For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Backlog March 2008. Bottle. Golden body under a small white head. Aroma feels like very sweet malt. Taste is actually very sweet malt with a distinct alcohol sting. Medium body and sweet malty aftertaste. Not very impressive.

Backlog March 2008. Bottle. Reddish amber body under a big, foamy off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, citric hops and alcohol. Taste is very sweet and malty with caramel, some alcohol and rather bitter. Balanced in body but otherwise I feel this beer is a bit messy with just a lot of everything. Too sweet, too boozy and bitterness out of balance.

Bottle @ Home as Skoiar 7,5%. Clear golden body without any head. Both aroma and taste is rather straight forward, clean and refreshing. Moderate sweet, mild acidity, mix of fresh and ripe apple, no off flavors. Nice and easy, pleasant one. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Einar Sin on 09 Apr 2023 at 18:27 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5. Original review text: Bottle. Practically clear pale golden body with moderate carbonation and no head. Nice, light, clean, fresh apple aroma with a hint of moderate acidity. Taste is refreshing and clean with young apple flavor. A fine mix of green, yellow and pink apples with a slightly acidic touch. Quite straight forward but well balanced without any yeast, sulphite or any off flavors. Medium body and same aftertaste all the way. Nothing extraordinary really, but sure a nice and fresh thirst quencher to be enjoyed in most occasions with or without any food.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. This was super interesting to taste, would love to repeat this rather unusually beer. Sweet caramel malt, candy, vinegar, fruity and bitterness. An exiting experiment indeed, not just made for the sake of making experiment but clearly with a plan. Some kind of sour, but still so different. The acidic vinegar seems to play in the background of a much sweeter beer and the result is totally different from all other sours I have tasted.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. Unclear golden body under a big head. Medium sweet, moderate oak, moderate hops, a bit floral and a light funky hint. Quite nice, but somehow I was expecting a bit more from this package.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. Almost clear amber body under a solid, big tan head. Mild and delicate aroma, malt, caramel, hint of acidic berries, Belgium yeast and mild wood. Taste like aroma, not strong and overwhelming but delicate and well-integrated. Not very typical Rodenbach style. Actually it becomes more and more complex for each sip, this was really nice.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. Dark brown body under a small beige head. Sweet and malty, mild roast, chocolate, dry fruit, caramel, coffee, mild oak and warming alcohol. Nice and tasty pastry stout that avoids the silliness from the extreme adjunct versions. Nice.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. Amber body under a big, foamy head. Aroma of malt, caramel, ripe berries and Belgium yeast. Taste is smooth and complex, very typical classic Belgium dubbel and quad. Sweet malt with caramel, slightly acid berries, and Belgium spicy yeast. Notes of candy. Nice and vinous.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. 2023 edition. Almost clear golden under a moderate sized head. Aroma is funky and acidic. Taste is funky and acidic as well with complexity and high drinkability. Like a fine, classic geuze in general.
