[i] Bottle I think that I picked this up from the Dodgy Deli’, Cowely Road, Oxford [/i] Pours warm golden with large white head. Aroma hoppy, bit florally. This really tasted smashing and nothing like I’d expected especially for the style. This was a real hit, great hoppy explosion combining with some nice toasted malts a lovely lingering bittereness, quite fruity and very moreish, great beer!

Bottle Swing-top: Poured a hazy orange color with a thin creamy white head. The aroma is fruit, slightly veggy with notes of hops. The taste is a metal spicy full hopped flavor. Aftertaste is much more than could be desired.

Bottle. Brown beer with a tan head. Malty, mineral aroma. Caramel flavor with some mineral and spice and slight lemon. Caramel and mineral lingers. Medium body. Easy drinking.

Pour is a murky blond with a small soapy white head. Aroma is some fresh pils hops with a malty backbone. Flavor is more of the same and equal to the aroma. Plenty of dry hop with some malts and a dry chalk finish. Looking at the pour you would not think this would be a good pils but it fits the style well.

Swing top bottle. Pour is a brown with a average white head. Aroma is deffinatly super sweet malts with some brown sugar added. Flavor is a let down. Very weak. Some sweet malts but nothing that compares to the aroma. A just ok beer but it did come with a glass and some coasters.

Draught at KØ07. Seemingly clear chestnut colour. Big stable head. Soapy, perfumy aroma. The flavour is sweet, but with OK sourness to balance. A bit too sour for me, actually.

2005 12 oz. bottle purchased at Blue Max in Burnsville, MN shared with tjthresh. Pour is a cloudy yellow gold. Aroma has hops and quite a bit of malt. The taste was very big, hops, malt and an almost syrupy sweetness. Would love to try this fresh as a comparison, but this was a very interesting brew.

Dark orange beer with small, off-white head. Some hops, German obviously, a bit of ureum, but discreet, and a bit of garden herbs. Quite carbonated, grass, a remarkable toasted malts flavour; beautiful bitterness, remaining in the aftertaste, always accompagnied with a toasted flavour. Carbonated, a bit chewy, very rounded for a Pilsener. One of the best Pilseners in the Low Countries. Again in the style (after some poorer period) Leo Brand intended.
