Seems there might be 2 almost the same versions: Klootzakske and Klootzakske original. The bottle is slightly different, the same ABV will see if there is any noticeable difference. Original version: Smell-weak, banana, malt, faint Belgian yeast. Foam- thin, malt, faint sourness, then hit of hops and bitter tones. Head is large, white in color. Sticks a bit. Appearance- generic white bottle cap. Simple label, with some hairy balls. Cloudy orange color, few carbonation bubbles. From - snifter Price- 2,49 euros Taste- weak hops, weak malt, bit dry, faint Belgian yeast and then more hops. Bitter aftertaste mixed with some pine and grass and malt. Bitter hoppy aftertaste, lasts for some time. Nothing special. 6/2/5/3/11=2,7 Non-original version: Smell-weak hops, grass Foam-thin, weak sour notes, weak hops, weak malt. The Head is medium-sized, sticks a bit. Appearance- black bottle cap, simple label, almost same as original version. From - snifter Taste- weak malt, weak bitter tones, weak Belgian yeast, weak bitter and malty aftertaste. Generally a lot calmer and less harsh than the original one. For me - better. Smell - 5 (worse) Appearance - 2 same Taste - 6 better Mf - 3 same Overall - 12 better End 2.8 The bottom line original did win only in smell and the new version wins in taste, also it is more neutral for my taste, so I seem to like the new version better.

33cl bottle. A clear golden beer with a white head. Aroma of mild citrusy and grassy hops, wheat malt, yeast. Taste of herbal pale malt, grassy hops, citrus, refreshing hoppy finish.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a muddy orange colour with a thinnish soapy looking off white head. Very faint aromas of vegetables, herbs and spice. Taste has more of the same bland notes with quite a fair amount of peppery spice. Dry finish. Thin to medium body with a very lively fizzy mouthfeel. Very disappointing. Definitely will not be seeking out again. Edit: The beer got a bit better by the time i had finished drinking but still very boring.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, yellow-ish, golden colour with absurdely huge, thick, form, frothy, moderately to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Yeasty spicy, grassy and minimally floral, hoppy as well as biscuity, pale malty aroma, hints of unripe yellow stone fruit, some honeydew melon, a touch of quince, whiffs of chamomile. Taste is dry, yeasty spicy, bready malty, minimally tart-ish veggy and herbal bitter, sweet-ish and floral overtones. Watery texture, papery palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. A handful of rather strange flavours accompany an otherwise quite mediocre Pale Ale - nothing to skitter away, not attracting either.

The follow-up to the infamous Klootzakske, and again these guys (working with Fort Lapin in Bruges - and it apparently takes seven of them to come up with completely worn formulas) could not resist the sexual innuendo disgracing the label of their first beer, with a name that means as much as 'horny slut' and depicting female breasts. This may well be intended as an "ode to the Klootzakske topwijven" (indeed the seven spouses behind the abovementioned guys), it remains inappropriate and potentially offensive to do so, a premise filling me with suspicion. Inches thick, foamy, cobweb-lacing, eggshell-white, rocky head towering over a misty peach blonde beer with 'dirty' pale orangey hue. Aroma initially muffled by all that foam, but then releasing impressions of soggy old bread, damp straw, cooked turnip, peach, moist jute bags, cooked apple, honey, banana peel, brown soap, tomato soup gone sour, cloves, puddle water. Fruity onset, sweetish but not sweet, hinting at peach, pear and a bit of banana, sourish touch accentuated by lively carbonation, quite minerally; soft, supple body, soggy rusk- and bread crust-like malts with a slight caramelly edge and a thin layer of residual honeyish sweetness on top, while the fruity esters continue well into a moderately hoppy finish, floral and softly bitter, notably earthy and even 'dirty', mingling with clove-like phenols and bready yeastiness. Some thin residual sweetness remains till the last drop but sugars are not so much the issue here: there is something vaguely 'off' to the nose, as in soup going sour, and even if it remains vague, it still manages to irritate me a bit throughout the bottle. The redeeming feature here is that earthy, noble hop bitterness, lasting for quite a while, albeit in a gentle manner; as for the four different grains used here: barley is obvious of course as always, rye adds a grey bread-like spicy note but very lightly so, spelt adds a dim kind of grainy spiciness but also very lightly, and the corn flakes add a certain amount of faint creaminess which this beer does not even need. A regular blonde, in all, as there are a dime a dozen, dull and predictable like its masculine predecessor. And still the imagery of these two beers bothers me more than the blandness and tediousness of the beers themselves... "Grow up" is likely the first advice I shall give these guys if I ever come across them at a beer festival - this 'Hete Klinke' is hardly a compliment to their wives, if you ask me.

Fles gekregen van Inoven. Het is een oranje geel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een fruitige geur. De smaak is fruitig en zacht zoet.
