Draught at By-Kall pub (Rovato, Brescia). Cremosa and compact foam. Discreet persistence. Red color diamond much elegant and attractive. Delicate and much rich scent. Notes of red fruit and alcohol. Indeed a lot yielded. Determined taste but not strongly. Medium fizzy. Optimal persistence to the palate.

Ruby red to brown color, slight head, fair lace. Fruity nose, light cherry, sweet, as is the start. top is a bit thin, the beer is acidic, dry, moderately carbonated. Finish is lightly hopped, and dry, but a good beer non the less and much to my pleasure, reminds me of Leffe Radieuse.

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

Dark reddish color and a really nice aroma. I think all Grimbergens have a nice aroma. This is not nearly as good as the double or triple. But a drinkable beer. Malty flavor, maybe hints of caramel. Drinkable, but there are better beers in this category for sure.

A special beer from the aken maes brewery, with a fruity flowery (roses i think) flavour, but the taste is very mild.

Bit disappointing aroma with just yeast and some hops. Dark amber colour and great head. Spicy (cinamon), hoppy, some bitterness. Long finish.

Not my taste, it is a special kind of bier. It makes me think to Leffe Radieuse.
