(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a hazy amber golden with a creamy off-white head. Distinct peachy Amarillo aroma. Quite full-bodied with fat caramel notes, yeasty and spicy - resin and pine. Some fruit also. Dry and lightly astringent finish. 110708

Bottled. Slightly hazy amber colour with huge fluffy off-white head. Aroma is big time Amarillo with some yeast and spices along with it. Flavour is quite much the same along with tropical fruits. Very wellbalanced, and also easy to drink brew, considering the ABV, which doesn’t show too much.

Bottled 75 cl (BB 10/2010)
Hazy orange-amber color, good creamy off-white head. Aromatic hoppy fruity (pineapple, pine, mango) nose. Quite full body. Fruity with tasty yeastyness, pine needle and resiny hoppyness, very rounded mouthfeel with plesant hop profile - feels less than 77 EBUs. Fruity and bitter aftertaste, not much alcohol in the flavor. Very good brew from this superb Dutch brewery.

Bottled at Petalax Beer Festival. Cloudy golden, rich head. Rich lychee aroma. Perfumy and lightly soapy. Dry and surprisingly light bodied with well rounded mouthfeel. It has that Belgian style fruity yeastiness and a long, somewhat resiny hop bitterness.

Body is full, texture is oily oily, carbonation is soft to flat. Very nice .. that is my kind of beer ;o)) (150508)

Tap @ brewery. Cloudy brown color with a reddish glow, thick creamy off-white head, beautiful lacing. Aroma of hop, bit grassy, fruit like orange, slight spicy. Tastes a bit the same, almost like a hoppy belgian triple with the spicyness and orange. Not your average double IPA, but with a belgian twist.

Dark amber color, hazy; big creamy head. The aroma is light, spicy, a bit cheesy, a bit fruity; mild but very nice. Medium body, smooth mouthfeel, good malt flavor, with a Belgian touch, good fruity hoppiness, strong bitterness. Even if 1 year old, it’s very interesting and excellent.

Cloudy amber color. The first beer that comes to my mind is t’Smisje Double IPA: a Strong Belgian Ale (from the yeast) combined with strong and American hops. Nice aroma, but milder than an american IIPA, with a touch of vanilla and cream. Good body strength, the strong malty flavor is corrected by the Belgian yeast; it has a good hopping, aromatic and resiny. Very good.
