In the ongoing quest of our staff’s strong will to broaden the mind, our respect and admiration to nature grows, so do the clear connections that unveil themselves through nature’s storytelling. This brew is a double tribute to the legacy of the German author Hans Heinz Ewers [1871-1943] and to the Swedish botanist Carl von Linné [1707-1778]. The latter had an enormous impact on the process of translating nature’s language to whoever wants to listen. For us, the plants and their knowledge continue to puzzle, both through their beauty and in their role as teachers. We hope you will hear it.

Bottled at SBWF. Hazy dark amber, small head. Buttery caramel aroma. Very sweet with full body and runded mouthfeel. Oily and buttery with syrup and marzipan, Thick and sticky. A very unrefined misinterpretation of Belgian style beers.
