Aroma of sweetish fruits, tropical fruits, orange, mango, malty caramel, pine, big hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a solid bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice balance between fruits and malts, leaning toward fruits, which is just the way I like it. Hope to drink this beauty again soon.

Aroma of bready malt, caramel, tropical fruits, some citrus, hoppy notes. Flavour is moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. An IPA with a strong malty backbone.

Aroma of roast, chocolate, vanilla, chocolate chip cookies, cream, chocolate cake, Bourbon, cinnamon, some coffee notes. Flavour is big sweetness. Body is massive and thick. Literally like drinking a dessert with alcohol. Extreme and delicious.

From tap at Jopen Proeflokaal Amsterdam. Listed as "Magic Rock Rhubarb & Custard", which is most likely an error. Aroma is tart rhubarb, strong peppery spicy/herbal notes, sour pickles, floral notes. Flavour is moderate to medium sour. Interesting beer, flavour caught me by surprise. Not really my kind of beer though.

Can at home. Aroma is strong grapefruit, fruity hops, tropical fruits, mandarin, tangerine, wow so fruity! Flavour is light sweet with a hoppy fruit peel bitter finish. Body is medium. Incredibly fruity and heavy on the grapefruit, juicy and nicely bitter. Total tropical grapefruit assault, yum I dig this! *** rerate years later: From tap at Long John's, Amersfoort. Slightly less impressed with the grapefruit. Nicely bitter though.

Can from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is huge Grand Marnier orange liquor, candied orange, dark chocolate, liquorice, Pim’s, some vanilla, more Grand Marnier, touch of coffee, and noticeable alcohol. Flavour is quite sweet with some booze. Body is full. I can see why this is highly regarded, but while this is definitely tasty, the Grand Marnier completely dominates the aroma with its sweet candied liquor booze. A bit too much in one direction for it to be a complete success to me.
