A Rotterdam Pale Ale dryhopped with the American hops Citra & Mosaic. Karel is fruity in the nose with passion fruit, grapefruit, and a hint of hay and citrus in the background. The refreshing fruity flavors end in a slightly bitter and thirst-quenching aftertaste.

On tap at De Kaapse, pours a cloud dark amber with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out dry earthy piney hops and bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of bready malt, earthy dry bitterness, and toasted caramel. Very malt-forward, with the hops barely noticeable other than the bitterness they impart. Solidly made but nothing special.

Bottle at home from Sterk, Amsterdam, 8th November 18. Pours a dark amber, aroma is caramel, some citrus. Taste is bitter, light aromatic and citrus, slight smoke. Nice, but not as good as some others in the series.
