Donkergeel bier met mooie schuimkraag. Smaak is vrij zoet en licht kruidig met iets van graan, wat zoet fruit.

Thnx to Eugene. Pours very unclear, hazy yellowblonde. Small white head. Scent has intensely skunked. herbal. Eugene tells me his other bottle was fine. bought at Albo, something seems to have gone wrong here. Taste is rather crispy, malty, skunk is milder than the scent (which is just ruined) . OK in it's taste, slightly sweet perhaps.

Kölsch style beer from this new and rather innovative microbrewery in the larger Antwerp region, bottle from the brewery. Medium thick, slightly papery-lacing, off-white head slowly showing gaps here and there but generally well-retaining, lightly hazed deep 'old gold' robe with ochre-ish tinge and lively sparkling. Aroma of green pear, unripe melon, baked banana, brioche bread, camomile flowers, pan-fried apple rings, powder sugar, cold French fries, vague hints of mint leaf, parsnip and minerals. Sweetish onset, banana ester mingled with notes of pear, apricot and red apple, crisp and minerally carbonation, slender, slightly oily body; pleasantly bread crumb- and dry cookie-like maltiness, sweetish with a slight hint at residual, honeyish sugars but restrainedly so, leading to a dryish finish with ongoing bready and minerally aspects accompanied by a floral hoppiness, providing a softly lingering, grassy bitterness and retronasal sweet meadow flower aromas. The banana, pear and peach fruitiness linger along - too much so for a Kölsch, which should be all but devoid of yeasty effects due to long cold lagering; in general, this Ganz Geit remains too sweet and yeasty to fully qualify as a successful Kölsch in my book. Tastes more like a restrained and 'pure' (unspiced) interpretation of an ordinary Belgian blonde, in fact, but admittedly an above average one; needs more cleanness and crispness, less yeasty elements and less sweetness to even approach a true Kölsch, but I must admit that Mortselarij is well on its way to it here, and once again shows the right brewing skills for such a young brewing project. Not bad at all, but not really a Kölsch for me (at least when I compare with the only other one brewed in Belgium so far to my knowledge, Kölsch Is Not Pils by Dok Brewing Company in Ghent, which was much closer to the real thing...).

Huge, just yellowish head, dense & fine, extra-stable and leaving textbook lacerings over faintly veiled orange-golden, finely carbonated beer. Dry hops and dry pale malts. Dry taste, excellent quality malts with just the pinch of sweetness Kölsch needs. Yet a crisp, dry finish with a soupcon of hops, finally ending in dry-bitter aftertaste. Light gristslick, mild carbonation, bit mineral. Phenomenal! After DOK, the guys from Mortselarij succeed to make a Kölsch that is more Kölsch than most stuff sold in Köln. OK, I suppose Mühlen and Päffgen will be better in a comparison, but that's where it ends... Great!
