Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5
A hazy dark yellow beer wtih a small disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet malty with distinct notes of chili. In the flavor the chili is very powerful with sweet malt and oranges in the background, but the body is a little thin.

A brown beer with a disappearing head. The aroma is very spicy with ginger standing out. The flavor is also very spicy with notes of ginger, wood, and berries (especially cow berries), leading to a dry end. OK, but nothing special.

A hazy dark orange beer with no head. The aroma is of yeast, brewmash and oranges. The flavor is very fresh and quite sweet with notes of oranges and mostly aroma hops. Not a standard pilsener, but a very nice thirst quencher.

Clovey banana notes, medium body and bananay finish. I've had much better.

(cask) Black. Dark brown head, dense. Chocolatey, tobacco, even smoked-like. Taste is sweet and mild-bitter, 'acidity' suggested by the roasted barley and the oatmeal. Very full-bodied without being oppressive. The mouthfeel is velvety - like a sageleaf indeed. But that is the only point where I would think of sage in this beer.

(draught) Clear, deep-brown to black; brownish full head. Nose of sweet chocolate. Again some tobacco - and... melon. Sweet and dark malts in the taste. Indeed very German in style, sweet finish, not cloying. Bread-like. Light to medium bodied. Aftertaste gives a bit of liquorice, and again sweet chocolate. Nice, in style, though a German might have had a slightly more smoked character.

(draught) Very deep brown; dark-yellow head, stable and lacy. Very little nose, disappointing. Burnt tobacco & chocolate; sweetish but not cloying. Virtually no bitterness. Well-bodied, but much thinner texture. Alcohol remains well-hidden. This is disappointing, most of the Wynkoop range I had. What were they thinking of? Even for a brown ale, 8+ % ought to account for something.

Full name is FAEN gruit! (draught) Fully hazy grey-amber. Slim ring of foam (logical with gruitbier). Peppery, ginger and I really can smell the bog-myrtle. Rosemary - not really, and I have no idea how yarrowroot is supposed to smell. Taste is ginger and medicinal, herbal, spicy - but not off-putting in any way. The spices and all seem to give it a mouthfeel that appears thicker than it really is. Certainly not thin or watery, but not really full-bodied neither. Leaves no spicy aftertaste, strangely. Very interesting - but it will never be a session beer, unless for medieval "poorters"?

(cask) Slightly hazy dark gold. Flimsy white head, reasonably stable. very fruity nose (exotic fruit as passion) and yeasty - smelling like green beer. Well-bitter taste with both noble and bitter hops. Enough malts underneath to support, without sweetening. Well-bodied. Aftertaste turns out malt-sweet. Nice one. But Imperial?

(cask) I wonder if they know "dubbele gersten" is a long-disappeared Antwerpen style? Cloudy orange-amber colour; slim ring of white foam. Fruity, estery smell - orange marmalade. Very fruity and yeasty, nearly kumquat flavour, maybe less bitter. Well-bodied. Aftertaste is somehow thinner. Strange beer. I wonder what their exact aim was. If it really is the historical dubbele gersten, I'm no judge as it went out when I was about 8...
