Pours a clear lighter blonde. Medium sized white head of high-average stability. Scent is quite pronounced, smokey, yet fresh, wheat, not too intense on the smoke (though definately very clear! ) , inviting thather than revolting (what I do personally have with rauchbier) . Taste is sharp, bit bitter, explosive smokeyness-with-wheat, never to intense on the smoke for me, (EVEN for me) . i really like the balance here. on paper, this would not be my type of beer at all, but I actually enjoy it ! Bitter, wheat, smokey finish. Drinkable like a lager. This is a pretty big surprise !

Pours unclear , warm blonde to lighter amber. Medium sized white head. Scent is medium mild crystal malts. Very low intensity on the pine character. Taste is full, fairly bitter but substantially sweet by the maltyness, especially for the style. Medium full body, which is surprising for the ABV and style. Medium carbonation. Easy drinker, and enjoyable !

free can from Horecabeurs.
Pours clear, pale blonde, pilsner-like look. Scent is very intense, sweet impression, malty, but perfumy, 'fruity', very recognizable NA. Taste is very sweet, but not cloying, it has some (unnatural) bitterness. Very fruit forward, but not by yeast or hops, like a 'added' flavor (not the direction of actual fruit / juice / puree ,... ) , very 'fake'. That being said, its not undrinkable, either. You just get what you can expect when a brewery like this makes an NA.

Pours dark pinkred, very small, pinkwhite head. Scent is loads of chery pits. Taste is fairly acetic, bit rubbery as well. Obviously cherry, but not as intense as expected. mild on wood and brett and such. Bit overpowered by les positive aroma's I'm afraid. Very low, nearly no carbo. Certainly not one of their better batches, but no drainpour either.

Pours light, very hazed yellow, wheat like. scent is quite nice, fine yet pronounced, for the style. Subtile fruityness, mild wheat, candy-necklace. Taste is Surprisingly bitter, quite sharp, intense. Fruity, grapes, citrus, green treefruit, but also slightly tropical like mango come to mind. Very candy-necklace like subtility. To the dry side, but not as dry as I expected. Very drinkable, and enjoyable !

Pours unclear blonde. Medium sized, stable but not super moussy white head. Scent is full, citric, dank. pronounced hops, mild on yeast, hidden on malts. Taste is full, slightly bitter. Very 'chewy' creamyness, not very smooth. Hops are very dank, citrussy only in second place. Bit rough around the edges, on what should be very smooth, or a lot more 'clean' if the OG style of Neipa was intended. Medium body, medium to medium high carbo. Not at all a bad beer, but sub average for brewery and beerstyle.
gave a cheers!

Pours slightly unclear amberblonde. Small white head. Scent is full, thicker, maltier aroma than usual, way less sharp. Modest 3f funk, hidden wood. Taste is full, very raw, bready, coockie dough, wheat, medium bitterness, modest acidity, medium intense brett. Quite unique, feels oh so rustic. I'm not sure. I like it more than I can imagine it being good based on what I perceive. it just somehow, really works for me.

Pours a darker pink. Scent immediately gives free what I feared, another acetic acid loaded batch. Taste follows. Fruity, yes, but nowhere near balanced or refined. One of the many beers including raspberries by them, from the years that these beers all to often were vinegar, rather than what great beers they used to be.
