Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Some ugly murky looking swamp water, dayum! Aroma is fruity and a bit dank hops, tropical fruits, citrus, caramel malt, grapefruit, with a touch of pine. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and rather bitter with a little hop burn. Body is medium. A nice effort, but this lacks the refined flavour of a Vermont IPA and the roasty chocolate malt of a Black IPA.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is ripe fruits, caramel malt, hoppy notes, candied orange, syrup, grapefruit, resin. Flavour is syrupy sweet with a moderate bitterness. Body is medium to full. Malty and resinous with tons of candied/ripe fruits, sweet but alcohol well-hidden. Though you do get the impression this is a heavy bastard, probably the hefty body. Good one.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is roasted malt with fairly potent chillies, hazelnut, chocolate, a touch of coffee, and more chilli peppers. Flavour is medium sweet with some bitternes and a substantial chilli burn. Body is medium to full. Very nice chilli Stout, lots of madame jeanette as well as a firm roasty chocolate malt structure.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is appelstroop, caramel malt, oak, brett, overripe fruits, stewed pears, red wine, tart red berries, plums, vinous notes. Flavour is quite sweet with some tartness. Body is full. Not as refined as the regular Rioja Bommen, but very nice regardless. Like an oak-aged 'Imperial Flanders Red' meets Barley Wine.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is herbal and spicy with juniper, orange peel, coriander, a touch of vegetable, and lime. Flavour is medium sweet. Body is medium. Bit of an odd one, some nice juniper and citrus peel, yet some not so nice vegetable-ish notes. Drinkable novelty beer.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is fairly heavy cocoa with brown malt, chocolate, caramel, nuts, touch of liquorice, and syrupy notes. Flavour is sweet with a moderate bitterness. Body is medium and annoyingly overcarbonated. Can't say I'm impressed with this one, it's a bit shoddy coming from De Molen.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is strong peat with wood, roasted malt, ash, some iodine and a touch of coffee, with more permeating peat throughout. Flavour is medium sweet with a fairly bitter finish. Body is medium to full. Nicely peated and roasty, but there's some sharpness akin to iodine in the aroma. Thankfully the peat is more pronounced.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Dried fruits and roasted malt aroma with raisins, chocolate, figs, oak, bourbon, alcohol, vinous notes, and some sharp iodine. Flavour is medium sweet with a fairly bitter finish. Body is full. Pretty decent, some nice dried fruits, but needs to mellow out more, it's a bit sharp.

From tap at Bierfestival Groningen 2018. Aroms is lots of light smokey Lapsang tea, anise, very spicy, soft ginger, malt, light chili, reminds of 'christmas spices'. Flavour is medium sweet and light bitter. Body is above medium. It's a little spicier than I like, but I think it works fairly well in this beer.
