Orange, murky body. Off-white creamy/rocky head. Yeasty aroma. Moderately sweet, moderately bitter flavour. Quite ok, but bit out of balance. Another Van Steenberge one.

Bottle. Unclear medium orange color with a large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, moderate to heavy toffee, white sugar, heavy carbonating. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium to light, texture is oily, carbonation is lively. (061207)

Rather aged sample. Hazy peach colour, heavily carbonated to collapsing off-white head. Dusty, dried apricots or dates, orangepeel, white candi sugar and some alcohol in the nose. Bit oxydized taste, nutty; further rather sweet but not overly so, enough dry malty flavours to compensate. In the finish some toasted bread flavour. Very well bodied, obvious alcoholburn. Typical VS, sweet, strong, and, no doubt, a label beer.

A slightly hazy orange beer with a huge white head. The aroma is very yeasty, but also spicy coriander and some citrus. The flavor is extremely sweet with a very strong presence of the alcohol right from the begining. The alcohol continues its presence all the way, but turns from being tasted, to leave You behind with a warming feeling, not just in the mouth. The flavor also contains notes of coriander, peach, and citrus. The sweetness gives it a slighlty sticky mouthfeel. This should be good to keep the warmth on a winters day.

(Bottle 33 cl) Greyish orange golden with a thick, tough head, that might descend but never disappears. Unfiltered and refermented in the bottle.Very solid blond ale with lots of sweetness with is more or less balanced by the bitterness. But it’s the strong flavor of yeast that is really apparent. Strong, alcoholic oand not very refined. Typical Van Steenberge. 281204

Slightly hazy yellow color, thick white head. Aroma of spices, grain, some yeast, bit like a duvel. Taste is crisp, bit dry, bit spicy, heavy on the stomach. Only slightly alcoholic. Average beer.

Golden color. Nice malt aroma; hint of apple. Powerful, dry taste; spicy when warmer. Smoother and less dry than a Duvel, but similar, less aggressive.
