Draught Bit fluffy white head; hazy yellow beer. Soapy. Citrus, in the way of a detergent bottle, if not disturbingly so. Perfumey too, as delicate leafy herbs. Serious lactic acid assault, yet not harsh. Lemonleaf. Apparently, the strange flavour is due to the lemongrass, which I failed to recognise. Light acidburn, acidthinning, not very carbonated in the end. Definitely not bad, but I keep with this faint impression of artificial.

Pours clear blonde, large white head of average-low stability. Bottle shows a very flaky, lot of yeast. Scent is mild on the typical BE yeast, but not absent. Mild on fruity american hops. Surprisingly pleasant, less boring than feared. Taste is sharp, quite bitter. Oily mouthfeel, protesting yeast it seems - yet I repeat, the aroma isn't as high as you'd expect. Perhaps (too) warm fermented, low aromatic yeast ? (Very) High carbonation. Mild on the hops, very mild on the malts. Chewy, a bit. Hiding the ABV very well - drinks like a 5-6 beer. Decent, I like the concept of going away from the overly sweet, banana-type BE blonde - but this in itself seems like it can benefit from a bit tweaking.

Draught Good dense lacey white head over fully hazy yellow beer, looking as pressed grapefruit. Very aromatic nose, fresh herbs, NW hops, exotic fruit and citrus(peel). Diluted citrusjuice (orange & grapefruit). Sweet and bitterish in acceptable balance. Grapefruitpeel flavour increases in time. Chewy for its modest ABV. Feels well-carbonated. Generally speaking a nice one.

Draught Very good, dense white head, lacey, over fully hazy yellow beer. At the onset, extremely inviting C-hops' nose with loads of grapefruit and exotic fruit & leaves. But after a while, asafoetida aroma kicks in, spoiling the fun. Asafoetida, sweet citrus, pastry roast/cakebottom, slightly burning feel. Feels quite well-bodied for its ABV. Good carbonatioin, very slick. Started fantastic, then the asafoetida/hopburn set in.

Draught Medium off-white head, retreating with lace; brown-golden beer, veiled with a mossy sheen. Autumn leaves, faint (old)hops, bit grainy, hint at brown candi sugar. Bitterish, floral-leafy, very light oxydation. Breakfast cereals with a wood, bitter extra, bit harsh even, oakgalls, husks. Slick, oily, not more than medium bodied, good carbonation. I was warned this beer had been oxydized in the tank. It was, but hardly disturbing, in contrast to the harsh bitterness.

Troebel geel bier met veel stevig schuim. Smaak is bitter hoppig en licht fruitig zoet met iets van citrus, wat gras en een beetje citrus. Gewoon een degelijk en smaakvol bier. Heel goed!

Draught Huge, bit fluffy and lacey head over veiled golden beer with a mossy sheen. Orange, citrus, bit catty hops, possible other grains. Unmistakably rye or other grains in the flavour, ryebread, straw, wood, bitter dough, but sweet in the finish. Slick, bit viscous almost. On the brink of undercarbonated. Not bad, but the problem I have with this beer is that it seems to pull in different directions at the same time.
