25/XI/17 - sample @ Vini, Birre, Ribelli (Brussels) - BB: n/a (2017-1954) thanks to Kraddel, 77ships and other Antwerp and international tickers for sharing today's beers!
Clear dark brown beer, small creamy beige head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: lots of sweet caramel malts, some vanilla, chocolate, dried fruits, acidic touch. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty bitter, bit acidic, very roasted, some coffee, hoppy. Aftertaste: bitter, dry, roasted, hoppy finish, decent, not much barrel though?

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up at Malt Attacks. Pours lightly hazy yellow-gold with a creamy, pure white head. Nice aroma, with some cracked wheat, hay, grass, lemon peel. Light sweet flavour with some aggressive grassy bitterness, more citrus peel, plastic, grain husk. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Fairly dry on the finish, more strong bitter grass and husky grains, dried lemon peel, crispy wheat flakes. Not bad overall.

330 ml. bottle. BBF 01/08/2018. GUSHER too bad since they just started their own production facility. Hazy bright golden, huge que gusher, collapsing white head. Nose is big cheesy, bitter green soap, cheesy hop, low fruity. Carbonation is very high. Dry, very green bitter weeds, citrus soap, grass, very green bitter, rather soapy,… Some flaky dry wheat that coats your mouth, bit soapy. Bit round but very nice De La Senne / De Ranke styled bitter Belgian styled ale. Very solid. Possibly the Simcoe & Sorachi version but I am guessing.
