0.15 l on tap at ’In de Wildeman’ courtesy of the brewer, thanks! Slightly hazy, red amber with a thin, frothy, tan head. Faint, sweetish-malty aroma of caramel, raisins, prunes and some nuts. Sweetish-malty taste of caramel, raisins, prunes, some molasses and some vegetables, followed by a short, slightly bitter finish. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, flat. Okay, not great.

Bottle from Biernavigatie, BB 01 2017, large sample. Clear golden color, medium frothy head. Aroma of grassy hop, caramel, bit bready malt, pine. Strong bitterness, pine, almost mouthpuckering. Bit one dimensional, but serves the purpose well. Not many Dutch DIPAs with such a strong american styled bitterness. Good.

(Draught at Jopen Proeflokaal, Amsterdam, 20 Feb 2016) Golden amber colour with dense, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of grapefruit, resin and pine needles. Malty, hoppy taste with grapefruit, resin, grainy malt and a generous citric, resiny bitterness. Almost full body, with balanced sweetness. Possibly a bit sharp and unbalanced, but quite tasty with a generous hop profile. Nice one.

33cl bottle at De Paas in The Hague. Pours a hazy orange, with a tall white head with OK retention. Tastes and smells like a dry-hopped Belgian pale ale, with notes of dry grass, yeast, bitter hops and bread. Crisp and refreshing, but none of the flavours stand out in any way.

Bottle, courtesy of Douberd, many thanks! Hazy orange color with huuge white head. Aroma is fruity-hoppy, then a fresh yeast spiciness, vineous, a bit phenolic, then bananas and other sweet tropical fruits, maybe also orange/citrus peel. Taste is spicy, sweetish-fruity, then the spices take over again, junipers, spruce and resin. Could be drier, but I like this take on it as well. Good and soothing stuff.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Joes and Dutchdrebus. Hazy light orange color, average sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, quite fruity, yeasty, orangepeel, decently bitter, light funk, not as dry as you’d expect from a sasison, but in the end I quite like it. Might not be a saison officially, but I like this. Nice beer.
