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.

Small whitish head, hazy dull chromate yellow beer, finely carbonated. Bit creamy nose. Honey, green leaves & herbs, pale malts & definitely wheat. Some citrus, mown grass, pale malts, greenmalt, germinating shoots. Light body, lively carbonation, wheatslick. Aftertaste has a nice mild bitterness. Plain, commercialy interesting.

Small white head over quite carbonated pale yellow beer. Booze, rum, sweet malts - and typical Van Steenberge yeast. Sweet, alcohol, grain, rum, pale malts, yeastfeatures, bit (sweet) diary, sultanas. Alcoholthinning and -burn. Quite slick to viscous/oily despite good carbonation. Not the best of the Van Steenberge barrel aged tries. Txs to Stef!

Pouring viscously black motor oil, sorry, beer. Utterly headless. -2 points for the d*mn*d hard wax. Cold coffee, waterplants, dark green leaves, bit earthy. Sweet if intense roast, black & sweet chocolated, fusels, booze. Again black coffee with some sugar. Full bodied, utterly oily, undercarbonated, alcoholheat. Creamy feel, immediately linked to the lactose. Quite good one. The story behind Nerdbrewing/South Plains/Molecule/Lilla remains a real taxation quagmire, no? Who's who?

Small pink head over reddish, faintly veiled terra cotta beer. Fruity, whiff of acetic acid, fruitacid; farmyard. Red fruit/berries, hint of pomegranate (?), cassis and mould. Lambic - Kestemont again! - very subdued, as if diluted with some very neutral beer or with Meerts? Acidthinning, light -burn, refreshing, fruity character. Typical Kestemont. And then Mannekes , OK, Vaccinium corymbosum of Amerikaanse blauwbes wordt vaak blauwe bes genoemd. Maar uw tekeningske klopt niet hè, DAT zijn cassis, Ribes nigrum.

Explosive gushing to as much beer on the table as in the glasses. Ending in a good yellowish head over some metallic orange beer. - 2 points. Pharmaceutical, Brasil nuts, wild yeasts, arachide. Old, oxydized nuts, oxydized malts, and Brettanomyces, of course. Paste made from... scorzanero? Of course overcarbonated. Slick, medium bodied. Bretts as an infection, I fear. Txs to Stef!

Slow gushing to huge, white head over hazy yellow beer. Bretts jumping out of the glass, floormop variety, pickles, Polish vegetable preserves. Again Bretts & pickled vegetables. Not much else, maybe some pineapple, bit pharmaceutical. Light body, very well-carbonated, slick but fresh seen the acidity. Too bad for the Nectarons, but they are inconspicous. If you base your beer on the Bretts only, it often turns out pretty empty. As is here the case.

Small head, fast disappearing over fully hazy yellow beer, opaque. Asafoetida, dry herbs, yeast, other grains. Faint hint at caramel. Buttermilk, lunaria. Bitterish, fresh vegetables and exotic fruit - starfruit, guave, longan. Rootspices, vegetable leaf. Quite slick & creamy - the other grains are active. Good carbonation, alleviating the hopoil stickyness. The more hops - the more malts needed for balance - often dulling the overall flavour: as here.
