De la Senne Zinnebir

Brewed by Brasserie de la Senne / de Zenne Brouwerij
Style: Belgian Ale
Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, Belgium

Has a real nice bitter, hoppy flavor. Colour is golden and unclear. Has a lasting head, white. Aroma is moderate hoppy, flavor is very hoppy, metal, dry, bitter.

300 ml bottle from Bieropholie, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass.

App.: Slightly hazy deep golden with a decent off-white head. Aroma: Peppery/pine hops, some lighter citrus, good bread crust and biscuit, lightly fruity and yeasty, slightly dirty and earthy(?). Palate: Medium body with moderate effervescence. Flav.: Peppery and spicy, some pine and herbaceous hops, light fruit, lemon and pale malts; off-dry with surprising hop bitterness for a Belgian, actually decent bitterness regardless of origin.

I like it due to the bitterness.

Hazy golden colour with white head.Aroma of citrus,fruity with flavor of yeast and spicey.Mouth feels of soap and perfume,bitter hoppy finish.Not my type of beer.

Hazy gold blonde hue, with a thick white head, leaving laces, yeasty, fruity, nice floral herbal hop nose, with a faint citrusy accent of lemon , and a hint of honeyed pale malt in the aroma follows though on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, bready dough character, with an earthy grainy pale malt accent, with a leafy, flowery hop bitter mouthfeel, with a light fruity zest lime note, leading towards a acidic lime, juicy hop bittering finish.

Cloudy yellow with a big white head. Belgian yeast aroma with pineapple, orange, clove and nutmeg. Fruity and soft flavour initially but with a great hop bite following soon after. Slightly spicy, but first of all good herbal continental hops well balanced by the fruity yeast character.

Bottle. High fluffy quickly disappearing white head. Hazy milky orange body. Malty nutty peach aroma with grassy notes. Flavor quite different from the aroma though. A somewhat sharp bitterness is dominating but pepper and can also be spotted. Low carbonation and a long aftertaste. OK, but nothing special.

Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a big foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aromas of dry hops are dominating with a bready yeast presence. Taste is also a very nice mix between some dry Noble hops with a nice Belgian malt profile and somewhat bready yeast. Full body with good carbonation and no alcohol. Very well done and easily drinkable.

33cl bottle. Hazy orangey golden, foamy white head. Very fruity, orange zest aroma, quite a lot of yeast. Similar spritzy orange zest flavor, yeast, little chalky and hoppy finish. Strongly carbonated, fizzy palate. Simple, fruity, but over yeasty belgian.
