Bottle as Leireken Ad Vetus Recipe 1830 - Wilde vruchten - Fruits sauvages. Slightly unclear rosé amber with fluffy white head. Sweet malts, sweet old gone brown cherries, strawberry lemonade from syrup, red fruit. Sweet, medium bitter and light tart. Dry grainy and rusty bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation. Cherries need lambic. Can’t really enjoy this sweet malty fruitbeer anymore.

3 May 2018. Bottle at Stokerij, Ghent. Cheers to Anke's birthday!
Pours clear golden with a diminishing, frothy, white head. Weakish aroma of cereal, wet grain, honey, white bread, some 'spelt'. It tastes light malty & bready sweet and light to medium grainy bitter, bit yeasty with a metallic touch. Short, dry, grainy finish, lingering iron. Light body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Hmm, nope.

Bottle at home. Clear golden with white head. Sweet malts, grain and dry grass with thin hints of honey and dried fruits. Moderate sweet and light bitter. Under medium body and low carbonation. A bit more carbonation would be nice. The finish comes in a cardboard box. X-D

Fles thuis gedronken met LiekevdV. Het is een helder bruin bier met medium schuimkraag, schuim is snel weg. Het heeft een aroma van gebrande mout en koffie. De smaak is gebrand en wat door. Bitter in de nasmaak.

Pours very dark, caramelly brown. Unstable white head that just collapses. Smell is sweeter, syrupy, with a coffee aspect ( like coffee syrup liquor ) bit caramelly , very intense on the earthy side. Taste is medium bitter, a sharp acidic undertone (not sure if ment? ) high carbonation. Ends very plastic and sticky. far from great. pretty sure this beer has some trouble, as I do hope this is not the intended flavor profile and mouthfeel.

pours hazy blonde. Smell is stale lemon falvored candy, mild spices, bit powdery (lemongrass powder ) Taste is very mild bitter. Crisp carbonation. Some spelt , bt it dies of to an almost soapy substance. Sweet , especially towards the end. Medium body. Not a big fan, but no major flaws here.

Pours hazy red with a small, frothy, pink head. The aroma contains (sour) cherry, raspberry, strawberry, jam, some herbs and wheat. It tastes heavy sweet and light sour, especially in the short finish. Light body, sticky texture, fizzy carbonation. Getting some wheat and as such, 'bio', in the finish, reminding me of Gauloises Fruits Rouges, but it's still a very sweet Fruit Beer.
