Small yellow head over veiled orangeish amber beer. Herbs and malts. The latter slightly toasted, partly cookie malt. Sweetish, candi sugar. Bit fruity esters, as peach and pear, fruitdrops. Bitter first oral impression, herbal and hoppy. Malts underneath strong enough, bready. Bit peppery finish and aftertaste. Unfortunately, bitterness is a bit crude, leafy. Medium bodied at best, thinnish finish, acquiring an almondy streak. Good carbonation. There's plenty Spéciale Belges with more refinement. Still, not bad. Thanks to Stef!

33cl bottle at home (11 VII 2021), as Vliet Dubbel. A reddish gloomed 6.5 ABV brew with brown unclear body and a white to beige frothy head. This rock candy sugared Belgian dubbel from Huisbrouwerij De Vliet has some offtune malt and sweet features, faint hints of oxblood and liquorice. There is some dark wood in there as well. The nose is nothing special though, with yeast and earthy flavours adding to the traditional Belgian beer experience. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with light carbonation, semi-sweet and hinting at few plums, fig, prunes and other fruits. The palate is not overly sweet, with features of cheap sugar, diet coke and discounter chocolate bars. The ending has different spices, ranging from ginger, black pepper and floral herbs.

Bottled. An unclear yellow beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of straw, fruits, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, fruits, and alcohol, leading to a dry finish.

One of two spelt beers (a strong one and this more sessionable one) made by this ‘home brewery’ gone commercial a few years ago. Steinie bottle from Drinkshall Geenen in Balen. Tick, frothy and pillowy, snow white, cobweb-lacing, stable head, lightly hazy pale golden robe with vague apricot tinge. Aroma of banana peel, white bread, melting margarine, green apple, sweetclover, hard pear, streaw, soggy chicken food, soap, hint raw celeriac. Crisp onset, fruity banana, pear and green apple notes, very light bubblegummy touch, fizzy yet nowhere harshly stinging carbonation; soft fluffy, doughy malt sweetish middle with indeed a soapy and dry-grainy aspect clearly coming from the spelt. Quite pronounced minerally side aspects accompany this malty, grainy and ‘green-fruity’ profile, almost to a point of vague saltiness in the end; meanwhile, a grassy and floral hoppiness develops, providing mild but perfectly balancing bitterness (it does not need much more for a Belgian blonde since this one is not too sweet to begin with, contrary to many others in this style). Technically perfectly executed, very well-balanced, quenching, soft and pleasant Belgian blonde ale, better than expected and better than average in this – let’s be frank – boring and overly exposed style.

Bottle. Blonde. Pear and a hint of citrus in the aroma. Malty yet dry flavor with citric, yeasty and pear notes. Short, slightly metallic aftertaste. Not bad.

Bottle @ home. Clear golden color, huge sized white head. Smell and taste wheat, lightly malts, slightly a citrussy hint and a bit hayish perhaps. Slightly citrussy bitter and lightly sweet. Average to decent body and carbonation. Ok beer.
