Good, stable white head over finely carbonated golden beer with a light hazy and lots of sticky lace. Explosive lavender aroma upon opening, lavender³. Something out of a brothel... This is insane, tastes (?) as something you pour in your bath. Faint malt sugars, but the lavender just overwhelms everything. Good carbonation, very slick, and it even feels soapy!! No. Dit is erover, jongens, en vér! Txs to Stef!

Huge, dense, stable, slowly pitting-in yellowish head over hazy amberish orange beer. Nice dry hoppy aroma's, bit leafy, but also male perfumey odours. Faint caramel and vegetable frying oil. Dry-bitterish, with some strange, but pretty nice flavours as from carrots, roots, leaves, caramel. The very present CO² makes it invigorating. Dry hops, black cardamom, earthy. Dry throughout, very good carbonation, slick. Nice. We've decided for another decennium of Zattemansklap. Connor? Txs to Stef!

330 ml bottle. Pours black with little head. Aromas of peat, wood, whiskey, chocolate and slick roasted malts. Flavors follow same with additional black coffee and lactose. Whiskey definitely gets more prominent as the beer warms though doesn’t overload. Good stuff.

Pours jet black, no foam. Scent is rough and raw, burnt malts, oak, bit of whiskey but not too boozy at all. Pretty sharp impressions, not as silky or smooth as hoped. to the dry side, especially on todays market - with an oilyness of burnt malts to it. Sharp and a tad ashy, whisky doesn't sit well zith the beer, remains on top without blending in nicely. Not too boozy at all, that is a smooth aspect for sure in this one, but the basebeer seems way to underwhelming for a BA project. Going towards acidic, not by infection, but by the PH drop from the roasted malts. OK. Drinkable and no major errors here, just lacks a bit of balance, and goes in a direction I don't personally enjoy that much.

Small white rim over almost clear, finely carbonated golden beer. Smelly feet - and dried apples. Still... Apple liqueur, very sweet cider; Cheap vin doux. Slick to oily, faint alcoholwarmth. Guys, seriously? This applejuice, was it fermented or just added? This is an absolute dip in the Escort series. Txs to Stef!

Small, rustcoloured rim over jet black beer, pouring viscously. Coffee, coffeedust, cacaopowder, black chocolate, dry cookies, plywood, whiskey. Warming up, the whiskey aromas get stronger. Sweet-roast, restrained whisky and ditto coffee/cacao; Light, playful lactic/stoutacidity. Balanced! Well-bodied, viscous-oily, light alcoholheat. RESTRAINT! That is the secret of this beer: not searching for extremes and record figures, making it good, despite the sweetness it does not become a caricature of itself, as so many pastry I.S. Txs to Stef!

No head whatsoever; very faint veil in golden beer. Grains, light sourness suggested, lactic acid, wild yeast? Light acidity, refreshing lemony flavours, sunflowerseed. As good as no carbonation. Light, faint viscosity. Nice! First kvass here? Txs to Stef!

Bottle, many thanks berntholer, clear golden colour, medium stable creamy head, aroma of tropical fruits, mainly pineapple and some candy and yeast, tropical fruit and candy flavor with a bit of maltiness and a medium grapefruit bitterness. Not bad but Not really a Neipa.
