draught in Wageningen, NL. This is the home brew of a pub there. Opaque blond beere with a weak head. It has a light fruity aroma with a wholesome grainy background. Hints of pear. Watery sour-bitter taste with very little sweet. Wholesome bready palate with metallic fruity development: pears, apples.. and especially cane sugar.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a huge white head. Acidic to mild orange fruity aroma. Fruity and acidic base flavour. Towards quite citric and almost brettish. Dry and malty with a mild spice note into the finish. Sharp. Slight woody.

Bottled. A murky dark golden beer with a creamy off-white head. The aroma is sweet and at the same time acidic with notes of caramel and malt. The flavor is like an acidic Dutch beer as others I’ve had, with notes of fruit and yeast. Far from perfect.

Pours a muddy pale orange with a small film head. Aroma of citrus, some wheat and grain. Flavor is fresh sweet with a bitter finish. Fruity, citrus and some notes of grapes in the aftertaste also.

Bottle. Medium high and lasting white head. Hazy golden body. Barley malt aroma. Mild smooth and sweet barley malt flavor with fruity notes. Low carbonation. Long sweet aftertaste.

Bottle @ YNWA. Pours a muddy pale orange with a small film head. Aroma is quite mild, some spices and maltiness. Quite dry mouthfeel, weakly hoppy flavour, some malty sweetness and oranges. There is a little unwanted yeasty aftertaste hidden in the dryness.

Bottled. Aroma of pineapple and apricot. Dark golden yellow color, white head, fair lace. Sweet, light fruity, light bitter, pineapple, rice. Sparkling, warming, bit clean. Nice, good technical quality.
