Sehr malziger und süßer Antrunk, ab dem Mittelteil würzig, aber nicht übermäßig. Alkoholische Noten sind dabei deutlich erkennbar, stören aber nur wenig. Säuerlich und etwas herb ist das Bier zur selben Zeit, im Nachgeschmack wird es noch einmal würzig und fast schon künstlich süß. Test vom 8.5.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,10,8,9,9,9 - 8,90

Malzig-fruchtiger, darunter klebrig-süßer Geruch. Der erste Schluck kommt dann aber deutlich milder daher, als der Geruch erahnen lässt. Herber, nur leicht malziger Antrunk mit fruchtigem, aber nicht weiter geführten Ansatz. Würzig-herber Mittelteil, der sich im Nachgeschmack vorführt. Süßer Abgang. Könnte fülliger sein. Test vom 8.5.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,9,9,10,9,9 - 9,05

Bottle, 7% Very fruity, slightly rough and yeasty aroma. Dark golden colour, small white head. Sweet, fruity flavour, also quite yeasty. OK bitterness in the finish. Actually well-balanced, though by no means spectacular.

Can. (as HJ Natuurzuiver Bier) Pours a clear, a bit pale golden with a quite lively carbonation and a nice, dense white head. It diminishes a rather quickly, but leaves some lacings. Quite clean but weak aroma with malt, hops and some fruit, both peach and yellow apples. Fruity flavor, a bit too fruity in my opinion, with malt, hay and grain in the background. Thin to medium body and a slightly fruity and bitter finish with a tiny metallic note as well. A decent and quite refreshing pilsner. (070405)

Can. Clear, a little bit dark golden body with a dense white head. A little caramel malt aroma. Flavor is sweet malty, some kind of metallic bitterness and a bit fruity. Not much of a beer.
re-rated from tap as Traditioneel Natuurzuiver Bier. Pale golden with a big white head. Aroma is grain and apple. Refreshin, quite fruity with a hint of fresh apple. A better than average pilsner.
