Bottle 0,33ltr: And again a crazy fantastic brew from "Proef" based on a recipe from captain Cook with ingredients from New Zealand. Amber coloured and strange but good sweety taste.

Bottle. Orange light brown color. Spicy aroma with some tropical fruit. Thin. Sweet flavor with lemon, mango, ginger and other nondescript spices. Fairly short aftertaste.

Pours unclear amber, huge, very stable creamy white head. Smell is fresh malts, crisp , bitter, yeast. Taste is rather weak. Some spice, some bitterness. very wattery mouthfeel, and thin in general. the taste itself ain’t bad, but should be like 10 times more intense...

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Thompson. Clear dark orange to light amber color, medium sized off-white head. Smell and taste some malts, lightly herbs or spices, quite a firm bitterness. Decent body and carbonation. Hmm not bad.

Specialty ale with manuka leaves which James Cook allegedly used as a medicine for his men, brewed under license of The Mussell Inn, a New Zealand pub, which apparently invented the brand. Yellowish beige head, deep amber colour with copper hue, flowery and herbal aroma, I have no idea what manuka smells like but I suppose this is it, hints of lavender, mango, tea, pineapple, hazelnuts; taste has again the exotic touch of fruit and flowers, hint of tea which should be that manuka, nutty and caramelly malts, dryish spicy notes of pepper and ginger, finishing mildly bitter. I am not the greatest fan of exotic ingredients in beer and this is not my cup of tea - or manuka, if you will.

Aroma and flavour are floral, medicinal, herbal and soapy with a hint of hair removal cream. Rather unpleasant. I read that parakeets eat this manuka plant to rid themselves of parasites. My kitchen sink is now free of parasites...

33 cl. bottle sampled @ ZBF 2013. Hazy orange with a white head. Nose is very sweet, almost artificial sweet malts and grains, sickly spices,… Taste is very sweet grains, soda, odd artificially sweet herbs, thick candy sugar, medicinal bitterness in the finish. M/M – not my cup of tea, weakest one @ ZBF 2013 for me.

27/IV/13 - 33cl bottle @ Zythos Bierfestival (2013-418) Thanks to the Belgian ratebeer crew for sharing our beers today!
Clear amber beer, creamy off-white head, bit stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very spicy, weird, yeast, floral, sweet impression. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: floral, bitter touch, spices, more flower, black tea. Aftertaste: bitter, watery, weird, tea bitterness. Did not like this one.

33cl bottle. Ambrée, col blanc crémeux. Arôme de malt caramel, léger houblon et une pointe de feuille bouillies de thé. En bouche, malt caramel, note levure, aspect de feuilles de thé et un houblon citronné léger, le tout a juste une pointe de noisette. Jamais gouté à ces feuilles de manuka, mais le tout rappelle le thé. Pas mauvais.
