Bottle at De Paas, Den Haag. Poured a hazy medium amber with a long lasting frothy white head. The aroma is yeast, floral hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a dry crisp slightly watery, light citrus, light grass hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Easy drinking but lacks defining flavours.

0.33 l bottle from ’De Bierkoning’, bottled in January 2016. Clear, golden amber with a medium large, foamy, stable, tan head. Sweetish-fruity, slightly spicy aroma of honey melon, peach and clove. Sweetish-malty, fruity taste of peach, honey melon,clove and some bubblegum, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter and yeasty-spicy finish with notes of clove and banana. Medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Not what I expect from an IPA, feels more like a hoppy Belgian Ale. Quite okay though.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Dutchdrebus and Joes. Clear amber reddish color, average to medium sized white head. Smell and taste are both weird, a bit medicinal, herbs or spices, a weird sort of anise liquorice, wheat. Not my thing.

0.25 l bottle from ’Liquorstore The Pint’, bottled in January 2016. Slightly hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, creamy, almost stable, tan head. Sweetish, yeasty-spicy and herbal aroma of fennel, coriander, clove and some banana. Sweetish, yeasty-spicy and herbal taste of fennel, coriander, banana, licorice and clove, followed by a short, slightly bitter, yeasty-spicy and herbal finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, average carbonation. Interesting experiment, but especially the fennel is way too prominent, overall unbalanced. Strange for a first brew, but certainly braver than just another IPA. Definitely curious about the following brews. This beer is just not my cup of tea.

25 cl bottle from Liquorstore The Pint. Red copper color, mostly clear (before adding the yeast). Off white head, quickly diminishing. Aroma’s: sweet malts, sweet fruit, wheaty. Retronasal it’s wheaty, fruity, caramel, coriander, citrus peel. Flavor is moderate sweet, light yeasty, with a hint of bitterness. Medium bodied. Spices, some yeast and light bitterness in the finish. Decent, but nothing shocking.
