Cloudy nutbrown color, short head. Aroma is light malty, bit metallic, bit roasted nuts. Little sweet and malty taste but also some sour yeast, some bitterness, slightly fruity. Not very spectacular.

(I very much doubt this is actually brewed at Klein Duimpje. Scheldebrouwerij is much more plausible). Clear red amber; yellowish dense head, irregular. Rich cake aromas, fruity & estery (banana - and I would agree with Edo about some pear). faint bitter, again woody in character. Seems typical for Klein Duimpje. Not much else, but yeasty. Medium-bodied, bit thin texture - not Belgian. Glimpse of sweetness in the aftertaste. Certainly not bad, just not exciting.
