Bottled. Hazy deep amber colour with mediumsized white bubbly/foamy head. Aroma is spicy, fruity with some caramel malts and underlying glueish notes. Flavour is rather fruity, spicy and quite bananaish. As the beer warms up the alcohol gets really strong. Quite off-balanced flavour.

Bottled. Ambery pale brown colour with beigeish mediumsized head. Aroma is yeast, fruits, alcohol and some mild herbal notes. Flavour is mildly acidic fruits along with caramel malts, yeast and some spices. The alcohol shows a bit but doesn’t disturb that much. Pretty alternative tripel, if this is intended to be one...

Bottled. Pale yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is banana and very Hefeweizenish. Flavour is also very hefeweizenish, a lot of banana, yeast, spices and some mild notes of alcohol. Quite pleasantly balanced and refreshing, but not that exciting.

[Bottled] Hazy dark amber. Aroma of plums and almonds. Sweet up front. Full bodied with soft mouthfeel. Pleasantly vinous with lots of caramel and burnt malt. Some tannines dry out the finish. Complex, or downright complicated. This beer fascinates me.

[Bottled] Hazy pale golden, no head. Citric and lightly yeasty. Medium dry with light mouthfeel. Plenty of lemon peels and perfume. It’s dryness makes it very drinkable. A classy beer!

Orange to reddish amber; yellow, dense head, fed by lively carbonation. Alcoholic nose, perfumed-malty, some vanilla and citrus. Sweetish-bitterish main taste, dominated by a fruity character, orange and strawberry, grape,... Certain fruity sourness is there. Some roasted malt and even malt extract are apparent. Fiery MF, adstringency, gradually diminishing. The beer gives an initial well-filled MF, but then reveals itself to have a rather watery texture, with a kind of oily suspension in it. The yeast at the end of the bottle makes it more creamy. I’m not bowled over. Can’t make out what was intended. I don’t care at all about style guidelines, but I want to percieve a decisive character - and that is what is lacking here.

Hazy wheat-yellow with faint greenish shine; dense good white head. Nice nose as from lime/lemon or even kafir-leaf; fresh, faint grassy and wheaty aroma’s , very subtle. Absolutely overwhelming spiced taste: mint, camphor, chlorophyl, making the beer very dry; bit dried beans flavour as well. Medium bodied, certain slickness, alcohol obvious. The first-aid flavour surprises, to put it mildly. Once one is acclimatized, remains a quite pleasing beer.
