Bottle from Sandersput, Ninove. Pours clear golden with a thin, foamy, off-white head. Subdued aroma, with off-notes of rainwater and (over)cooked cauliflower, other impressions of grain, pineapple, faint banana, hay, honey, white bread. It tastes medium malty sweet, some bread & apple, and light grainy bitter, a bit spicy & yeasty. Drying, slightly metallic, grassy hoppy finish. Medium body, watery/slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Not intense enough and not very tasty.

@ Wieze Bierfestivql 2017. Pours clear blonde, small white head. Smell is bit malty. Taste is bit bitter, yeasty, weird sweet side. Seems a bit weird to me, yet OK in general.

Bottle at Rare Vos in Schepdaal, where it is advertized as a sugar-free and therefore ’healthy’ beer. Thick, creamy, dense, frothy, egg-white head, colour hazy peach blonde. Aroma for me is ruined by an unmistakable presence of H2S (sewer water, even rotting egg), pushing away the softer impressions of apricot, red apple, chamomille, biscuit, white pepper, straw, peach and jute. Dry, subduedly fruity onset, apple peel, peach, sour berries, strong carbo (even overcarbonated), minerally, grainy with a smooth, very lightly biscuity maltiness in the middle, retronasal return of H2S and lightly bittering peppery hops. Dry indeed, but lacking in complexity and elegance to be truly recommendable even to those trying to avoid sugar for whatever reason, and the H2S was a major off-putting factor here.

Small yellowish ehad, gone fast; hazy orange beer, laden with very small UFO’s. Herbal, grassy, yeasty and some gravy touches. Oxydized malts, old cookies, hay, not fresh-tasting. Light to medium bodied, yeast- or gristslickness. Not very special.

Clear golden coloured beer, white aery hea, dissipates quickly. Chunks floating around. Aroma: sweet malty, little fruity, some hops, bit chemical. MF: good carbon, light to medium body. Taste: citric, bit malty. Aftertaste: very bitter hoppy, but also bit watery aftertaste.
