Bottle shared at Maakuns. Unclear amber pour with thin white head. Sweet malts, sugary honey dipped cardboard, bitter brown peanut skins, fruit syrup, baker’s yeast, earthy dry and bitter. If I imagine pine needles and focus on a virtual image of walking through a forest with gone brown needles on the floor, it gets a liiitle bit better, more enjoyable, but maybe just because of that image in my head. Moderate sweet and strong bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation.

Bottle shared thanks to sjogro. Hazy amber with quite small beige head. Earthy, cooked raspberries, lots of cardboard, that weird stuff inside walnuts that you don’t want to eat, bready, dry plum skins. Medium sweet, quite bitter and light tart. Medium bodied and low carbonation. I usually like Bird beers, but this is weird and not very good.

Amber ale by this bird-centered Amsterdam brewing company, thanks Craftmember for sharing. Opening, snow white, irregular head leaving dots in the middle of a copper-hued amber coloured beer. Aroma of fried red onions, red bell pepper, olive oil, cheese crackers, stewed shallot, hard caramel candy, pine nuts. Clean fruitiness in the mouth, quite “Anglo-Saxon” indeed with notes of red apple peel and dried red berries, quite fizzy carb, slick and lightly oily mouthfeel, peanutty and a bit caramelly but low in sweetness, leading to a hop-coloured finish with oniony and paprika-like aspects adding to a main grapefruit peel theme, quite aromatic and more citrusy in the end, while the malts below acquire a light metallic edge; maltiness remains dominant, hop bitterness relatively limited for this kind of ale. Enjoyable enough and it is exactly what it is: an amber ale in the modern American style, a style a bit overshadowed by all those IPAs and other more ‘outspokenly flavoured’ craft beer trends.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Plus, Culemborg. Hazy golden with a white head. Wheat aroma with some citrus hops. Taste is medium bitter, slightly metallic and buttery like a pilsner. Refreshing but unobtrusive.

On tap at Restaurant and Partycentrum De Haas, Elburg, Netherlands, sat outside on a gloriously sunny Tuesday 25th September 2018. Pours reddy/brown, almost clear with a big sticky off white head. Lots of toffee, some banana, in fact banana toffee it is then. Soft In the mouth a fruity bitter toffee finish, very good. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

0.33 l bottle from 'Het Biermoment', best before August 2019. Slightly hazy, dark brownish amber with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish, malty, slightly fruity aroma of caramel, nuts, some tropical fruits and traces of pine. Quite sweet, malty, minimally roasty, slightly fruity taste of caramel, nuts and some tropical fruits, followed by a short, moderately bitter, a little roasty and bit resiny finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay, a little dull.
