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.

Pink head leaving lace over deep ruby-red beer, veiled. Coriandersoup, and the 'soup' is to be taken litteraly (as tomatocream). Same in the flavour, but even more so. The fruit just hasn't a chance to come out. Not really thin bodied, some slickness - the soup again. The coriander onslaught ruins it. More fruit (and less of the infernal weed) might have balanced it.

Draught Whitish lace over veiled if bright reddish orange beer. Dried fruit & berries. Alternative kernels and herbs, ditto fruit. The same as above. There's a flavour, halfway red fruit and veggies. Rosehips, rhubarb, even tomato? Light acidthinning to very light body. Low carbonation. "Sour" is stretching it, and even 'fruity' is on the edge. Despite the rhubarb.

Draught No head left, deep red beer. Rainwater, wet dog, (red) fruit. Again wet dog, runny cheese and whafts of indeed, cassis. Light body, good carbonation. Way too demure.

Draught Overflowing, yellow lacey yellowish head over unclear yellow beer. Straw, fresh malts, even greenmalts, smelling as a malt loft. Bitter, hoppy, a bit of the malts from the nose... as to the fruit? Still searching. Medium bodied at least, slick, dry MF. Certainly not a bad beer, but the flavour doesn't match the name.

Draught Huge, yellow, dense head over bit Grünstich-yellow beer. Dry grainstalks & kernels, over classic C-hop aroma's. Dry grains & ditto hops; really so dry it makes one thirsty; intense hopflavours, yet balanced. Resin, citrus. Medium bodied, slick to viscous, good carbonation. Quite meritorious West Coast interpretation (though I would avoid abreviate it to WC). But where is it brewed?

Draught Good yellow head, lasting and lacey, over fully brown apricotyellow beer. Pure apricots in the nose, fruitmash, lactic acid, fruitacids. Sourish, less obvious (if still) apricot, lactic acids. Balance between beer and fruit is quite good. Again one that is mainly fruit-filled as MF. Quite deserving!

Draught Huge yellow head over dirty amber beer. Wood, bit of milkchocolate, branches with leaves. Cherries (that are not obvious in the nose) with a fine, sourish lining. Wood, brown dry chocolate, casks. Quite thick feeling, way more than lambic would be. It's a try-out, the brewer tells me, I told him that it is excellent, but that it has little from lambic, but all the more from a cherry Oud Bruin, say Liefmans sour cherry.
