(Draught at In De Wildeman, Amsterdam, 30 July 2010) Golden colour with creamy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of dried fruit, pineapple and marzipan. Fruity, malty taste with dried fruit, pineapple, mango, candy sugar and a spicy finish with a generous bitterness. Almost full body, with solid malt sweetness. Some alcohol shining through. Very nice and tasty slow sipping beer.

Small yellowish head over bright orange beer, with some suspended yeast. Oppressive dull-grain nose, with a clear alcoholic streak. More alcoholic even in the mouth, liqueurish, burning flavour; white candi sugar, faint orangepeel - typical Huyghe, in fact. Burning MF, huge alcoholwarming, sharp, and a certain viscosity. Gad, this is Huyghe at its most horrific. And a pound to your penny, that the Jopen "brewer" is vehemently going to protest that it is totally HIS beer, HIS recipe, and that it’s going to be brewed any moment now in his chapel, etc.

30cl bottle. Decent white head. A little bit hazy blond colour. Lovely taste. The label has a picture of the church which is being turned into their brewpub/restaurant in November 2010. I’ll send in a pic...

As Rock’n’Roel, at RBESG 2010. Hazy orange with a small white head. Muddy yeast aroma with nuts. Sweet yeasty flavour finishing with a sudden chili attack. Not amused

Bottle from Slijterij Melger’s Wijn en Dranken, Haarlem. Poured a dark reddy bronze colour with a thinnish lingering tan head. Dark fruit and sweet malts to the fore in the nose. Flavour was pretty decent, gently warming, there was no great depth evident with the hops being a little muffled, but the sweetness was about right and there were certainly some likable qualities lurking here. Good effort.
