Stille nacht, ook in Esen te verkrijgen bij De Dolle Brouwers, is niet alleen een prachtig bier, ook de naam is niet te evenaren. Stel u voor dat men in alle kerken ter wereld een bierlied zou aanheffen? Zo is het natuurlijk niet bedoeld!

Toch heeft een Kerstbier iets speciaals en mag er ietsje méér van verwacht worden. Ietsje meer zegt u? Een van de zwaarste densiteiten van het wort: 22°PL. De ambachtelijke brouwzaal kan een grote storting mout verwerken en men brouwt eréén brouwsel per dag, koking in koperen ketel met rechtsreeks gasvuur en afkoeling in het koelschip, ook in koper.

Er wordt enkel bellenhop uit Poperinge gebruikt. Witte kandij mietten zorgen voor de extra densiteit. De afkoeling gebeurt met een Baudelot-koeler en de gisting gebeurt in open koperen gistkuipen. De lagering duurt minimum een maand en het bier is nagegist in de fles.

Van dit bier wordt de bottledatum vermeld op de capsule.

Two bottles from 2018 xxx batch consumed Christmas Eve 2023. Poured deep amber, minimal head with lacing on the glass. Slightly bitter with notes of honey, pears, malt and alcohol. Boozy yet smooth with a hoppy aftertaste. Delicious.

Lys brun lett tåkete med beige skum. Lukter fløtekaramell, belgisk gjær, tørket frukt og alkohol. Fruktig, malt og og noe syrlig smak. Smaker fløtekaramell, bakt eple, noe blomster og belgisk gjær. Middels lang.

My Christmas Eve tipple for the last 30+ years, the date on the cap 2021 xx, I believe this was the second batch brewed. Taste is tart, slightly sour and vinous. Definitely not living up to previous years and the second bottle was returned to the cellar in the hope that it will improve a little by next year.

2024 draught at Novare Res, 12/12/24. Hint of haze, deep copper brass. Large, creamy, white head, good retention. Rich white bread/baguette with excellent black pepper phenol. Plaster/mineral with fruity yeast, mild spice and moderate mellowness. No booze. Intense white bread and honey maltiness. Thick and rich, sweet. Some spice with lingering heavy malt. This doesn't seem to be the best expression of this beer, or maybe this beer is so big and brutish, it just has to be laid down.

Bottle drunk with Albert and Paul. Low carb, super sweet and bready honey nose. Biscuit, kandis sugar, awesome!

Obviously the freshest of the three, though not as complex. Seems like everything is there but in developmental stages. Least interesting of the three (as of tonight). Batch XXX

Time for a taste test! This was sweeter yet also more bitter in the finish, compared to the other two. Warming, malty spicy goodness.
