Dark beer with nose of chocolat, honey, coffee. Bittersweet aftertaste. But also a very strange caramel taste.

33cl bottle, BB 25/04/2013. Dorée, blanche. Arôme de grains, malt crystal pils, brève bouquet d’amertume houblonnée, nez poussiéreux. Palais reste très inoffensif, aspect pils typique belge, herbacé sur qcq pointes de houblons nobles. Note de grains, malt pils- houblon perle avec un fini sec. Rien de transcendant, mais pas mauvaise pour le style.

33cl bottle from HopDuvel. Acajou, col fin beige. Arôme est de cerise en premier abord, le tout est suivi par ce bouquet de base de cette bière dans un style plus pils. Palais alterne dans des tons similaires entre fruité-cerise et ce côté bière belge-pils via des houblons allemands laissant une amertume légèrement citronnée en fin de bouche. Malt est léger de type carapils. Cela est en contraste avec une approche cerise qui reste trop sucrée et alterne avec des notes amers venant du houblon. Fin de bouche est relève par cette douceur fruitée, de cerises confites en alternance avec un profile houblonne noble des plus typique. Au final, on a plus l’impression d’une simple pinte avec des colorants. Reste moyenne.

Small, pale pink head, fast reduced to rim over haze)ish pink-red beer. Sweet-syrupy, cherrysweets’ nose, poepekes, artificial. To-be-expected sweet, partly artificial cherryflavour, if maybe more watery than usual, but with an equally unexpected dry-bitterish, nearly woody streak. Gradually diminishing in intensity, but giving a welcome relief from the dreaded straightjacket. Spritzy, light & watery. Well, better than expected, but to be honest, the -probably hoppy- bitterness sits more than a tad uneasy upon the basis.

Small, fast gone white head over hazy, fine-carbonated yellow beer. Very discreet, "closed" nose; faint, faraway grassy notes, cucumber. Bitter-hoppy, typical GE hops; quite rounded main taste, but falling dead fast, almost bereft of any aftertaste. Fine pearling carbonation, light body, very easy-drinking; dry-ish. Aimed straight at classical German Pilseners, but I’ve had better samples in that department.
