Winter ale with stable, snow white, sticky head and hazy amber colour with ochre glow. Aroma of orange peel, sweet peppermints, gingerbread, mango, cinnamon. Sweet spicy taste (liquorice, mint, aniseed) as expected from the aroma, candied orange, low carbonation resulting in a somewhat ’flat’ mouthfeel, caramelly malt base, finishing faintly flowery hoppy, not bitter, a bit bland, ingloriously fading away without grande finale. Something is missing here - more hops please!

First beer of this brewery, since 2008. Snow white, irregular, quite stable head, yellowish ochre blonde colour, cloudy. Strong orange aroma, some peach, wheaty sourishness, pineapple, white bread, straw, grass; soft sweetish taste with fresh orange touch, smooth sweetish maltiness, medium carbonation, vague presence of wheaty sourness, light spicy yeastiness, finish sweetish with only a presumtion of grassy hoppiness, no real bitterness (enough).

Tripel from the Meetjesland region since 2009, with thin, cream white head and cloudy peach blonde colour. Aroma dominated by a sweet-spicy cinnamon effect, pear, grass, bread, ’speculaas’, vanilla, apple sauce, field flowers. Sweet fruity taste of pear and apricot, gingerbread-like cinnamon quickly appearing, some yeasty spiciness, caramel malt base with light nutty flavour, finish unfortunately with badly hidden, nearly acerb alcohol.

Heavy tripel from this young ’Meetjeslandic’ brewery, with a thick, creamy head and cloudy yellowish blonde colour. Bit sweaty, grainy aroma, bready yeast, straw, cooked potato, unripe fruits, gin-like alcohol. Subdued fruitiness in the taste, apricots, soft mouthfeel, mellow maltiness, finish flowery hoppy, not really bitter but just a tad astringent with ’jenever’-like alcohol. A little bit too strong for what it pretends to be, I’m afraid.

330ml bottle. Clear, dark amber colour with huge, foamy, half-way lasting, off-white head, no lacings. Bready malty, fruity aroma, hints of peach, red berries, a yeasty/alcoholic/herbal twinge, dry hoppy overtones. Taste is sweet, bready malty extremely phenolic, fruity, biting and burning alcohol, malty finish has hints of sweet bread and almond biscuit. Conciliatory finish, nevertheless one of these sweet, phenolic, Belgian guck beers, if not in maximum abhorrent execution - this style is and remains a grab bag.
