Bolleke De Koninck was first brewed in 1952 by Modeste Van Den Bogaert. It's officially a 'Special Belge beer', a Belgian reaction to the upcoming Pilsners. It became the most popular beer of Antwerp (city). The name officially changed from 'De Koninck APA' to 'Bolleke De Koninck' in August 2019. The original recipe was restored by Sven Dekleermaeker.

Djupt bärnstensfärgad vätska med ett väl tilltaget skumlock. Aromer av karamell och örter. Lite kladdig maltighet. Jästig, örtig i smaken med en beska som lutar åt torkat hö. Värmande och med god munfyllnad.

(Can) Pours clear brown with small white head. Clean aroma of candy and herbs. Medium body with plenty of bright carbonation. Great taste with a backbone of caramel malt overlaid with some gentle fruity tartness and some nice herbal bitterness. Very drinkable.

Keg at the Dovetail, Farringdon, 15/09/23. Amber pour topped with a just off white head that retains well. Nose is dark malts, herb, biscuit, stewed fruits. Taste comprises toffee, malt forward, herb, raisins, biscuit, light spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Fine for the style.

Poured from the tap. Clear-ish amber with small white head. Caramel malt, some dark fruits, a bit dry, and a healthy dose of phenols. Things aren’t jiving together.
