Bottle. Golden pour. Aroma of sweet herbs, yeast, malt and orange. Taste of bitter nettle, yeast, orange zest and some malt. Weird.

Strong golden ale by this new microbrewery that has already gained considerable commercial success in the early days of their existence. Steinie bottle from Geers. Egg-white, moussy, thick head lacing in shreds over an initially near-clear, apricot blonde beer with very ‘stormy’, champagne-like sparkling and ochre-ish edges, more misty with sediment as expected. Aroma of chewing gum, green banana, quite strong and off-putting DMS (spoiling cabbage), white bread slices, potato soup, sourdough, apple peel, pineapple. Sweetish banana ester in the onset with notes of green pear and raw pineapple, sourish touch accentuated by very strong, minerally carbonation; cereally and thinly bready malt body with a touch of residual ‘white’ sugariness, leading to a slightly more bready finish (yeast) with camomile-like floral hop accent, yet only very mildly bittering and followed by a faint dash of coriander spiciness, light background phenols and a glow of white rum-like alcohol. Your middle-of-the-road Belgian tripel, very accessible but lacking in flavour depth and not even entirely free of flaws. Unnecessary at best, but the average Belgian beer consumer will surely buy this.

Belgian Hefeweizen (which still sounds a bit odd to me) made for a commissioner in Kortrijk, tasted from a bottle at Just Beer. Thick, densely moussy and creamy, stable, eggshell-white, closed, wheat-enhanced head over lightly hazy, pale straw blonde beer with greenish hue. Aroma of dry grass, bread crumbs, banana milkshake, raw wheat flour, clove-like spicy phenols, chewing gum, plaster, baking powder and something very vaguely meaty (proteins). Sweetish baked banana, cooked apple and stewed pear fruitiness in the onset, soured by quite intense, sharply stinging overcarbonation for this style, slick cereally, 'flour-like' wheatiness but a bit on the thinnish side perhaps; outspoken spicy phenols retronasally, floral hop bitterish touch yet ending a tad watery, with lingering banana ester. Not a bad effort at all, but compared with the standard Bavarian Weissbiere, a bit too thin and grainy.

Medium to good white head over veiled orange-golden beer. Spicy nose, peppery, toasted malts, bit 'hot'. Toasted to just-not-bitterness, human sweat, again 'hot' malts. Spicy character lasts throughout. Warming up, more and more yeasty features, and slightly more outspoken bitterness, again mainly toasted. Bit fiery MF, good carbonation, slick - I seem to get wheatslickness again. It's not bad, it's - superfluous?

Very thick, huge, lacey snowwhite head over hazy yellow beer with Grünstich. Bit soapy nose, citrus, and, I'm quite sure, coriander. Gingery and peppery as well. Coriandersoup in the worst tradition. Fain spicy bitterness, light wheatacidity underneath. Fizzy, wheatslickness, light body. Hopeless.
