Clear golden colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have plenty of zesty orange and bergamot. Refreshing.

Dry stout flavoured with liquorice and sea salt, thanks Joeri for sharing! Pale greyish beige, creamy, mousy, opening head on a very dark chocolate brown beeer - blackish indeed but not quite, with ruddy-mahogany glow. Aroma of indeed (old dry) liquorice sticks upfront, nutmeg, 'koetjesreep', old herbes de Provençe, 'Haagse hopjes', dust, dry forest floor, hard caramel, bayleaf, old walnut shells, prunes, acorns. Dryish onset as befits a dry stout, some 'dry beef stock cube' umami but not so much that it becomes annoying and indeed a very slight pinch of salt somewhere, softish carb, full and oily, but also slightly powdery mouthfeel; nutshell- and hard caramel-like, dry malt profile, a bit dusty, low in sweetness but with a well-developed toasty bitterness accentuated by confident leafy hop bitterness, but also by the liquorice providing a dry-herbal accent (and appears much less strong than expected based on its dominating presence in the nose). Some bready yeastiness and additional spicy notes (bayleaf, nutmeg) appear in the end as well, but dry liquorice, almost salmiak-like in combination with the subtle yet structurally important salt, remains the main flavour that lasts after swallowing. Dry stout with a twist, could have been a tad more malty (even roasty) and less yeasty and therefore needs some cleaning up, with that liquorice giving an impression more akin to an old musty bag of herbes de Provençe than actual liquorice candy, which is a bit what I was hoping for. Not bad, though, and certainly an interesting beer.

Intended as a hybrid between wine and beer, this one is fermented with part beer wort and part Sauvignon Gris wine must - and fermentation has apparently been done by a kveik yeast and a champagne yeast. Thanks Joeri for sharing. Snow white, loosely knit, thinnish, open, dissipating head on a lightly hazy very pale straw blonde beer - actually hardly 'blonde' anymore and showing about the same hue as a Sauvignon Blanc wine. Aroma of indeed Sauvignon grape must and white wine, green gooseberries, cava that has been exposed to air for a day, raw cucumber, green apple peel, lemon zest, some unfortunate DMS (cooked broccoli), banana peel, grass, soap. Fruity onset, sweetish with very obvious white grape presence, hints of green apple and banana peel too, softish carb, slick and bit vinous, but very slender body; fruity, grapey sourishness underneath as in, indeed, white wine must, Sauvignon Gris but a sweeter, almost Riesling-like aspect as well, hintsof cooked rhubarb and raw cucumber, some pleasant minerality, fruit-sourish finish with some grape skin tannins adding a dryish touch but no hop bitterness. Very slender, lean beer, would be a highly elegant 'apéritif' if the DMS had not been there. Still, if this off-flavour can be eliminated, what you end up is indeed a quite sophisticated wine-beer-hybrid, though I had many more complex and memorable ones than this; in any case more wine-forward than many others, with a very 'repressed' beeriness. Still a very interesting offering from a brewery I haven't encountered in years - I had no idea they were doing this kind of experiments, something I would like to investigate further when given the opportunity.

0.33 l bottle from 'OnderNulPuntVijf', best before December 2021. Hazy, yellow with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity-floral aroma of pineapple, lemon peel and lychee. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, fairly fruity-floral and a little grassy taste of pineapple, lemon peel, lychee and some passion fruit, followed by a short, slightly bitter, a little grassy finish. Thin to medium body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty NAIPA, very refreshing.

Fairly hazy golden blond with a white head. Aroma of citrus, malt, wort and lighter grapefruit notes. Flavour is above light sweet and light to moderate bitter. Light bodied with light moderate carbonation.

Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een helder oranjekleurig bier met een volle witte schuimkraag welke snel weg ebt. Het heeft een fruitige wat citrus achtige geur. De smaak is moutig, citrus achtig en wat gistachtig.

33cl Fles van OnderNulPuntVijf. Troebelgele kleur, witte kraag. Ruikt naar citrus, grapefruit, wat boterig. Smaak volgt, iets boterig maar dat maakt wel dat het bier wat body heeft en romig is, citrus, citroen, wat grapefruit en iets harsig, degelijk bittere finish. Lichte body. Prima.

Bottle at home, dark amber beer, small head. Aroma is caramel, malt, grapefruit/citrus. Taste is the same, bitter, citrus, ok
