Nice orangey body mostly clear and good head. Sweet grains on the nose, chewy, standard at least. Flavour is sweet oatmeal, plenty of sugar. Properly brewed, not straying from the path.

Hazy blond colour. Mild but nice aroma, fruity, pineapple, a bit of sweat, hop bag. Lean mouthfeel, it's very salty, I don't really like the malt flavour, it seems to have a high acidity for the style, and the hop hardly provide any quality.
Not very good.

Blond colour, slightly hazy. Some wet paper, some corn, some malt. I'm not a huge fan of the style, and this one is not impressive.
But it's clean, not a bad beer.

Cloudy golden colour. Lean, slightly more malt than the Pale Ale and Brut IPA, some stale bread, robust bitterness, with herbaceous character; this one too seems very salty. Not bad per se, but not the IPA that you would expect in 2019, whatever West coast or East coast.
It's modern in concept, the execution needs some adjustment.

Hazy blond colour. Compared to the Abbey Single, this has much less spicy hop character, a bit more fruity esters, slightly sweet, but it hides quite well the 7%, less bitter too.
I'm not a fan of those American esters, almost bubblegum, but it's quite balanced and refreshing.

Brown colour. Mild aroma, stale bread and light roasted malt. Soft mouthfeel, light caramel, still nothing that says "nut brown", light residual sweetness. Not as bad as Newcastle, but not exciting either.

Blond colour, hazy to cloudy. As it turns out, it's very similar to the Kölsch, slightly more bitter, but without the expected malt flavour and Saaz character, just slightly herbaceous and peppery.
Clean.

Cloudy blond colour. Interesting aroma, light manure, maybe something closer to a Brut IPA too. Soft mouthfeel, a bit chalky, definitively not Brut, and without the amylase result; the bitterness is bold, the character a bit herbaceous, light fruity esters in the finish.
It's a bold Pale Ale rather than a Brut IPA, ok beer.

Cloudy blond colour. The yeast character is pervasive, veey estery, loads of coriander and a trace of clove; at least the flavour is crisp and the bitterness is robust.
American interpretation, not truly Belgian, but decent beer.

On tap. Aroma is of sugary peach and brown sugar. Has good foam on top of a clear copper body. Flavour is cloying heavy alcohol and sugar. Soft on the mouth. Just okay.
