A very dark red beer with a light brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of yeast. The flavor is acidic, malty, rather sweet, and very yeasty. The mouthfeel is watery. A typical Dutch microbrew.

Extremely cloudy nutbrown color, short creamy head. Sour yeasty aroma, banana, strawberry. Creamy yoghurt taste. Very lactic also. I was more thinking of a strawberry shake than a beer...

Enormous, hyper-dense yellow/orange head, grows instead of collapsing for some time. Hazy, dark-orange beer. Nose of apricots, wheat, orangezest and spoiled milk. Coriander, too. Head is predictably very bitter. Beer is bitter enough, again remindful of orangezest, rather than hops. A trace of candisugar too, even some sweetness. Very dry, alcoholburn finally betrays the alcoholcontent. Buttery mouthfeel. Very long, fruity but dry aftertaste. As Per said, dangerously quaffable - and that à ratio of 0.5 litres...

Pale yellow, a bit hazy. Beautiful dense white head, as whipped cream, going down lacy. Nose with grain, wheat, white candi sugar (? - isn't added says the lable). Very dry - sugar again! Peppery, bitterish Belgian-type hops (? - Hallertau, they say...) After some time, malt fills in with a certain sweetness. Dense, full mouthfeel. Surprising for a 5.7% beer. Blind, I would reckon this a Belgian tripel. I keep tasting and feeling white candi sugar, and a harsh bite I would normally connect with Challenger or Target... Strange. But undoubtedly very professionaly brewed.

Orange-hazy, slight greenish shine. White head, diminishing to a half cm thickness. Nose of wheat, yeast, spicy, citruspeel. Bitterish-wheat, with citrussy notes dominates an underlying sweetness. Estery - maybe a bit of cloves in the finish. Flowery quality. Refreshing, light to medium-bodied. Pappy mouthfeel, probably due to the wheat. I find as much from a German Hefeweizen as from a Belgian wit in this beer. It misses the cloves/banana from the Germans, and the coriander from the Belgians. And it ain't the worse for it.

Tap, Jan Primus. Cloudy orange color, with a big head frothy head. Yeasty aroma, spicy and grainy. Taste is a bit sour yeasty, but also quite refreshing. Bitter palate, still refreshing. Another type of springbock, which i had not tasted before. Perhaps even a bit german wheat like.

Cloudy orange color, with an initially huge frothy head. Spicy, apricot aroma, orange peel. Sweet taste, bit sharp, hardly any alcohol noticed. Good palate. The best De Prael brew i've had until now.

Cloudy yellow beige color. Aroma of spices and yeast. Typical belgian white taste, refreshing, citrus. But this one is not as refreshing as some others, but more yeasty. Overall an average belgian white.
