Gushing to rather small, off-white head over slightly hazy orange-yellow beer with a faint mossy shine. Perfumed, vanilla, soapy, faint spicy & herbal,. Little, hidden point of vinegar. Sourish-sweet taste, with old honey, honingbollen , slightly oxydized grain, speciality grains. Jumble of flavours, not coherent. Sticky MF, as if there’s really honey in there, partially fermented. Alcohol remains pretty well hidden, restsugars abound; well-carbonated. I wonder about the honey. Problem is, if I can dig honey, I’ve always abhorred the taste of honingbollen (honeysweets). Even in beer, ’t would seem.

Bottle, 8%. Good bready and slightly citric aroma. Citric flavour, seems a little infected. The bottom of the bottle is very muddy orange. Thick flowing. Huge difference between the first and last pour. Softer flavour with the sediment, less citric and more rounded.

Gushing to huge dark-cream head over hazy brown-amber beer, with mossy shine and UFO’s aplenty. Sourish, fruity, yeasty esters nose. Quite vinous, hyped up by the probably hefty alcoholcontent. Sour-sweet taste, fruity, very yeasty, including meaty esters. Alcohol & fusels, lots of lactic acid, human sweat, stale alcoholcake with raisins. Quite well-bodied, despite the alcohol and the acids. It’s still lightly infected, just as Den Twaalf used to be. Needs long cellarlagering, IMHO.
