Clear amber with a lasting white head. Aroma of caramel and bready malt, with dates and other fruits, roses and a hint of alcohol. Sweet and malty flavour with some fruit, and a drying alcohol finish. A fine, if a little too sweet barley wine.

On tap @ de Wildeman. Hazy, reddish golden with a small, dense off-white head. Aroma is fruity like peaches and oranges together with spices. Flavor is fruity and caramel malt with some spices. Medium body, quite refreshing and easy to drink.

On tap at de Wildeman 06-06-09 Pours gold/light amber, a great bar but poor light makes this very difficult to be precise. It also has a white head. Aroma is slightly Pilsner like, with hops and some sweet malts. This tastes a touch sweet but nice bitterness to balance, it’s hoppy and clean tasting. A7 A4 F7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Tap @ in de Wildeman. Hazy orange color, medium head. Spicy aroma, some cinnamon, some orange and mandarin, bit malty. Slight malty and peppery taste, bit fruity, and again the cinnamon which is blended quite nicely in the beer. Served with 3 small apetizers, nice.

Tap@ Café Morshuis Albergen. Pale amber color, hazy. Wheat and citrus in the aroma. Wheaty sweetish flavor with citrus and traubenzucker. Some distant flowery hops, persisting and getting even stronger in the aftertaste. Not bad.

On tap at In de Wildeman. Slightly hazy amber orange colour, dense white head. Aroma of fruits, light grainy, some sort of spicy citrus, a bit odd. Flavour is sweet, fruity, light spicy, grainy light bitter finish. Tastes a lot like Helse Engel. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. OK.

tap at Arendsnest in Amsterdam - Pours lightly hazy amber. It smells malt and some citrus. The flavor is sweet and fruity with a dry, mildly hopped finish. IPA? I’d not have guessed that. It’s a tasty brew, but doesn’t have the hop load I’d expect from the style.

On tap at Arendsnest as Rafael Lentebier. Slightly hazy amber colour, thin white head. Aroma is sweet, honey, malts, fruity and floral. Flavour is soft, honey sweetness, malty, light alcoholic, soft bitter finish. Very smooth and creamy mouthfeel, medium to fullbodied. This was more like a sweet heller bock than an IPA to me. Really good beer.

2005 11.2 oz bottle from Liquid Solutions. Nose of plums, brown sugary sweetness, caramel, and a light vanilla note. Clear cherry amber with a small beige head. Flavor is fairly light prune notes, with alcohol, and light sweetness. Finish is alcohol warmth. Decent but I can get better much more cheaply.
