| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 24, 2008 Huge, slightly yellowish head with variously sized bubbles, collapsing over pale ochre beer. Very ’’beery’’ nose, meaning good balance between malts and (quite grassy) hops, herbs. Little or no trace of white candi sugar, which is remarkable, seen the taste. Sweet, very alcoholic taste, bit of sweet corn flavour, cornflour. Seems not fermented out completely. Very carbonated, near-fizzy MF. Medium bodied, slick; if it weren’t for the CO², it would be close to syrupy. Another beer - nothing more. Unless... I fear that in a year, these bottles are bombs. Jerre (1768), Waregem, Belgium
