Bottled. Reddish amber. Aroma of dusty red berries and crystal malt. Dryisk with clean mouthfeel. Most flavours are restrained. There’s very light caramel, vague yeast character and some more obvious honey. No bitterness. A little bit too subtle, and lacking the malt structure to make it really enjoyable.

Bottle: Poured a hazy brown in color with foamy white head. The smell was of spices and sweet hops. The flavor was roasted malt blend and a dry hoppy zing.

Cloudy orange amber color, short head. Aroma is a bit fruity of citrus and orange, some caramel and amber malt, loads of yeast. Quite yeasty taste, bit fruity maybe, not really good balanced. I agree with Joris on this one. Missed chance.

Hazy orange color, medium lasting creamy head, some particles. Aroma of amber and caramel malts, some yeast. Caramel malty taste, yeast, oranges. Sweet sticky palate. I like this brewery!

Bottled. Orangeish hazy colour with creamy head. Aroma is a bit barnyardish along with hints of citrusfruits. Strong, quite barnyardish and spiced orange in flavour, Sour grassy hayish notes in finish. Mouthdrying as well as a bit sticky.

Hazy orange, small steady white head. Spelt, funky barnyard in the nose. Hayish, grassy, quite thin and saison-like craft beer.

7/12/2004 Total Score: 3.3(Draught) Fully hazy dark peach to amber; slim white rim for head. Farmyard nose, with some grain and malts, hops and a meaty aroma from the yeast. Mild bitter overlying a sweet, but not cloying main taste, flowery character. Medium bodied, slightly slick mouthfeel, and dry. Nice, middle-of-the-road beer. It has character, without excelling in any particular way.

(Bottle 75 cl) Very pretty amber coloured with a slight haze and a small head. Slightly perfumy nose and perfumy, spicy flavour - coriander? Perhaps a touch of honey as well. Very pronounced bitter finish. Refined and pleasant indeed. Excellent. 120799
