Weird beer spiced with cannabis flowers, but the label explicitly states that it does not contain THC (if it were the case, this would legally be in a sort of grey zone in this country, I guess). Medium thick, snow white, loosely structured and therefore unstable head over a hazy pale yellow blonde beer with greenish hue and fierce sparkling. Unattractive aroma: dust, dried grass and dito flowers (I assume this is the cannabis), raw grain, iron, old bread, cardboard, sweat. Taste begins with hints of pear and unripe peach, minerally carbonation, thin body with a feeble, lightly bready maltiness to it, a bit metallic even in the middle, finishing with generic dried kitchen herbs (the cannabis, doubtlessly), some floral hoppiness but nothing deeply bitter, and a neutral kind of powdery yeastiness. Man, this is boring in all respects... If the aim was to evoke cannabis without actually containing THC, they would have been better off using an American C-hop, like Columbus or something, the aroma of which is not unlike that of weed (both plants are in the same family and therefore share certain properties...). Or what the heck, use the real deal, thàt would really have made a difference... In this form: just a gadget, but by no means a good beer.

Bottle from tderoeck, thanks Tim. Hazy yellow colour. Sugary sweet aroma. Flavour has a citrus edge. There’s a background skunkiness to it. Quite thin and watery. Sweet aftertaste.

Bottle @ home. Hazy to murky pale yellow color with small yeast residu floating in it, average to medium sized quite quickly diminishing white head. Smell and taste malts, herbs or spices, soap. Not very nice. Taste malts, herbs or spices, some orangepeel, lightly sweet-bitter. Decent body and carbonation. Overall not very good though.

8/V/14 - 33cl bottle from Willems (Grobbendonk) @ home - BB: XII/2017 (not sure, marks on the side of the label were not very clear) (2014-486)

Clear pale blond beer, big creamy off-white head, little stable. Aroma: very sweet, orange peel, sugary, fruity, some spices, bit dusty. No cannabis smell though. How could they miss such an opportunity? Like any hoppy blond Dupont beer always smells like cannabis, just imitate that or something! :p MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, lots of orange peel, dusty, some cardboard, little bitter. Aftertaste: soft bitterness, bit grassy, sweet and malty, little bit of citrus, some caramel. Meh.

Vilvordia Bierproeffestival. More marzipan than cannabis… Weird!

Pale gold with a light greenish shine; bubbly white head, leaving lace. Vomit. Sorry, but that’s what it smells of: vomit. And it has been done on some cardboard. And something like an artichoke gone pulpy came out. Bitter(ish) artichoke, or raw spinach - it’s probably the cannabis. At least the taste is OK; vegetable-ish, but not revolting as the nose. Light to medium bodied, a bit slick. Tobacco-like in the aftertaste. Let’s say it’s not my beer.
