Bottled (BB 02/2008). Dark ruby color, huge creamy beige head, lace. Fruity/berry: mango and redcurrant like aroma. Medium to full bodied. Red currant juice, fruits, long hoppy and alcoholic aftertaste. Woody oak-like notes in the aftertaste. Somehow unbalanced but more enjoyable than Boerinneken.

Bottled (BB 12/2007). Cute flip-top bottle. Hazy orange-copper color, huge creamy head, lace. Fruity aroma: orange and apricot, yeast and crisp tones. Very yeasty, quite full mouthfeel. Fruity and sweetish, "rye bread with honey and smoked ham", dunkelweizen-type flavor with strong alcoholic bite in the finish. Kind of unbalanced with a high concentration of yeast. Possibly evolves by aging.

A hazy orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet yeasty but also contains notes of peach and alcohol. The flavor is sweet yeasty combined with notes of alcohol and a dry alcoholic finish.

Clear brown color, short off-white head. Aroma of malt, fruits like apple (i agree), candy sugar. Sweet and malty taste, but not as strong as i expected. I tasted the Boerinneken (female version of Boerken) and it was quite strong in taste. But this Boerken was quite thin actually.
