Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7
Small, lightly pinkish head, fast gone over hazed, well-carbonated light orange-pink beer with a faint ochre sheen. End of bottle solid yeast. Very dry-fruity, even faintly spicy nose. Dry leaves, dried flowers, including very possibly roses. After some time, smell of mint. Dry-spicy flavour. Very faint fruit and lots of - slightly musty - grain. Bit herbal, not vinous as the Capt. Lawrence. Light body, refreshing, feels very spritzy. Despite its light body and light sourishness, not one to keep drinking. Missing a bit of the fruitiness and of course the vinous character from the Bretts as displayed in the Capt. Lawrence.

Small snowwhite head over hazy peach-golden beer. Dry chilies, powdered (green) chili. Fiery, if not really exaggerated chili, and the problem with this as with similar beers: leaving no room for anything else to note. Bit grainy, if you insist. MF as expected: fiery. For the enthusiasts. To me, chili belongs in food, not in beer. Just as coriander!!

Very creamy head with a little greyish sheen, fluffy, over dark brown beer with reddish reflections. Nuts and sesame oil, very markedly; soy saus, suggesting mild sweetness. Dry, charcoal-like, spinach, and a marked finish of liquorice. Ends on sweetish lactic. Medium bodied, slick. I like this, the more as milk stout counts as an endangered species. I caught the lactose, but not the cacao powder.

Good fine white head over near-clear yellow-golden beer. End of bottle more haze. Coriander, citrus, wheat, very classical, nowhere exagerated. Citrus dominant in the flavours, coriander only comes out in the finish. Quite refreshing, wheat slickness. Overall is as the nose has been defined: classical, but integrated, not too much coriander, OK white, maybe as an old Celis witte.
