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.

Very good white head, slowly receding over clear golden beer, lively carbonated. Very neutral nose. Bit herbal/weeds as melisse, lemonbalm, verbena, marigolds. Dry flavour with completely fermented white candi sugar, watercolour paint. Very attenuated, highly carbonated; very slick and medium bodied. Ticks most of the tripel boxes, but still isn't a patch on the Westmalle. And as to the maple syrup, I'm still searching. Txs to Stef!

Fast gone whitish head over clear orange-golden beer. Explosive & inviting nose with dry- C-hops, somehowe more as a lot of black IPA aromas. Asafoetida, citrus(peel). Bitter(ish), lemonbalm (or insect repellant...), some faint toast and caramel with the sweetness suppressed. Wet cardboard. Quite hopoilslick, well-carbonated; light to medium bodied. Quite decent IPA. Not to be given to astronauts. Txs to Stef!

Huge, dense, lightly tinted white head over cold hazed orangey golden beer; shards of lace. Clove, dried orangepeel, banana, orange liqueur. More of the same, plus some chewing gum. All flavours subdued - it's a Kristall, after all. Mushrooms, very slightly earthy. Light, if somewhat (wheat)slick. Well-carbonated. Ho-hum, as expected.

Good snowwhite head over clear golden beer, not very lively. "Herb" - dry, leafy, malts, partly toasted and hints of dry, noble hops. Dry bitterish flavour, herbal, overlying dry, toasty & cornflakes-like malts. Grains & straw. Feels better carbonated than it looks, almost spritzy. Light body, slick. Very classic - and quite allright.

Purple-black beer with no head. Rum, Bourbon, blackberries, sweet, molasses, cocos. Vanilla, nougat, chocolate, blackberries; orange filling for pralines , and tons of coconut. Sticky, full body, and an ultra-long aftertaste. Alcoholheat. Amazing, if extremely sweet, almost cloying. Big thanks to the anonymous provider and Dav!

Draught No head on very pale yellow, almost clear fluid. Apples & lambicaroma, in perfect balance. Nothing else, however. Bone-dry, if without typical outspoken cider flavours, neither outspoken farmyard etc. Light sweetness suggested, and a light present acidity. Seems lighter than it probably is (ABV). No carbonation. Conclusion: balance to the detriment of excellence.

"Urban-Keller" nowhere on the label Very good, dense, yellowish head, very regular over hazy foxy amber beer, some lace. Sweet malts, somewhat weyish, faintly leaves, laurel. Again leafy, but with some dry bitterness, balanced by both sourish CO² and some (sweeter) malts. Fresh herbs, very young hazelnuts. Light body, quite spritzy. Nice, but I miss something as Maillard or caramelisation from the stones. Purchased at the brewpub in Elsenwang.

Small yellowish-cream head, fast gone over hazy orange-golden beer. Exotic fruit, citrus, fresh hoparomas at first. Then rosewater creeps in and signs of slight oxydation. Quite bitter, bitter melon, citrus/grapefruitpeel. Very dry flavour ànd MF, especially backthroat. Finishes metallic, and pretty empty. Medium carbonation, medium bodied, oily-slick. Starts quite OK, then peters out. Txs to Stef!
