The next beer might even be better. B.C."H." = British Cask "Head" - to be perceived as some disparate lonely looking bubbles, uncertain of their CO² content, and because of their scarcity, of undefinable colour. UFO's: Unspeakable Floating Obscenities MF: NO, that isn't it. That's mouthfeel, in civilized countries. I hereby solemny propose a law to be instated by all beergeeks, -amateurs, -lovers, -tasters, - enthusiasts that forthwith the use of the infernal spice, known as coriander, is forbidden for at least the five first years of brewing, and later only to be tolerated by explicit consent of minimum five different accredited beerorganisations. Infringements ought to be sanctioned by denouncement to the international beerpress and public drainpour of the offending brew.

6.3/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6.5 Texture 5 Overall 6
Small cream head, stable, over very deep dark brown beer. Wet dog combined with breadcrust, dark bread. Less wet dog in the mouth, but even more dark bread; dark grains, roast, melanoidins. And missing all the normal features of a classid Weizen. Very thin body (a wheat!), not very carbonated. Weird, putting it mildly. Given blind, we would never have guessed Weizen, Dunkel or other. Thin.

Shortlived off-white head over veiled orange-amber beer. Wormwood, mint, sage, verbena, lavender. Very aromatic aromas, on top of light-caramelly toast. Again the herbs (minus the mint), and some toasted malts. Faint sweet-bitter flavour as from orangepeel. Ironoxide. Slick, medium bodied, medium carbonation. Special, but not exactly mind-blowing. Bit pharmaceutical, not exactly inciting for another. Txs to Stef!

7/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 7
Small whitish head over hazy orangeish yellow beer. Hoparoma explosion upon opening the can; dry lupulin, very citrussy, bit catty. Dry, almost ashy initial flavour, followed by sweet malts, fruity, going over in, again fruity, bitterish flavours, mainly citruspeel. Quite carbonated, hopoilslick, some metallic bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice classic NEIPA. Txs to Stef!

5.9/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5.5 Texture 5 Overall 5.5
Small if resistant white head over clear pale golden beer. Dusty grains, wheatflour, bit grassy, grainstalks. Very light bitterness overlying neutral to soft-sweet malts. Bit of chewing gum. Quite carbonated, as masking a fundamental lack of flavour. Bit slick. Rather dull beer.

Small white head over clear metallic golden beer. Laurel, autumn leaves, bread, toast, grains. Bitterish flavour overlying pale & toasted, sweet-ish malts. Dryish flavour, straw. Light body, quite slick, medium carbonation. Very decent Helles!

6.9/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
Explosive gushing to very good, lacey, stable cream to mango head over fully hazy orange-brown beer. With the foamfontain, also explosion of fruity hopesters, rosewater, lunaria, lupulinbomb; pistacchio marzipan. Dry, fruity flavour but also a more chemical (in the best sense of the word) and woody dry-bitterness. Oxydized hops, lupulin, hopoils, citruspeel, rosewater. At least medium bodied, +/- overcarbonated, spritzy, chewy, and more than a tad sticky. Certainly not bad, if just under the real top-IPA treshold. Brauerei Gushwork? Purchased @ the brewery
