Robe brune voilée surmontée d’une mousse beige qui s’estompe. Arômes âcres de fruis et de levures. Saveurs âcres de fruits, de levure et de malt caramélisé.

Cloudy brown body with a long lasting small beige head. Aroma of tree leaves, ginseng, cat food, wet forest, rotting stuff. Taste is weird (not original, just weird) and unpleasant. An attack of too ripe fruits (bananas apples), red meat and vegetables is followed by an old apple juice tartness/acidity. Pretty Bad. Smistake Guido.

Draft. Poured a dark cloudy brown body with a good size head that faded during the drinking. Aroma was of crisp golden apples, spices, spices, sugar. Taste was mild but slightly sour with the apple and sugar laying low on the tongue after each sip. Odd ale different than what I expected.

Hazy brown hue, with a small tan-colored head, leaving laces, yeasty fruity nose of plums, raisins, dates, toasted malt, brown sugar, candi sugar, and a faint spiciness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, winey, fruity character of corinthian raisins, prunes, dates, with a sweet toasted malt, brown sugar, faint floral hops, leading towards a sweet fruity wineyness finish.

Bottle: Poured a hazy and cloudy dark brown color ale with a huge foamy head with quite good retention and lacing. Aroma of candi sugar and sourness is pretty intense. Taste of sweet malt candi sugar and funky Belgian yeast is complex and quite intense. Body is way above average with tick lees at lying at the bottom of the bottle with some great carbonation. Interesting farmhouse characteristics that I wasn’t expecting.

(Bottle, BB 1kw/2007) Pours a dark amber body with an average beige head. Aroma of cherries, mustiness, caramel, spoiled vegetables, and apples. Flavor of toasted malt, brett, cocoa, and caramel.

Bottle. Dark brown with fair head. Sweet and bitter tasty brew! Regenboog has brewed great beer since 1995.
