The Tumulus Aura is the lighter brother of the Tumulus 800, for bitterness as well as for alcohol percentage. Therefore it is an ideal reception beer or an alternative for lager beer for those that seek additional value! The composition of the malts is similar and the hopping is done with the same noble hops for the Tumulus Aura as for the Tumulus 800. Also the fermentation of this beer is done with the same unique yeast strain, developed by the KU Leuven/VIB for De Kale Ridders, who selected it for the pleasant and fruity aromas it produces. After the high fermentation the Tumulus Aura is refermented in the bottle.

Bottle. A dense, finger-thick white head forms over a more or less clear golden body. Some lacings. The aroma is quite sweetish and fruity, with some Belgian yeast notes. Cellar hints in the far back. Quite weak. The flavor has a decent sweetness, balanced well by the bitterness. Pine cones and resins, with a faint spiced touch. Fruity too. Medium to full body, rather dry, with a lasting fruity and bitter finish. Quite nice, but not very interesting anyway. 140830
