Pours to a medium cloudy orange / amber. Persistent porous head of 2 cm. Nice wide bouquet of aromas: orange, orange marmalade, apricots. Quite good in the mouth: orange marmalade without the heavy sweetness. A bit dry / metallic but otherwise very good.

Pours jnclear, yeasty lookin blonde. Medium white head fades fairly fast. Scent is very mild, distant hops. Bit malty. Be yeast recognizable . Taste is rather bitter, medium hoppy, fruity. Mild malty base. Some BE yeast. Not great, but certainly drinkable and a decent choise when selection is fairly limited.

Pours to a dark ruby brown / black with porous but persistent tan head. Nice typical Belgian nose. Coriander, candied sugar, Turkish delight, floral, vanilla coke. Nice thick smooth mouth. Good dark maltiness but nicely offset by the sweet and spice.Some dried fruit. Noo too sweet mind. Perfectly balanced. Very nice. The alcohol content is not that obvious.

Bottle at a pub. Unclear yellow color, full sized white head. Aroma and flavor both have a lot op hoppiness, but all those different hops don't really blend together well imo. To use a Dutch phrase: "een bonte verzameling, maar niet echt één geheel". Also I'm bot sure what it is, maybe the yeast that's used, but there's an underlying subflavor that's particularly there in Belgian IPA's while it's generally not present in American IPA's. It makes the beer kind of sweet and resembling a fruit juice imo, seems kind of a waste of potentially very good hops. Overall, drinkable for sure but could potentially be way better I think.

33cl can from AbeerVinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark orange gold, fairly hazy, with fine white foam. Aroma is fruity and citrus, spicy and dank. Body is partially dense, with average carbonation. Taste is medium-high bitter, but with a nice dose of sweetness behind. Final is average and still with an intense aromatic profile.
