Bottle shared @ Camping Ratebeer. Clear orange color, decent sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, a hint of alcohol, slightly a hint if herbs or spices, a hint of wood indeed. Well, overall I’m not really impressed.

75 cl. bottle @ home. Procured from Delhaize. Hazy orange first, murky darker peach brown towards the end of the bottle, HUGE head that fills almost the whole glass, collapsing, fluffy white bubbles. Smells of esters, fusels, grain alcohol, chemical applesauce note, wash powder, dough. Lots of fusels, esters, bitter grains, rotting peach, chemical applesauce, aspirin, medicinal bitter, dough, bitter green leaves, burning boozy, grain alcohol. Very high carbonation. This is just awful like a high fermentation equivalent of malt liquor without any fun. This wasn’t cheap & made me feel like an alcoholic. This tastes like one of those Belgians where they just went for maximum ABV at the expense of everything, this represents the worst of Belgian brewing. Technically solid but this is just rubbish in a pretty bottle & the bucket suggest to put the bottle in an ice bucket, who does that? The booklet says that this kind of beer is high in ABV but easy to drink, seriously? This tastes like diluted cheap jenever & not beer, this isn’t easy to drink. I never particularly cared for Ben Vinken but before this, it was never personal. Awful. I stand 100 % by this review & I feel the need to underline that because he seems like one of those guys that sends you hate mail regarding your rating for his beer. Damn, I was hoping that the Belgian beer landscape to start moving past this kind of nonsense.

Budget ’pils’ on can for Delhaize, with a loosely structured, thin, snow white head and a pale golden blonde colour, cristal clear with limited sparkling; aroma weak, some acidity, malty sweetness, sweat, iron, grassy hops only vaguely detectable; taste rather thin and even a bit watery with a restrained grainy sweetness, aftertaste weak and thin, only very briefly hoppy. Quenches the thirst but that is about it, otherwise a totally forgettable standard lager without any specific personality trait - or simply put: utterly boring.

Bottle @ RBBSG, 2014. Thanks! Yellow orange colour, medium carbonation. Fruity aroma with malty notes. Oak, yeast and brett. Hoppy bitter finish. Not really sour. Decent.

Boutielle 75cl, ambrée, col fin beige. Arôme est boisé moyen, houblonné noble, mais sans plus, retrouve ici aussi ce profil savonneux de brett qui ’ajoute pas vraiment qcq chose en terme de caractère à la bière. Palais est haut en terme d’effervescence, boisé moyen, léger brett surtout en fin de bouche qui ici aussi donne ce léger profil abricot - brett. Ce dernier est trop marqué pour vraiment permettre au boisé de se créer sa vraie place. Un houblonné noble contribue au développement d’un léger citronné en guise d’amertume.
