Pours a hazy orange with a tiny head that disappears quickly. Aroma of wheats, some citrus, cabbage, some spices. Finishes quite dry. Decent, but unremarkable.

Bottle. Blonde. Vague malty floral aroma. Malty sweet, floral, slightly perfumed flavor with a hint of citrus. Decent.

Bottle from Veluwse Heidebrouwerij, large sample. Clear golden color, medium frothy white head. Aroma of a bit hay, farmhouse, apple cider, slight spicy. Slight bitter in taste, more malty and nutty even. Quite sharp carbonation. Brewer told it did not turn out the way it was intended and indeed it is not completely balanced, but it is ok for what it is.

Bottle [from trade with MaartenRF10] @ home. Lightly unclear golden color, medium sized white head that diminishes quickly. Smell and taste lightly malts, slightly herbs or maybe lightly some yeast, slightly sweet. Average body and carbonation.

Clear golden colour, dissipating white head. Aroma of yeast, candy, apricot and orange peel. Lots of sweets. Spicy flavour, yeast, malts and a touch of hay. Sweetish finish, quite dry, orange peel and citrus oils. Not bad, but not really my cup of tea either. Nice label, I suppose it appeals both when you’re interested in girls or sheep.
(From 33cL bottle shared @ Tim’s place. Thanks for the bottle Maarten! It ended up travelling back with me from Borefts so it was shared it at a tasting in Belgium instead)

14/X/13 - 33cl bottle @ home - BB: n/a (2013-969) Thanks to Tinus for sharing the bottle!
Clear dark brown beer, aery huge off-white head, unstable, dissipates immediately, non adhesive, literally nothing left after a few minutes, not even some tiny bubbles. I call that suspicious. Aroma: lot of curaçao (orange peel), no moderation here! A bit sweet and fruity. MF: soft carbon, light body. Taste: orange peel, bit sugary, some citrus, little bitter. Aftertaste: overripe fruits, lots of orange peel, very boring and sugary. (Hey, people of Veluwse Heidebrouwerij, please wait a couple of weeks before contacting me cause you get a bad rating... I've had it for a while with brewers that feel the need to argue over opinions...)
