Clear yellow blond beer, creamy dense white head, pretty stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: lots of diacetyl up front, ooh that’s really bad! Yoghurt, more butter, bah. MF: soft carbon, medium to light body. Taste: lots of diacetyl first, sweet touch, spicy, some coriander. Aftertaste: very spicy, lots of coriander, soapy, more diacetyl. Nope, either this was served way too young, or they got a bigger problem at the brewery.

Slightly cloudy reddish brown beer, small creamy beige head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: a bit vinous, malty, some caramel, grains, hay, banana peel, a bit oxidized. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: lovely, gentle roast up front, quite some alcohol, caramel, a bit yeasty, soft acidity, fruity, red fruits, strawberries. Aftertaste: a little bitter, metallic touch, caramel, vinous notes, some tannins. Would’ve guessed this as a red wine B.A. rather than a white wine, but ok.
