Can. Clear golden, white head. Citrusy hops and a nice coffee/coffee grounds aroma. Sweet citrusy, malty flavour, discrete coffee that works fine in here.

Can. Black, tan head. Coffee, roasted malt amd dark choc aroma. Bittersweet flavour, caramely roast, some coffee. Sweet roasted finish.

Pours nearly black, medium sized, mocha colored head, medium to fairly good stability. Scent is weak, some roast, but not at all smooth, almost a metallic-like sharpness to it. Taste is sharp as well, roasty but to the burnt, ashy, metallis side rather than the creamy chocolateness one would enjoy. Thin, even at the current ABV, with medium high carbo. Not a great achievement here. The adjuncts gives a weird, plastic-like sidenote, that doesn't do the beer a great lot of goodness....

Pours unclear amber, fairly big white head. Scent is mildly spicy, both the pepper as well as the yeast - but not unbalanced or overpowering. Mild plain maltyness left. Taste is fairly exhausting, a bit sticky and overly yeasty to me (perhaps fermented a bit warm, but thats the whole idea of kveik) the pepper doesn't lift it up, in contrairy, it makes it even more exhausting. Not very sessionable, and as a degustation beer, it needs to be more interesting to me. Somewhat bitter, but that doesn't last too long. Malty, but nothing exceptionnal. Mouthfeel and body are medium, and so is my enthousiasm.

Light hazy orange/pinkish colour, white foam. Light tartness, notes of raspberry, a bit lemony, thin, easy drinkable, refreshing.

Can at home. Clear bright orange color, small white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, green hops, malt bitters. Not bad but not great either. Okay.

Philly sour with organically grown raspberries, the last of the - so far - regular Stroom beers I had to sample; can bought at Geers. Moussy, irregularly membrane-lacing, pink-tinged off-white, quite thick and stable head; near-clear, warm and deep orange-glowing amber robe with pink tinge and lively visible sparkling, turning deeper rosy-amber and cloudy with sediment. Aroma of clear sour and sweet red raspberries, tomato juice, milk going sour, fruit yoghurt, sweat, guava juice, watermelon, freshly cut cactus, dough, chalk. Crisp, tart onset but in a very lively, colourfully fruity way, teeming with sour raspberries straight from the bush, including both their fructose sweetness and citric acidity, the latter accentuated by a soft yoghurty lactic tartness from the Lachancea yeast (defining it as a Philly sour indeed); hints of sour tomato, rhubarb and green apple support the raspberry dominance through a smooth, slick cereally core, working towards a refreshingly citric finish in which the combination of Lachancea effects and raspberries acquires something almost tropical (pitaya, guava, watermelon - but all in the form of subtle hints). Some vague hoppiness is noticeable but very subtly so; drying yoghurty and fruity sourness remain key here, in a somewhat straightforward, but altogether tasty, vivid and very refreshing way, accompanied by a late and mild chalky touch. Lovely little fruit sour, in all, I wonder why I waited so long to tackle this one - but a hot summer day would probably have been a more suitable moment for this kind of beer than a dreary and gloomy winter day in mid-January.
