0.33l bottle from trade with Countbeer shared with Inbreak @ Hotel Room in Leiden. Wants out if the bottle! Almost a little gusher that the hotel room table had to pay the price of. It has a massive really fluffy, good looking and everlasting white foamy top that leaving some extreme lacings down the glass. The beer itself is nicely orange honey colored and cloudy in the glass. The nose has elements of yeast, honey, birch, a little fruity eastery almost banana sweetness and some green apples. Smells quite nice. It has a mild oily mouthfeel to it and a gentle average carbonation level. A good sweetness in the taste also the warming alcohol comes creeping in the aftertaste and swallow. There is a good yeasty profile here, and I get traces of almost peppery arugula and green pepper corn that has been soaked in booze and honey sweetness. Quite good IMO. Thanks for the bottle Kamiel! 28.09.2013

33 cl bottle @ home. Clear golden color. Big white head with good retention & lacing. Aroma’s: sweet fruit, sweet herbs, candy sugar. Retronasal there’s additional grain/malt, some fruit and herbal hops. Flavor is moderate bitter with hints of sweet fruit. Medium bodied. Finishes slightly dry, moderate bitter. OK beer, but hardly an IPA, and certainly not a USA IPA.

Standard bock beer. Sweet malt and with some mild bitterness. Body is flat. Not very good.

Bottle from trade with Countbeer, many thanks. Hayz orange color with medium white head. Malt, bitter hops, honey in aroma. Taste, sweet malt, banana, syrup, alcoholic bitterness in background. Sweet, alcoholic finish.

Clear amber colour, white dissipating head. Metallic aroma, caramel and malts. Sweet caramel flavour, quite metallic. Finish bitter roasted malts and caramel. Not really my cup of tea.

28.09.2013, 0,33l bottle shared with Palme @ hotel in Leiden:
Came right out of the bottle. Big creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly fruity, light malts, yeast, flowers, citrus, hay, leafs, citrus peel. Taste is slightly dry fruity, light malts, yeast, hay, flowers, dough, herbs, wet grain, weeds. Medium bitterness, slightly dry mouthfeel. Fair enough, a bit too much yeastieness.

On tap at In De Wildeman. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has lots of grassy hops with a bit of resin and an earthy grain backing. Flavor also has lots of grass with a strong earthy grain note and a hint of resin and tropical fruit in the finish.

Amsterdam. Bottle in my hotel room. Lightly hazy gold beer, big off white head. Nice light fruity hop nose. Light airy palate with minerally crispness. Very light sweet malt base supports decent light hops. Floral citrus - mellow orange, grapefruit with lesser tropical fruits. Touch of brett. Light crisp airy finish.
