Bouteille. Nez très fruité et sucré de levures (citron, orange, pêche, kiwi, agrumes, léger d’ananas et de banane) et de bonbon avec de légères notes épicées (coriandre). Légère en bouche. Goût légèrement acide de citron lors de l’entrée en bouche rapidement suivi d’un goût sucré fruité (pêche, agrumes sucrées et orange sucré, banane) et épicé (léger de coriandre et de poivre) puis un léger goût malté de caramel bonbon et finalement une légère chaleur d’alcool s’installe. Arrière-goût légèrement amer d’alcool avec une très mince aigreur fruitée. [notes 2005]

Bottle: Poured an amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of grainy cereal notes with light bready ester is OK. Taste is also dominated by grainy cereal notes with light bready ester. Body is about average with good carbonation. Malt bill is a little bit off and overall really not much to get excited about.

Bottle in Paris. The beer starts fruity-sourish, very sour (best before 07/2017)! Not much other aroma, hints of smooth witbier-yeast, pale sourness, that’s it. Sad...

Very dark golden orange. The aroma isn’ bad. orange, clove, ginger, cheese and some egg with oak and wine tannins.Thin mouthfeel. no bubbles but a thick maltiness. Intense vinegar tartness. It’s not sour but that vinegar is present. Not awful at all, a Gueuze? not quiet.

Bottle: Poured a dirty amber color ale with a large off white foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of unrefined grainy notes with weird esters. Taste is also a mix of unrefined caramelized grain with some weird ester and a dry finish with some light residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. It appears the brewer is back to its old trick.

Pours a hazy light-golden colour with loads of yeast floating through it. White cap, decent retention and some lacing. A little of their typical infected brew aromas with sourness, but not as bad as the honey helps. It shows a little more in the taste, but the honey adds a little sweetness to calm it. The flavours finish quickly though. Not as bad as it sounds. Gets better as you drink it. Easy to drink overall, but nothing to crazy. Seems like maple lingers after a while. Even apples. Cool.

Been a while since I reviewed a Schoune (as I do not have a great thing for them). Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a warm cap, decent retention and creamy lace. The Belgian ale yeast seems to be on the maple aroma-side with lots of oranges and hints of raisins. Lots of oranges in the taste as well with some crappy hops. Not really the style it says. Reminds me of their other brews. Always hit and miss. Mostly misses. Not the worst, but nothing really awesome.

Bottle: Poured a light brown color ale with a large brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light cacao notes with dry roasted malt and light fruity ester. Taste is also dominated by cacao notes with roasted malt and light dry finish. Body is super thin with great carbonation. Definitely short on body and complexity while Belgian stout mix does not work very well here.

Bottle: Poured a hazy pale yellow color ale with a nice foamy white head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of light bubble gum wheat notes with some coriander notes. Taste is also dominated by wheat malt with some coriander notes with some light residual sugar notes. Body is quite full with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Not bad but really nothing special either.
