Typical fully hazy orange, but shine more towards orange than to green; slim white head, lacey. Nose with wheat, touch of alcohol and whiskey malt. Taste is coriander and coriander agian, finishes with sweet-citrus notes. Medium-bodied. Unless served ice-cold, very little refreshing qualities. Bweeuh. Superfluous.

Cloudy copper colour with a thin off-white head. Aroma of bananas, yeast, ripe fruits, subtle spices and some malt. Medium-bodied; Spicey (nutmeg/cloves) initial flavour with yeast and banana at the back-end. Aftertaste shows sweetness and spiceyness but combines nicely. Overall, a nice treat, fairly good, but could use some more complexities. Bottle date (Best until) 09-October-2005. I was lucky enough to sample this 33 cL bottle from my sister's fiance, which he got from Belgium! I sampled this beer on 27-November-2003.

Bottled. Cloudy yellow. Stronger aroma of corander, cloves and orange peels. Sweet and rounded, firmly malty with notes of vanilla. Both flavourful and refreshing. Can Interbrew really brew a beer this brilliant?

Dull hazy amber; thin white head, fast gone. Nose with crystal malt, chocolate milk powder, soapy. Faint malt taste. A hint as from hoppiness starts, only to die immediately, as petrified by its own boldness - imagine we might experience some taste... Bit grassy finish (I'm really trying hard). Rather light to medium bodied. Honestly, even two palate cleansers don't yield any hitherho undetected flavours. THEY have more taste. BO-ORING. Don't try to tell me historic DAS ale not-tasted like this.

Amber coluured with a lot of sediments. Rich head. Yeasty aroma with a little bit of citrus. The flavour is fruity and quite sweet with too much alcohol. If I had a cellar I would surely use it for year or two.

Cloudy golden color; giant rocky head. Very nice aroma, malty, sweet; cookies; brown sugar; coriander. Very good mouthfeel, like a Tripel with some more malt and light liquorice; spices (coriander and orange peel); a bit carbonic-aggressive. Long final, quite aromatic and well balanced.

Cloudy blond beer; giant creamy head. Pleasant malty and spicy aroma (coriander); dry. Dry and spicy taste as well, very well balanced; some malt; correct bitterness at the end, quite long. I appreciate it mostly for its harmony.

Unclear amber colour with bubbly head. Strong yeast aroma of banana, the orange peel also very apparent. There is a pine tree aftertaste from the hops. I like it, but nothing makes it stand out.
