Apparently, Adam was pretty disappointed when the serpent offered him an apple. And we don’t blame him. This Forbidden Fruit is dark red, softly sweet, caressing and full in the mouth. It is brewed with roasted malt and hops, giving it a typical herbal plant aroma. By the way, it’s not forbidden to have a taste.

Botella de 33 cl tomada en varias ocasiones en la época belga. De color oscuro con una espuma bastante densa. Cuerpo medio con un volumen alcohólico bueno, sabores dulces y algo tostados. Buena

Bottle at Rootz at the Harbour, Den Haag. Poured a hazy dark amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is yeast, light fruit. The flavour is medium sweet with a big yeast, malt, fruit, alcoholic liqourice, light spice palate. Medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. A big alcoholic sweetie from Belgium. Fully deserving of its high rating.
