Nose of grains, malt, cocos, a sweet smell that is characteristic for the brewery; later some citrusfruit notes too, and other yeasty aromas. Colour is dull (yeast somewhat in suspension) orange. Very fine, slightly irregular white head, quite stable. Sweet taste, with typical fruity, orangey-bitter surrounding. Like it or loathe it - I could do with a little less sweetness. It is not cloying. Retronasal gets notes from orange-filled chocolate. Definitely alcohol in the mouthfeel, reasonably full-bodied. The taste keeps evolving, in the aftertaste, the flavours turn to some kind of fruit-liqueur, quite pleasing. To be honest, this brewery gives me the creeps for its unending label-story. Pierlala is a labelbeer for the town of Ursel, probably Augustijn. But, as the hands are shown, there isn't much wrong with the beer itself. You could get much worse...
