2/07/2011 75cl bottle @ Oostendse Bierjutterij (2011-302)

Note: This rating should be seen within it's particular style, being a Belgian "Tablebeer". This is a low alcohol beer that was drunk until some decades ago, in every Belgian family during lunch or dinner. Instead of soft drinks, the kids also drank a small glass of this beer.

Little cloudy red brown beer, small white head, unstable and adhesive. Aroma: bread and malts, light caramel. MF: light but ok carbon, light to medium body. Taste: sweet, sugar, bit of caramel, then citrus notes and bitter hops. Aftertaste: bit sweet, caramel, bitter ending. Surprisingly tasteful for a tablebeer and although still sweet, it has more hop notes than anticipated. I'll be serving this to my kids, when and if I will get any. ;-)

The bottle looks very simple, the beer in the glass is okay. The beer starts malty and sweet, the finish is very washy. Easy to drink, but nothing special.

ZBF2008: From bottle. Pours hazy brown with a lacing tan head. Light malty aroma. Flavour is light caramel malt, quite sweet. Holds a mild canesugarish flavour mixed with bitter and dry hops flavour. Ends in a mix between the sweet sugar and hops, somehow it doesn’t blend too well imho.

Clear dark chestnut with a small tan head. Slightly dull sweet nose, a bit of dextrose again. Dextrose, and malts, coloured sugarsyrup. Ends on an unpleasant solvent touch. Thick viscous and yet not rounded body. Well, what would you expect?
