Bottle, 33 cl. Yesterday at the opening of the "farm brewers". This new ’Koekelaring’ version has a Red-brown color, with a big creamy head. Medium body. Taste is little sour, malty, some bitterness. A very good creation.

From bottle changed from brewery now brewed at Alvinne. Tasted at the beer festival at Vichte. Had it on tap from De Graal, and also on bottle from the Graal. A very noice and spicy beer with flavour od coreander.

First US rating! Bottle. Pours a murky brown with a small tan head. Aroma of yeast, sweet melon, and roasted nuts. Flavor is sweet malt, some roasted malt and roasted nuts. Palate is a little weak, although the beer is rather drinkable. Ok, but not great. 7/4/7/3/14 (3.5/5)

First version brewed at De Graal Fully dark beer; head reduced to very white rim in seconds. Spicey nose with parsley, nutmeg, cinnamon and dark malts. Dark bitterish and roasted malts taste, moccha, and quite some spices, but this time blending in so identification quite difficult. Gingerbread-like, garden herbs. Very well-bodied, good carbonation. Nice, this one, one expects it spicey-sweet, but turning out more bitter & herbal.

Bottle at ZBF08. Good malty aroma, slightly sweet. Cloudy brown colour. Small stable bubbly tan head. Some yeast to flavour. Roasted, a little grainy. All in all OK.
