One of the special limited brews for Borefts 2016. Bittere noodzaak is a Dutch way of saying something is a dire need, it really , really has to be done. And bitter also means: bitter. Literally it translates as Bitter & Need.

Thank you for sharing BE RB Crew! Sampled draft @ Borefts 2016. Day 1. Clear amber, little off-white head. Nose is strangely herbal, sweet leaves, caramel, toffee. Taste is bit dull, strongly oily, low cheese, herbal, oily toffee & biscuit malts. Body is strange plastic. Weird, not fully successful but partially enjoyable. Better than feared even if not fully a success.
