75 cl bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. (Note: label says 9.5% ABV, so is this a new entry? Admins: please correct and move my rating if I’m wrong) Hazy orange color with some yeast residu floating in it. Medium sized off-white head that lasts for a while. Smell some malts, lightly herbs or spices, some fruitpeel-bitter. Taste malts, fruitpeel, some herbs or spices, a bit herbal bitter. Medium body, fizzy carbonation that makes me burp. Ok beer.

Upon opening, huge UFO’s and other chunks getting agitatedly mad in the bottle; no gushing but all the same the glass gets filled with 4/5’s of dense white head, leaving shards of lace over unclear yellow beer with a greenish sheen. Very spicy (rosemary, sage, coriander,...) nose, sharpish, with citrus, chalk, dishwashing liquid, blossoms. Spicy and very faintly smoked or ashy; again citus (lemonsquash) in the background. Non-sweet lemoncookies with some weird dry spicing. Warming up, gets notably sweeter. Very spritzy, refreshing; slick, not very well-bodied. I can dig this. Tim, where the hell did you find all that smoke and rotting? Bad bottle, yours?

Imported from my RateBeer account as DijkWaert Thals 1886 (by DijkWaert):
Aroma: 2/10, Appearance: 3/5, Taste: 3/10, Palate: 3/5, Overall: 6/20, MyTotalScore: 1.7/5
9/X/2012 - 75cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ Klaas' place - BB: n/a (2012-1123)
Clear bright yellow beer, big aery white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very smoky, overripe to rotten fruits, very nasty. MF: lots of carbon, light to medium body. Taste: bit sweet, grains, quite some smoke, overripe fruits, plums, little bitter, some overripe banana. Aftertaste: little bitter, smoky, some yeast, bit hoppy. Now I like smoked beers, let that be clear. But this one doesn't work for me AT ALL.
