An amber beer with a small beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and citrus. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, straws, berries, and with a light dry finish. I had expected more.

Bottled: Light amber coloured. Beige thin head. Fruits and alcahol in the nose. Some notes of perfume. Fruity and perfumed sweet flavour. Not unpleasant. Light watery aftertaste.

Reddish amber coloured. Plums and old notes in the aroma. Very sweet and honeyish flavour. Liquid caramel. Cloying.

Gushing to fluffy thick head, slowly dimidnishing. Orange-amber beer, clear. Faint crystal malt odour, faint citrussy arome. Taste is restrained to a light, cookie-like, light-roasted malt taste. bubblegum flavour. Very bland, uninspiring taste. Light bodied. No discernable aftertaste, but a faint cookie-flavour. Roussa is interesting for some of S&N markets, and superfluous for the beergeek.

Light red amber coloured beer with a small head. It has a spicy Christmas aroma and taste.

Belgian Ale? It tastes just an autumn bock to me. An autumn bock with the typical Grimbergen sweetness.

Cherry aroma. Buttery taste with cherry, a hint of tartness and oak. Hopbitter aftertaste.
