Bottle, PRZH Winterbierfestival. Hazy orange color, short head. Aroma is spicy, some caramel malt. Bit sweet, bit spicy, some yeast, more balanced than most of the other Winter Ales at the festival.

A red beer with a slight hazy and a dense brown head. The aroma is sweet nutty but also with a slight note of phenol. The flavor is sweet nutty and fruity, but again with a slight off-note of phenol - maybe it is over the top even though it is within the best-before-date. But maybe it is just because it is a Dutch beer ;-)

Deep dark stout with no head. Hops, resinous in character in aroma, and light chocolate. The same in mouth with hoclate notes, but a bit under carbonated and too light a body. May 1,2005 at 2nd KBC Festival, Den Bosch, NL.

(bottle) Cloudy orange to amber colour with a small but stable frothy yellow head. Slightly sweet aroma with orange peels, peaches, yeasts and a bit of alcohol. Sweet flavour, medium body, moderate carbonation. Initially malty and orange fruity with upcoming alcohol, bittersweet spicy and slightly hoppy finish.

A red-brown beer with a small brown head. The aroma is sweet acidic - reminding me of a Flemmish Sour. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of prunes, over ripe fruits, and caramel, but also hints of wood, leading to a dry end.

(bottle) Murky brown body with yeast flakes and a frothy medium head, turning into a creamy tanned layer. Aroma of toasted malts with caramel and milk chocolate. Sweet and sour flavour, medium body, lively carbonation. Toast-malty and sourfruity (citrus) taste, tart and slightly bitter lasting finish, although the alcohol becomes stronger towards the finish.

A hazy red-brown beer with a thin light brown head - doesn’t look much like a porter. The aroma is sweet with notes of nuts, cleaning fluids, and burnt plastic - not very pleasant. The flavor is sweet with notes of burnt wood, nuts, and hints of plastic. The end is dry and slightly acidic. I hope this is supposed to be better - it was sampled 10 days after best before date, so don’t cellar this one.

(Bottle 33 cl) Deep mahogany with a warm, reddish glow. Brownish head. Doesn’t really appear very hazy but contains a huge sediment. Warm, vinous port-like nose. Has some fantastic fruity esters, reminding me of.....pineapple!! Lots of grain in here - even rye. Fine, harmonious beer. 260105

Bottle at GBBF 2005 Dark brown. Nice dark roasted nose, some dark fruit. Good malty flavour and a real pick me up after a row of not very good beers.
