From the bottle at ZBF 08. Cloudy brown with lots of floaters. Lasting beige head. Attractive spicy dry malt aroma. Belgian yeast too. I like this. Odd flavours, but this ginger hop/dry malt works for me.

Fully hazy amber-orange, small yellowish head. Aroma’s of chocolate, cacaopowder, green matter, some coloured malts. Chocolate(malt), greenery, some acidity, ends on explicit chocolate. Maybe some honey. Medium bodied, quite slick, the acidity worries me. Still quite homebrew-like, bit it is obviously in its early stages. Actually quite enjoyable as tasted, but what in x weeks time?

Corked and caged bottle. Almost a cider aroma. Slightly citrus with accompanying sweet fruit/floral notes. Orange gold color with an impressive white head that quickly collapsed without lacing. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Belgian tripel flavors in a mildly sweet way, with a fair amount of bitter and some yeast. Could be citrus and/or coriander. The finish is fairly dry and lightly bitter. It is a nice drinkable ale. Heat is barely detectable.

Fruchtiger und deutlich kräuterartiger Antrunk, zudem süßlich-hefig, dies verabschiedet sich aber früh. Besonders im Mittelteil kommen die Kräuter zu Vorschein, diese wirken zwar süß, jedoch nicht wie im Antrunk, sondern eher etwas honigartig. Verbunden mit einem Alkoholton, der unterstützend wirkt, tritt dieses Aroma wunderbar in den Vordergrund und blüht auch im Nachgeschmack, in dem der Alkoholton stärker wird, weiter auf. Sehr würziger, kräuterartiger und etwas saurer Nachgeschmack. Test vom 21.12.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,11,11,13,9,12 - 11,20
