Sampled from bottle. Brownish color, average to medium sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, brown malts, some caramel and perhaps a hint of brown sugar in the distance with a hint of alcohol. Ok body and carbonation.

Spoko, troche alkoholowe jak na 7%, reszta w porzadku, sredniak

75 cl bottle, labeled as 7 ABV. Pours dark, yet clear, chocolate brown. Good white head. Smell is sweet, thick, very much leaves, spices, but very different than the usual x-mas beers. Taste is sharp, bit bitter, dark malts, notes of indeed, roasted bread. Weird ! Not sure how I like it, but due to the interesting taste, this is very drinkable. Its very thin in the mouth, a factor I think is a missed opportunity. The carbonation level is OK.

Organic blonde abbey beer, bought at a Bioplanet store near Ghent. Comes from a printed 33 cl bottle. Cloudy ’old gold’ colour with minuscule dead yeast bits floating, crowned by a frothy, creamy, thickly and broadly lacing, egg-white head. Aroma of crabapple, gooseberry, raw rhubarb (acetaldehyde!), yoghurt, rotting hay, young ’jenever’, unripe pear, raw cut potato, hints of fried egg, burning rubber (clearly DTMS!), old newspapers and dead grass. Crisp onset, restrainedly fruity, unripe Conférence pear, sourish berries and lots of Granny Smith apple, with a minerally ’sound’ to it, a bit chalky too; middle phase consists mainly of a slightly bready pale malt sweetishness with sourish, somewhat spicy yeast on top of it; finish shows persisting green apple sourishness along with ’Poire William’-like alcohol and some herbal, late and subtle hop bitterness. Has a ’full’ kind of feeling to it, but in all, it kind of feels like some artisanal, ’downtuned’ Duvel. Objectively speaking, this is an acceptable Wallonian blonde, but the acetaldehyde did bother me a bit.

at beerweekend de lambiekstoempers 2014 . Pours rather clear yellow . small white head . Smell is citrussy , slightly chemical . Taste is bitter / sour , very lemon-infused . Certainly unique and nice to drink , but I doubt this is natural .

(Bottle, Delirium Café, Brussels, 27 Oct 2013) Golden colour, hazy, with white head. Malty, fruity nose with grainy malt, tropical fruit, bread and hints of yeast. Malty, fruity taste with notes of bread, grain, peaches, dried pineapple and a spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Fresh and tasty Belgian blond. Quite nice.

33cl @ 9ième fête de la bière namuroise. Dorée, col blanc fin. Arôme est fruité et houblonné, léger bouquet rappelant la fleur d’oranger. Ce fruité domine le bouquet de manière agréable avec une petite pointe sucrée. Palais fruité aux notes douces presque mielleuses - orange. Le tout reste très belge avec ici une levure et un profil de bière qui n’est pas sans rappeler une version Binchoise bio. Pétillant moyen, sec et grains avec un profil malt typique des bières belges.
