Zwaar Bier is a top-fermenting beer with a spicy flavor due to the addition of wintery herbs, but it tastes good throughout the year.

Pours a hazy amber/brown colour with a small beige head. Aroma of malts, spices, raisins, and a very profound presence of anise. This is definitely an interesting brew, but it’s a little too much like cough syrup for my taste.

Bottled. Poured reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma is a bunch of spices, sweet malts, mild alcohol as well as some slight toffee. Flavour is also a rich amount of spices, with some yeasty, herbal, alcoholic and sweet malty notes to it.

Fles op vakantie geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een amberkleurig bier met een volle beige schuim. Het heeft een kruidige geur. De smaak is vol, kruidig met tonen van caramel en zoethout.

Bottle. Malty, spicy aroma: anis, cinnamon and coreander. Cinnamon, mint, anis and corander in the malty sweet flavor. The spicyness doesn’t bother me initially, but later on it really does. Licorice in the surprisingly short aftertaste. Not unpleasant for lovers of spiced beers.

Thank you for sharing people! Sampled bottled as “Pauw Wintertrots” @ “Gouda Winterbier Festival 2016”. Dark red amber with no head. Nose is weird, some chlorine, licorice, cloves. Taste is licorice, touch watery, herbal, cloves, sugar,… Watery body. Quite a bit of a notes that I didn’t care for.
