of a historical nature

I've had Czech beers and their style on my mind and this one just looks the part, for some reason.  I think it might be the little red shield at the top of the label.  It's actually a hummingbird, if you're curious.

There's a slightly sweet smell that wafts out on pouring.  It's bubbly, apple-juicey in appearance, with an interesting, mild sweet flavor.  A little like apples in taste too, in fact.  Ever so slightly bitter at the beginning, mellows into sweet.  Light and refreshing, a summertime sort of beer, although fall in Madrid isn't far off the mark either.  I've had some bad experiences with Spanish pilsners; fortunately, this one is Belgian!  It's another one that's brewed under license in Belgium for a Dutch company.  Too much demand for the Dutch beers?

Can't get more classic than that

a little experiment

 "Exotic beer", it says right on the label.  I'd been told the coconut was good, but had never heard of the palm nut variety, so I decided to pick that one up.  Spread the experiences around a little.  According to the label, it's actually brewed by Dutch brewery Huyghe for the Belgian Mongozo.  The beer is slightly dark in color, but transparent, with a bubbly, resistant head.  There's just a slight hint of spicy odor from the glass, under a noticeable sweetness.  The taste is sweet at first, but develops into a sort of bitter-grassy flavor, just a little bit like horchata aftertaste.  It's a nice enough beer for sitting around on a sunny day, enjoying some relaxation, but as much as it has nothing distracting or unpleasant in the way of flavor, there's nothing especially unusual or interesting.  Just fine, but not amazing.
