initially pine and grapefruity aroma, not that intense, followed by a "burnt" hoppy aroma i sometime find in NEIPA's and a tiny bit of exotic fruits.The pine and grapefruit is lovely, i wish there was more of it.
Flavor is really good. solid pine and grapefruit hops with a tiny bit of a licorice like note and then a good full bodied malty base. all in all a tiny bit mild in the flavor - not that powerful - but really well balanced and fullbodied. as it warms up the exotic fruits gets more noticable, pineapple, peaches and the grapefruit and pine goes to the ending, which is great. One of those beers that goes down fast.

aroma is citrus fruits, juicy non-sweet hops, fainter herbal hops, a really very hoppy very non-cloying non-sweet hoppy aroma, very refreshing, quenching.
flavor is a lot of grapefruit, clementines and not so swet oranges, there is a malty base but it is a little thin and sort of messy with herbal and nutty notes. water treatment is watery rather than crisp. end is reasonably hopped with sweet exotic fruity notes.

very dark almost black. arge slightly fizzy brown head that seems to grow smaller a bit faster than a really smooth head would.
aroma of chocolate cake witt toffee , or a toffee chocolate ice cream, roasted malts and coffee. very nice dessert like aroma, but you can still sense the roasted malts and coffee notes. well blended, ronded. balanced even though very dessert like. low on bitter caramel. aroma a bit like toblerone perhaps.
flavor is bourbon, roasted malts, coffee, honey, chocolate, bite from the booze. really good flavor also, balanced, very very sweet - but it somehow manages to hold that sweetness well. some of the sweetness is from the bourbon. good sipper dessert beer, but i think most of us will drink this slowly bc of the very sweet nature of the brew.

quite strong hoppy aroma. initially pine and grapefruit but very fast followed by a lot of tropical fruits, peaches, pineapple and the like. Aroma has a herbal feel.
flavor is very exotic fruity with juicy components on a neutral but full bodied base, the entire beer feels levelled with its alc. percentage, balanced.
Pinball (15907) reviewed Nebulosa Hazy Pilsner from To Øl 7 months ago
Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
slightly hazy yellow, white to slightly offwhite head, creamy, soft.
a lot of malts in the aroma. pilsener malts, also a lingering slightly citrussy note or fruity note - a bit similar to what you might find in a dry german hefeweizen.
flavor is dry malty, very slightly grassy. not many off flavors, a pretty solid pilsener. full bodied, flavorful. while it is super straight and full bodied it also have many very fine nuances that makes it even more interesting. As it warms up it gets slightly more grassy - this does not seem to be a problem.

Føtex 30dkk/75cl. nice price
light red amber, beige head.
flowery perfumey dried dark fruty aroma. i would blind guess this aroma to grimbergen.
Flavor is dried dark fruits, perfumey flowery notes, faint alc. taste, but alc. also adds body so it's not as bad as it could be. In a way almost have some barley wine qualities.
for a quad it's a bit perfumey and not very yeasty. tastes a bit like when danish breweries tries to make a quad and fails.
overall a decent booze-bomb but not top of the line from belgium.
At the low price, it is value for money.

Bottle from Meny.
Best before 01. jul 26
batch 1571 08:01
hissing from cap when opening and spilled over a bit when opened. Unusual infected beer like behavior for a fullers.
Flowery hoppy aroma, slighlty herbal, mineral watery malty base , in total a flowery well hopped beer which is very british, aroma hints something tasty and quenching that will go down easily.
flavor is very bitter, very herbal, very hoppy - quite extremely hopped for a london IPA, tastes like an ESB only more flowery hops. You are not in doubt this is an IPA. With this intensity i would've guess american, using european hops. Perfect match with the beer culture in london - low ABV, high drinkability and still tons and tons of flavor. I feel like beer snacks now..
