Shared a bottle with NoiZe and skortila. Hazy orange golden color, off-white lasting head. Aroma is very strong, penetrating orange and citrus, with a hint of alcohol, bubblegum, caramel malt. Taste is sweet and fruity, slight alcohol burn. Long aftertaste.

750ml bottle from Carrefour Calais. Pours orange gold with thinning white head. I like the aroma on this. Malty with good orange rind, slightly sweet with some spiciness. Good in mouth with a little bit of candy sugar, Finish is hoppy but the dryness is balanced by the candy sugar. Good citrus flavours and spiciness.

A clear yellow beer with a fine though disappearing white head. The aroma contains notes of coriander and hints of wheat. The flavor is sweet and again with notes of coriander and wheat.

(Bottle 75 cl) Orangey golden, hazy - looks pretty much like a "Hefe Weizen". Huge head. 30% wheat in this brew - and it shows. Very yeasty nose, slightly perfumy. Has a cloying sweetness and in spite of a dry bitterness this beer seems completely out of balance. Lots of diacetyl. 230405

Clear golden beer; slim white head, fast gone. Grapes (white and sweet) in the nose, orange liqueur, raisins. Again a sharp, but at the same time very refined liqueur taste, bit citrussy, bit of cocos too. Very well-bodied, slick and alcohol obvious. Higher alcohols as well, IMO. Extremely fine-flavoured, but strong winey ale (winey as in dessert wine). Just one thing: absolutely no wheat character, despite the guaranteed 30%...

Hazy golden color; poor head. Nice aroma, of malt, winy, flowers, sweet, a bit alcoholic. Rather sweet, light malt, light peach fruitness. Drinkable, but simple.

Deep golden, slightly hazy, colour. Medium head. Wonderful toffee-aroma with a touch of citrus. Fullbodied and somewhat malty. The alcohol adds a late bitterness. I wish I had more bottles of this!
