Bottle. Sweet aroma of caramel and cola. Flavor is pretty watery with a bit of caramel and syrup notes. Really popular beer,can’t see why...

Aroma is poor. Looks amber/brown with very little head. The flavor is weak but the palate is strong and makes the financial castle. Its a wet brown full of subtle nuts like almond and a touch of hazel. Its quenching and impacting, but just barely touches the better browns.

Pours an amber color w/ a small off white head, that doesn’t last. Smells like another boring ale. Not great, but not the worst i’ve had. Have another? Wouldn’t pay a penny for it..

One of my all time favorites! Great color, flavor and mouth feel. Very light taste for a heavy looking beer.

This one was not the best. Certainly better than any of the light lagers, but could be better. Some malty flavor, a bit of hops. It is pretty decent with food.

On tap @ In de Wildeman. Dark brown colour, watery hoppy nose. Taste is very weak, watery bitter, some malts. Not my style.
