640 ml bottle lugged back from Singapore and sent to me by alagnak. I read Chris’ review, so I approach this beer with a great deal of curiosity. "BELGIAN-STYLE Maximum Maltiness" on the label only heightens this. Pour is cloudy amber orange with a loose off white head that falls quickly to just a few loose bubbles rimming the glass. Aroma of a weird celery salt vegetal sort of grain along with the advertised maximum maltiness. As it opens a bit, the funky vegetables take a turn toward old, borderline rotting vegetables. Not terribly pleasant. Taste is initially toasted caramel malt, with a nice soft straw and hay. Mid way through, it turns to the vegetal taste of the nose, though it is thankfully devoid of the "rotting". There is also a sourish orange fruit sweetness present. The finish and aftertaste are a strong pepper and yeast spice. Taste is much better than the nose. The transitions of flavors in this are not real smooth. Palate is medium, light carbonation, pretty heavy overall. This was a weird one. As it warmed up to room temperature, it got much more pleasant and integrated - picking up a few points in the process. Regardless, thanks for the effort on getting this to me Chris.

Sampler at Brewerkz. Reddish amber colour, light off white head. Aroma of dates, nuts, lots of malts. Flavour is sweet, fruity and malty with dates, molasses, some bread, caramel. Light bitter hoppy and malty finish. Medium bodied.

Draught at Brewerkz. Hazy maroon brown with excellent head. Medium body and carbonation. Complex aroma - bananas and esters. Complex taste with pleasant quite bitter finish. Notes of chocolate, spices, banana, citrus and dark malt. A very good beer in a clearly Belgian style.

(Bottle 33 cl) Very cloudy orangey golden with a tiny, off-white head. Lightly sweet and yeasty nose. Medium body with lightly sweet caramel notes, fruit and a distinct yeastiness. Extremely carbonated. Has a vague underlying tartness throughout. Courtesy of highlandland all the way from the brewpub via Sydney. Thanks for the effort mate. 120207

Bottled. An unclear murky orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is weird with light spicy notes as well as oranges and herbs. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of herbs and spices, leading to a dry spicy end.

Dark amber color. This nose is like a trip to the spice islands, garamarsala, cinammon and many I just can’t identify. The mouth is like a chinese stir fry cover with fried ice cream, though it somehow works. Sugar candy and chocolate finish. WOW, very different.

Bottle, vintage 2005, 6.5% ABV
Hazy amber color, poor head. Smells actually like a Belgian ale, with some spices. The taste unfortunately is much more like a poor homebrewed Belgian ale; it has just some malts, light spices (coriander), but the body is too thin, the carbonation is tickling the tongue, and the mouthfeel is odd.
