Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Dutchdrebus and Niels. Murky dark orange to brownish color, virtually no head. Smell and taste sweetness, glue, alcohol, overripe mango or melon. Taste is actually decent enough, itβs a bit similar to a quadrupel but it lacks a balanced aroma. Medium body and decent carbonation.

Hazy to clody somewhat murky light brown amber colour, small frothy beige head, dissipates quickly to a thin layer, not much lacing. Aroma sweet malty, caramel, toffee, brown sugar, vinous. Taste medium sweet, slightly bitter, caramel, hint of cloves. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Finish light sweetbitter, malty and earthy notes. Quite some sediments in the bottle, like most brews of Berging. This one lacks a bit of body which makes it a kind of lightweight dubbel.

Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow to light orange color, small off-white head. Smell and taste malts, yeast, lightly zesty, some hops, a hint of banana and some sweetness. Average body and carbonation. Meh, I donβt really like it but perhaps itβs just not my kind of beer.

Cloudy light brown colour, reminds me of apple juice, floating particles, small foamy off-white head, sizzles down quickly, thin layer. Aroma malty, bread, apple, tart, barnyard, grassy hops, citrus. Taste medium bitter, slightly sweet and sour. Medium body, oily texture, prickly on the tongue, lively carbonation, finish medium bitter, some acidic notes. Meh.

Cloudy pale amber colourwith floating particles, huge creamy off-white head, recedes slowly to a thick layer, good lacing. Aroma, grass, citrus, bit basement, bread. Taste mild medium bitter, slightly sweet, malty, grain, grass. Medium body, oily texture, lively carbonation, mild sweetbitter finish. Not bad but rather one-dimensional pale ale.

Bottle. Murky brown with fast disappearing white head. Rye bread, puke, brown sugar, cooked vegetables and some unripe bitter green vegetables. Quite sweet with bad bitter finish. Full bodied with low carbonation. Horrible. I donβt know what the picture is that someone uploaded with the beer, but itβs much better than the actual beer...

Bottle from het Biermoment, BB 12-2015, large sample. Hazy golden to orange color, huge frothy off-white head. Aroma is slight fruity, flowery, bit grassy, spicy, bit cheesy even. Saisonesque, but could have a Bretty hint as well, probably unintentional? Soft to medium bitter in taste, slight dry, bit cheesy again. Also fruit like mango and peach. Interesting to try these kinds of beers, as there is no real clue what to expect up front. Basically, it feels like a regular, bit more hoppy, belgian blonde. But a slight funky touch gives that extra edge, which makes it more interesting. Again, dont know if thats intentional, but at least it is appreciated :-)

Bottle. Light amber. Some caramel and herbal bitterness. Quite light and unremarkable. Itβs not really bad, but boring and bland. Meh.
