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.

Draught Copper golden, clear beer under a small white rim. Very sweet, ultra malty nose, and an impression of some halogen. Maltbomb, breakfast cereals, pineapple ester. Very slick, almost sticky, oily texture. Decent, nothing more.

Draught On draught equivalent of gushing to huge off-white head over coppery-golden beer. Spicy nose, peppery, yeasty. Huge head hampering nasal detection but I still find greenery and young leaves. Finishing bitterish-toasted after sweeter, malty main flavour. Light to medium bodied, making it quite drinkable. Nice Keller, inciting a second one.

Draught Yellow, thick head, stable, over light golden beer. Some smoke, sulphur - if very restrained; smoked pineapple. Smoked, Rauchmalz, and finishing sweet. Alcohol comes in at the finish, which makes it sweeter even. Pineapple ester. Bit fiery MF, and dangerously drinkable. Particular, if not unheard of. Quite reminiscent to me of the pineapple smoked for De Koninck Black Smoke restaurant.

Small yellowish head, stable, over clear coppery beer. Honey, alcohol, spirit, some aldehyde. Fusely as few, again aldehyde. Honey as well, esters, and definitely sweet in the end. Alcoholheat, fiery, sticky. Too heavy on the alcohol for my taste, as it turns the beer aggressive IMHO.

Small if stable russet-cream head over jet-black beer. Oxydation in the best way, alcohol & fusels, nutty, chocolate, blue cheese, and indeed fortified wine, winebrand. Sourish first impression, then all the rich notes of the Madeira, chocolate, (dried) red fruit, dried nuts. Finish has slightly burning roast - aged, brown-rimmed wine. Rich, voluptuous, chewy yet smooth. Good carbonation. Truly excellent!

Small snowwhite head over cold-hazed light golden beer. Spicy, bit dusty pale malts. Very dry nutty flavour, dried herbs & spices. Falling away in time but not ending empty. Bittery hoppy finish, EU hops. Light body, light carbonation, bit gristslick. Quite decent Pilsener. However, I still cannot place the 'Italian' reference. Unless chauvinism, as it would fit perfectly into German Pilsener category.

Huge dense yellow head over clear, metallic golden beer with a chromate sheen. End of bottle solid deposit. Passion fruit juice, as in a yoghurt. Faintly sourish smelling, with a very fruity aroma. Dry-ish initial flavour, the passionf fruit and ending fairly (fruit)sweet. Quite slick, on the edge of stick. Mild carbonation. Amusing, pleasing fruitbeer.
