Bottle at home. Aroma is peachy, some citrus, light malt, yeasty notes. Flavour is strangely tart and light sourish with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Overall I found this drinkable and nicely peachy, but it’s also messy and lacking in bitterness. Besides, tartness is not what I want to taste in my IPA.

Bottle at home. Aroma is floral, spicy and herbal, orange, light malt, touch of juniper. Flavour is moderate sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Surprisingly good floral herbal Saison, well balanced, one of the better Pochpoater beers I’ve tried so far.

Bottle at home. Aroma is malt, raisins, caramel, toffee, berries, tobacco, a little alcohol. Flavour is sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium, low carbonation. Okay I guess, but I found it unremarkable. Could use some more complexity, I’ve had much better Barley Wines.

Bottle from De Bierliefhebber. Aroma is roasted malt with gentle hops, berries, soft fruits, citrus, some pine, slightly herbal with a touch of laurel. Flavour is medium bitter. Body is medium. A little rough around the edges, won't be on any BIPA top 10 lists, but certainly enjoyable.

Bottle from De Bierliefhebber. Aroma is roasted malt with tartish dark fruits, chocolate, coffee, hint of liquorice and a touch of manure. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a mild roasty bitterness and a little tartness. Body is above medium. A bit rough and curious but pleasant Imperial Stout, the chocolate and coffee come through nicely.

Bottle from De Bierliefhebber. Aroma is yeast, spicy and fruity notes, pale malt, touch of citrus, bit floral/soapy. Flavour is rather bitter for a Saison with a light sweetness. Medium body. Not the most elegant Saison.

Bottle. Hazy yellowish golden colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is spices, coriander, mild wood and some slight funky tones. Flavour is coriander, citrus, some yeasty tones with mild elderflower, sweet malts and also some spicy elements. Somewhat thin. Lacks body, and as TBone wrote homebrewish (as in the way, the fermentation seems to have something to it...).
