Pours amber into a tulip. Fluffy white conglomerate head leaves sheet lacing as it recedes. Lemon and herb aromas. Crisp with tingly orange peel upfront and a dry, lasting pepper and hop finish.

A dark gold color and a very tall and thick white head. Aroma has sweet malt and Belgian yeast, just a little fermenting fruit. Flavor is sweet with more fruit. Not quite as good as the other Grottenbier, but still nice.

Bottle. Pale amber beer with a huge cream coloed head. Malty, earthy, oaky aroma with floral tones. Sweet malt flavor with floral/grass and lots of breadiness. Bready/slight caramel malt lingers. Medium, slightly fuller body. High carbonation. Nice velvety mouthfeel.

Sampled this as Grotten Flemmish Ale. A hazy yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of lemon, and a slight acidity. The flavor is sweet malty again combined with an acidic note. A quite simple beer. Had expected more, since I really enjoy the brown version.

Bottle. Malty, spicy and citric aroma. Very cloudy, grey/golden colour. Small stable head. Flavour much like aroma.

(Bottle 75 cl) Comes as "Grotten Flemish Ale - Pierre Celis Signature Collection" - no less! Pours a hazy golden with an off-white head. Aroma of yeast and sweetish malt. Quite full-bodied with some alcohol presence and a surprisingly solid bitterness that holds all the way through. 200506

Hazy orange beer; good white head. Perfumed, some Curaçao and nutmeg in the nose. Very strange, nearly adstringent malt taste, followed by some fizzy, sweetish main taste, finishing in diacetyl (in a CAVE-AGED beer??). Slightly burning MF, surprisingly light body. I’m disappointed by this. The "bruin" is much more complex and subtle. This is just another dumb blonde. ( tasted under the experimental name of "Grottenbier Blond" )
