Tap at LNdB24. Citric perfume nose. Fresh, lovely. Hazy golden, white, light lace. Nice little fizzy citrus, flowery, stonefruit thing, quite bright and fresh.

Just a ring of bubbles on hazed orange-golden beer. Sweet fruit, overripe plums, mirabelles, pears, grains, almonds. Honey, with a bitter(ish) ending. Certain spices, and the above fruit, but as dried in the flavour. Slick to viscous, alcohoheat but as good as no alcoholthinning; feels a bit better carbonated than it looks. Special beer indeed.

Draught Rosy colour on a yellowish underbuild; small head. Rather neutral nose, if with not 100% natural fruitaromas, of unnamed fruit. Is supposed to be paw paw, halfway between mango and banana, but the taste is not only neither - it is hardly fruity. Light MF, bit slick, good carbonation. What was the idea? This is... just another beer, the fruit isn't helping at all.

Draught @ the brewpub Towering mango head, dense & stable over dark cola-coloured beer. Roasted notes, bit sweet, and -strange- a little bit like cola, but no trace of acidity suggested. Ripe banana. Dry, hardly any restsugars, almost ashy; bitterness appearing gradually. Bit of dark bread. Feels better bodied than it probably is, well-carbonated. Nice basic porter, not too sweet.

Little dark cream head over deep cola-coloured beer. Sweet nose, with Bourbon, vanilla, strong booze, and already giving a warm impression. Liquorice, even some Maillard and cooked into emptiness. Sweet syrup, bit of Bourbon and cola. Alcohol, thin texture, undercarbonated. The cooking overtime has wrecked itself. It's empty, Maillard to the exclusion of anything else.

Draught @ the brewpub Fluffy, whipped eggwhite-like head over hazy ochre-orange beer. Very outspoken C-hops' nose, bit peppery aroma, citrus in different forms (grapefruit, lime,...) Taste is a 'sweet version' of the nose, the citrusfruit + a bit of orange, watermelon and peach. Faint human sweat. Very light, well-carbonated. Very nice nose.

Small, reasonably stable white head over not very carbonated clear golden beer. White wine, peach, light citrus, white grape. Honey (very prominent), sweetened white wine, sweet juicy peach and grains, even other grains in the finish. Slick, light body, very much more carbonated on the mouth than visible. Nice, but a little bit more complexity could be achieved compared to some other IGA's.

Huge, lightly yellowish head over stoll, clear yellow-copper beer. Nice if short hoppy nose, with a lot of graindust, smells as in a grainloft. Again grains, dry, with a rainwater solution of hoppellets. Light, bit slick. Alcohol absence is very clear. OK. For a nablab.
