Thank you for sharing Sebletitje! 500 (?) ml. bottle sampled @ RBBWG V. This beer is a bock brewed with “eekhoorntjesbrood” / ceps mushrooms. BBF 13.02.2016. Pours a quite murky brown. Nose is murky overripe dough, cacao powder & spread, honey, overly carbonated, strange leaves, sugar, spoiled spices. Taste & body are fizzy, sparkling, bit watery. Nutty taste, fizzy dull dough, light oxidation, minerals, spoiled nuts, cacao powder, wet leaves,… Not very successful for me, questionable base, this is less mushrooms and more just odd sweetness, wet leaves etc. Interesting idea but didn’t really work for me.

Clear amber beer, creamy beige to yellow head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: spicy, sweet, funky, sugary, some honey, dry dusty. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: spicy start, sweet, more spices, some caramel. Aftertaste: alcohol, caramel, very spicy, sugary, soapy, weird. I don't like this, not balanced enough. Both too sweet and too spicy.

Sampled @ Ratebeer Belgian Winter Gathering 2016. A bit unclear pale yellow color, small white head. Smell and taste indeed remember me of passion fruit. Quite pleasant actually, nice fruity flavor. Hard to describe but I really like it. Nice one.

Sampled @ Ratebeer Belgian Winter Gathering 2016. Hazy orangy color, small to average sized off-white head. Smell and taste both are a bit weird. Especially the aroma. Taste some jam, sweetish, slightly herbs or spices. Decent body and carbonation. Interesting beer.

Draft @ Beerstorming. Ambrée, col crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme au bouquet plaisant, clairement en avant niveau des houblons, surtout le Zeus, on tombe dans les bonnes effluves de style CTZ houblons. Herbacé, avec un genévrier qui est bien placé. Palais met en avant le genévrier, le houblon est simplement bien placé avec un houblonnage à cru plaisant. Le Zeus ressort super bien, je note un côté pin / fleuri. Semble que j’ai un petit faible pour les bières de Beerstorming au dessus de 6%

Draft @ Beerstorming. Apr§ès avoir dégusté la première version, qui était déjà pas mal, celle-ci propose un effet champignon plus prononcé et qui ont profiter d’une trempette dans de la vodka. Le couleur reste sur l’ambré, col fin blanc-cassé. Le nez offre un bouquet terreux, le profil sous-bois de la première version est là mais le caractère de la vodka semble renforcer ce dernier tout en étant aussi présente. Retrouve un léger côté ester banane de par la levure, malt Munich, je suppose?. Palais met de suite l’accent sur le profil terreux des champis, le tout relevé par cet ajout vodka qui semble conférer une certaine douceur. Le côté umami est là , c’est léger avec une pointe ester. Cara Munich et une légère amertume qui reste tout de même plus en retrait. Agréable, au final je penche plus pour la première version qui ne mettait pas en avant l’usage de vodka.

Draft @ Beerstorming. Dorée, léger paille sur voile trouble, col léger blanc. Arôme est prenant avec des notes tropicales - of course, fruit de la passion, rétro houblonné virant plus vers le noble avec un léger rétro agrumes. Palais est léger, fruité intense de passion, garde une fine amertume houblonnée et certaine sécheresse. Le tout tempère son côté noble avec une petite douceur plus douce de fruité. Un essai que j’aurai vu dans une bière tirant plus entre 6-7°.
