One of those attempts by Belgian family brewers to connect with the new wave of IPAs in this country, since 2008. Snow white, creamy head, deep golden colour, aroma of pale malts, leafy hops, caramel, pear and some DMS (cooked cabbage); taste softly malty in onset, rounded, bit of caramel, quickly overpowered by a strong, citrussy and leafy hop bitterness, finish long and dry. I applaud all efforts made to make the Belgian public familiar with IPAs and this is no exception.

Medium offwhite head. Clear yellow body. Spicy metallic strawy aroma with waxy notes. Dryish mealy watery taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Fizzy mouthfeel, slightly sharp. Dryish spicy herbal aftertaste with boiled water and fruit notes. Nice, drinkable, not a standout. (0.33l draft at Heeren van Liedekercke.)

330ml bottle form (I think) Beers of Europe. Pours clear brown, thin off-white head. Light banana at first on the aroma, some spice and dark sugar. Tatse has more fruit, spice, yeast, candi sugar. Medium body, decent balance. Yeah, liked that one!

33cl bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - chestnut with an amber tinge. Good head. Nose - honey and general candy sugar sweetness. Taste - slightly grapey or appley but apart from that, there’s toffee and not much else. Palate - medium bodied with a sweet sugar texture in the middle and there’s a decently balanced finish. Overall - nice but slightly one-dimensional even if that dimension is good.

Den siste på Tap1 2014 fredag kveld: fatlagret stout med mye vanilje, rosin, sjokolade og litt solbær/bjørnebær. Stor munnfylde, naturligvis. Uhyre velbalansert, og det er nå på tide å gå hjem mens man ennå er noenlunde i balanse selv.

Donker bruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is licht zoet en rokig, bitter en droog. Blijft redelijk lang hangen.
