Corked bottle. Amber color. Pepper, ginger and marmalade in the strong aroma. Sugary sweet flavor with orange marmalade and ginger. Sticky mouthfeel, liquor-like, though not especially alcoholic. Too sweet to be really good.

Lime-flavoured specialty ale with old-fashioned label. Tasted in 2005, I don’t know if this still exists. Off-white head on an amber coloured beer of which the aroma combines a nutty and caramelly maltiness of a medium-dark base beer with the fresh, exotic, citrussy sourishness of the lime juice, through which a soft fruity yeastiness also emerges. Taste is likewise, yeasty fruitiness, nutty maltiness and lemony freshness. I liked this for its originality, more so than most of the other taste experiments of Ecaussinnes.

An orange beer with no head. The aroma is spicy combined with notes of lemon and alcohol. The flavor is sweet spicy combined with a powerful citric lemon note. The lemon makes it fresh, but the alcohol drags in a heavy direction - and the balance is not found nor is the winner declared. The end is dry lemony. I think a bit less alcohol would do it good.

(Bottle) Slightly hazy amber with a lightly creamy, off-white head. Sweetish, caramelish nose with a somewhat perfumy edge - perhaps some coriander? Very soft and smooth mouthfeel. Medium body, sweetish caramelish with some alcohol in the finish. 210506
