Bottled. A very hazy chestnut-brown beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma has notes of nuts, caramel, malt, and some fruit. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, candy sugar, malt, yeast, and a bit of fruit, leading to a dry lightly phenolic finish.

Bottle, 6%. Sweet, roasted and slightly phenolic aroma. Hazy dark brown colour. Very small tan head. The flavour is OK sweet and malty, has a little alcohol and a faint vinegary note in the finish.

Bottle, 8.5%. Strong aroma, distinctly spicy, some fruit, a little alcohol. Hazy yellow colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is very spicy, slightly sweet, good coriander note. Not so well-balanced, but flavourful. Distinct bitterness in the aftertaste, quite clean and pleasant. Also a sour hint in the finish, not a problem, but might be after a while.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of MiP. Pours a cloudy golden with huge impurities and a dense white head. Very perfumy aroma - coriander I reckon. Medium body, very fruity and perfumy with lots of yeast and phenols. Somewhat astringent finish - not hoppy though. 190210

Deep, dark, ckoudy yellow-gold with lots of flaoties and a tall, merengue head. Aroma of honey, grapefruit, green apples, barnyard. Very fruity, with sweet and tart tones. Sweet start, with honey and cookie malt, grassty, earthy hops, then a nice sour fruit flavor, finishing with a strong hop bitterness. Lemon, grapefruit, zest. Wow. Very bitter indeed. Interesting. Intensely bitter after taste. Rich, full body without being heavy. A super hoppy tripel, though it isn’t called one. Cleaner without the sediment. Good stuff!

Good, fine tan head over reddish cola-coloured beer. End of bottle full of UFO’s. Dark malts & molasses’ nose. Faintly leafy, but predominantly quite sweet malts. Sweetness, very liquorice-like, is counterbalanced by a fresh acidity, that is partly CO², but partly different. Might seem like a very benign infection, but my money is on added lactic acid. Palate is rather empty, despite a sticky feeling that keeps lingering around in the back of the throat. Acceptable, but too bland and too sweet from a microbrew. There’s no point in concurrencing the big ’uns.

Bottle Slightly hazy, orange body. Off-white, rocky to creamy head. Nice looks. Aroma of orange, hops, citrus, banana (isoamylacetate), ... mild, but bit compelx. Moderately (powdery/dusty/hoppy) bitter, moderately sweet flavour. Some cardboard. Bit unpleasant, but ok.

Huge, dense, off-white head over golden beer. Vanilla, sweet with white candi sugar, bit lactic malts – and quite some caramelly alcohol. Faint aroma of (unripe) exotic fruit. Alcohol & caramel dominating the taste. Quite some restsugars for a triple-like beer. Harsh sugars; warming up, spices as coriander. Bit fizzy, very slick, medium bodied, alcoholwarming. Too slanted towards alcohol & caramel. I wonder what might better it – lower fermentation temperatures?
