One does not encounter an orange beer very often - I do remember a couple of beers using blood orange (as an extra in a more complex concept), some yuzu-flavoured beers and even an experimental mandarin lambic, but never one using the common orange. I am therefore inclined to approach this Two Chefs interpretation with caution... Can from an Albert Heijn supermarket (I think). Thin and open, off-white, hardly lacing, feeble head eventually dissolving completely (the oil in the oranges has a 'head-negative' effect I fear); near clear, warm yellow-golden robe with sparse sparkling. Aroma of indeed - and I do not believe I ever had it this clear in any other beer - orange juice and not even in an overly artificial way but quite 'real', orange zest too, soggy white bread, cheese spread somewhere, margarine, oatmeal porridge (unsugared), sweat, wild berries, chalk. Tart onset but softly so - as typifies a Philly sour, which is basically what this is - with apple- and nectarine-ish side flavours drowned out of course by the orange, with all its sour-sweetishness and citric 'fraîcheur', but perhaps just a tad less strong than I was expecting based on the nose. Light yoghurty and sour cream-like sourness, highlighted by the natural citrusy sourness of the orange, accompanies a slender wheaty and 'oaty', grainy, slick middle, towards a finish where the lactic 'Philly' effect and the orange citrusiness combine in a more powerful, concise, indeed 'sunny' way. Light chalkiness and a very mild grassy hop bitter touch, as brief as it could have been, flare up in the finish, but ever so subtly. Philly sour ale with orange flavour: a first for me, and I honestly did not expect this from Two Chefs, always one of the more 'commercial' new generation craft brewers in the Netherlands but never the most inventive or innovative one. Summer sour 'par excellence'.

Tap at kromme haring, hazy light yellow beer, small head. Aroma is yeast, dry, peppery, tart. Taste is the same, tart, yeast, drying, fruit. Nice

Tap, 150, Haring

Tap at Kromme Haring. Hazy dull pink with small head. Funky, soft grapes, blackberries, dry wheat, white wine. Light seeet, spur and bitter. Under medium bodied. Very nice.

Nice and a bit bitter. Quite well-rounded, not as yeasty as a normal Belgian blonde.

330 ml can, as Two Chefs Brewing Mango Guave Passionfruit Sour (Exotic Getaway is mentioned on the rear label), from dutchshopper. ABV is 7%. Hazy yellow to orange colour, large white head. Distinct aroma of mango, also hints of guava, passionfruit and lactic acid. Medium sour and refreshing flavour, notes of said fruits, lactic acid, wheat and oats. A new brewery for me.

Nice beer. Mainly tropical fruitand tart and yet still light. Highly drinkable, good summer beer.
