Pours a clear golden color with a thick white head. Ordinary aroma and flavor of coriander, citrus and yeast, feels a lot like a boring tripel. The palate is light and creamy and the carbonation is lively. It’s not very entertaining.

Had it in the Kulminator, Antwerp, vintage 1999.Yellow colour, average white head. Heavy sweet ’old’ aroma with some madeirisation hints and Yeasty as well. Full body, sweet yeasty, with a somewhat astringent body. Held nice for a 6 year overtime beer.

Very pale hazey yellow with a sweet fruity (mango not citrus) aroma. Flavour is maltier than its colour would have you believe and alcohol is there in the finish.

Bottle
Light golden amber, fine pearling carbonation, big fluffy lacing head. Tropical fruit and mineralic yeast aroma. Harsh phenolic entry, fermented fruit, chocolaty notes , earthy mineralic, spicy. Strikes me as unharmonic. Velvety mouthfeel, light pearling. Old fruit aftertaste. Now this was disappointing.

33 cl bottle. Yeast in bottom. Golden colour with a fizzy lance head. Aroma of alcohol, spice and some yeast. Flavour of spice and malt that ends in a warm alcoholic finish.
