Sampled from 0.33 l bottle at Best Western Woerden. Very hazy, golden yellow with a white head. Sweetish, fruity-grassy and roasty aroma of lemon, coffee beans and straw. Slightly sweetish, moderately bitter, fruity-grassy and slightly roasty taste of green hops, coffee and some fresh grass, followed by a short, moderately bitter, rather dry and slightly grassy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay, quite strange actually.

330 ml bottle from Tribaun, bb 22.02.2018
Orange, milky, murky body, with a big, creamy, lacing, off-white head.
Aroma of citrus, banana, dried fruits, tropical fruits, apricots, orange juice, sweet berries, some oats.
Tastes similar, with some more wheat, spices, subtle pine.
Medium, a bit oily mouthfeel, with a quite fizzy carbonation.
Finishes medium bitter, very hoppy, medium juicy, a bit spicy, oaty, wheaty, citric, a bit piney.

New England style Hopfenweisse? Very interesting! Lots of juicy hops and smooth oats, combined with wheaty and yeasty notes, really diverse overall. Very quaffable stuff, successful experiment.

Bottle shared by SinH4 @ hotelroom tasting after Borefts Beer Festival Day 1. Hazy murky almost milky pale yellow color, average sized white to off-white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, over the top pine needles, (Dutch: "brandnetels"), slightly hops, vegetal coffee, weird herbal bitterness. Decent body, medium carbonation. Meh. 7-2-5-3-12.

330 ml bottle from a supermarket in Innsbruck, bb 11.03.2018
Deep amber, hazy body, with a big, creamy, lacing, light beige head.
Aroma of spices, bread, earth, caramel, flowers, some fruity hops.
Tastes similar, with some more herbal and citric notes.
Medium, a bit oily mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes bready, spicy, hoppy, yeasty, a bit earthy, citric, floral.

Nice one. Really quaffable and full bodied, with a good mix of bread, yeast, hops and sweet malt body. A bit more earthy and bready notes than usual, otherwise like an amber ale.

Draught at Tribaun, Innsbruck.
Golden, moderate hazy body, with a medium, creamy, yellowish head.
Aroma of spices, Brett, citrus, apples, wood, sour fruits, some sweet fruits.
Tastes quite similar, a bit less spicy, with some vanilla.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes medium sour, wooden, a bit dry, moderate sweet, citric, with unripe fruits.

Interesting. The nose is a bit too much on the spicy side for me, while the taste is really smooth, well balanced between Bretty, sour fruity, spicy, but also some lovely vanilla notes. Really fresh stuff, with a good amount of character.

Draught at Tribaun, Innsbruck.
Amber, hazy body, with a big, creamy, lacing, white head.
Aroma of grapefruit, passion fruit, smooth coffee, lactose.
Tastes similar, with the coffee a bit more prominent and some milky creaminess.
Medium, a bit creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes medium bitter, citric, fruity, milky, with coffee.

I was a bit sceptical at first, but this works surprisingly well. Fruity, crisp hops, creamy milk notes and well integrated coffee lead to a very refreshing, easy beer, that is also really aromatic for the low ABV. The balance is outstanding. Lovely, unique, little beer I could drink all day.

Tap at Taphouse. Mucus grey yellow, grey lace. Moldy Hispanic citrus, minerals, licorice - guess that's the coffee. Light body, dry chewy. Citric grassy bitterness, a bit yuzu zing, dry clay finish, citrus retronasal. A bit past it's prime?

Hazy apple juice looks. Aroma is grapefruit passion fruit, grapes, hints of flowers, some oatmeal and other bready things. Taste is fresh fruity sourness with much hoppy oily bitterness and sweet bready and fruity flavours. Well balanced. The only thing I dislike is the finish sadly. Leaves an oily bitter layer on your tongue that also clogs your throat a bit and there is something uncanny alcoholic and murky to this. Maybe a bit burnt? Maybe a bit too resin-y? Apart from that very drinkable, almost no carbonation present, very smooth and soothing on the tongue. Not alcoholic nor too heavy. Almost finished the bottle before finishing this review. Feels bad to leave the worst review (up to now) but I really cannot wrap my head around the finish. Rerate: got around the finish. I am convinced its a masterpiece. Old was 3.7

Tap. Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is coffee, maracuja, milky yeasts, some dough, lacto. Taste is coffee, hoppy, tiny malt body, milky yeasts, a bit tart and refreshing. Nice morning beer with its 3.6% indeed! Somehow spritzy carbonation. Works!
