Not only the name is weird and bad. Orange to red colour with lots of yeast. Smells strawberry and banana syrup. Tastes like it smells, with some yoghurt and malts. Okay carbo, light body.

Bottle @ home, shared with Dutchdrebus and Thompson. Hazy reddish color, off-white head and a lot of yeast particals in it. Smells very sweet and very much like strawberry. Good work making a beer that has a real strawberry taste in it, but I just don’t like it in a beer. Low cabro, low body.

Hazy light brown colour. Spicy, yeasty aroma. Fresh, malty taste. Quite a prominent coriander flavour comes through. Light caramel in the aftertaste.

Bottle, 75cl corked, at De Heeren van Liedekercke. It’s an unclear, brown beer topped by a dense, finger-thick, off-white to beige head leaving lacings. Cellar, prune notes, hints of chocolate and Belgian yeast as well as some caramel on the nose. The flavor is sweet, with chocolate and caramel hints, prunes and a fine hoppyness giving some bitterness. Full body, smooth and nicely carbonated. Mostly sweet in the end, but with bitterness trying to bring balance. A really pleasant one. 110501
