Blond, hazy body. Off-white creamy/rocky head. Quite weak, hoppy aroma of flowers. Heavily bitte, lightly sweet flavour. Quite 1 dimensional on the bitterness. Could be better. Not too well balanced.

Yet they swear it’s not the same as the Cuvée Hommelhof... Orange to amber, virtually no head. Very alcoholic nose, dry white sugar, touch fruity. Bit of caramel, notes of white bread, alcohol, white candi sugar flavour. Roasted too, but restrained. Treacherously light MF, alcoholburn is the only warning about its potency. Some mix. Still I wonder under which names it has been around before.

From bottle at 12de Oostendse Bierjutterij. Hazy amber, medium offwhite head. Complex aroma, but sweet malts and fruity hops prevail. Hints of pepper. Peppery flavours on a sweet base with a dry spicy finish. Sharp fizziness. Nice.
