing being brewed exclusively in a small Watou shed... If I may venture a wild guess, the same as the Camalou.
