The only beer with Jenever: its fermentation in the bottle gives it its air of authentic craftsmanship and originality. To be enjoyed chilled.

A beautiful, golden colour, a head is white and quite big. Aroma is storngly fruity, perries, juniper, some aromatic flowers. Taste has oranges and fruitness, some honey and peppery spicyness. Medium bodied, fresh, quite strong carbonation. Quite personal, juniper notes with the otherwise traditional flavours.

Clear medium golden colour, small frothy white head, good retention, recedes slowly to a thin layer with yeast islets, stays till the end, light lacing. Aroma grainy, juniper, yeasty, vanilla, alcohol, floral hops. Taste medium sweet and light bitter, grainy, fruity. Medium body, creamy texture, average carbonation, aftertaste mild bittersweet, alcohol well hidden. Overall a fresh, delicate and well-balanced ale, quite good.

Fruity aroma has notes of apple. apple purée, yellow berries, stone fruit, sweet-ish malty basis, a touch of cider and calvados, floral yeasty overtones. Taste is fruity, notes of unfiltered apple juice, apple purée, cider, subtle hints of powder sugar sweetness, biscuit, a cautious vanilla touch. Harmonious, integrated, well balanced - really nice.
