Tap @ van Moll, large sample. Slight hazy brown color, short off-white head. Aroma of chocolate, mocha, bit earthy. Bit on the sweet side in taste, full of mocha and chocolate again. Some earthy bitterness to balance it. Wonderful explosion of aroma and flavor for this low ABV. No roast, but mocha all the way. Great beer.

Tap @ Van Moll, small sample. Hazy yellow to golden color, short frothy white head. Aroma is slight tart of pineapple and tea, bit spicy yeast, slight grainy malt. Slight tart in taste as well, together with light sweetness and soft bitterness. Brewer told us, it was quite different when superfresh, but still I liked this one as well.

Draught @ Van Moll Brewpub. Hazy orange color, medium sized off-white head. Aroma is lightly malts, pretty hoppy and citrussy. Taste lightly malts, again lightly citrussy and hoppy, floral with a hint of tea in the background but barely detectable. Decent body and carbonation. [Original rating: 7-3-7-3-14]. Re-rate March 13th 2015, at request of the brewer. From now on this beer will be brewed without any tea. Imo this warrants a new entry, but the brewer markets it as the same beer so here we go. Hazy orange color, medium sized off-white head. Aroma is lightly malts, hops, slightly perfumy, floral. Tastes about the same: lightly malts, hops, floral, softly bitter. Without the tea it’s really a totally different beer. Pale ale, IPA.
