Qantelaar is een ongefilterd bier van hoge gisting met smaakevolutie en hergisting op fles. Het is een donkerbruin bier met zacht robijnrode schijn. Het heeft een rijk aroma van drop, zoethout, gedroogd fruit en caramel. Smaakpalet en body zijn complex met toetsen van gebrande mout, caramel, gedroogd fruit, drop, chocolade en een subtiele hopbitterheid. Samen met de romige textuur en de lange lichtzoete en gebrande afdronk zorgt dit bier voor een unieke belevenis.

Qantelaar is een artisanaal gebrouwen bier dat met uitzondering van enige kandijsuiker voldoet aan het Reinheitsgebot. Het bevat dus geen enkel kruid, specerij of chemisch additief. Het recept van dit bier is tot stand gekomen uit een weloverwogen selectie van vijf moutsoorten en twee Belgische hopvariëteiten.

​Qantelaar is enkel te verkrijgen op 75cl. d'Oude maalderij wil hiermee het belang benadrukken van het sociale aspect van het proeven, degusteren en genieten van kwaliteitsvolle bieren. Ook het verouderingsproces en de smaakevolutie verlopen uiteraard veel beter op grote fles.

Bottle from Dranken Geers, Oostakker, Nr Gent, Belgie, consumed at dad’s Thursday 19th February 2015 Pours dark brown with an off white head. Fruity and very tart, I have to confess I hadn’t realised that this was a sour beer. Some wet wood in the mouth, fruit skins, it is enjoyable but very tart and tangy. Good. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Dunkler, etwas zu stark karbonisierter Antrunk. Deutliche Herbe, kaum süß. Das Malz nimmt im Mittelteil bereits deutlich ab, dennoch leicht schokoladig. Zu früh wird das Bier trocken, im Nachgeschmack verschwinden weite Teile der Malzigkeit. Ok. 9/10/8/8/11/8

Very good cream head, faintly irregular, over brown-black beer with a ruby shine, shards of lace. Warm, coloured malts, brown candi sugar, mild lactic acid smell. Further liquorice, wood, dried dark fruit. Fine sourish-sweetish, wood and lactic acid, buttermilk. Bit of chocolate with banana filling. Fusels & esters. Not very well-bodied, but refreshing, titillating MF. Slick. Long-lasting flavour. Day and night when compared to the first Maenhout version. This one is great.

Oude Maalderij’s first beer, brewed at Maenhout, but since last year production apparently moved to Gulden Spoor. Bottled in 75 cl champagne bottles wrapped in paper on which a lengthy commercial (and probably fake) history is written. Light beige, moussy, not too stable head, colour a misty dark bronze. Subdued fruity character, some pear, some orange, caramelly and nutty malts, liquorice, mild grassy hop bitter finish, quite full mouthfeel. Not bad for a first attempt.

75cl bottle, shared with Blackhaddock, Fin & Loz @ Les Crepes de Sophie, Shrewsbury. Thanks Jeremy! This was a beautiful rare, aged quad. Some dried fruits and slight sour oud bruin notes, mildly sticky & sweet with some spice. A curious taste and glad to have tried it.

Corked and caged 0.75 litre bottle from 08 Oct 2012, Lot 002. Shared with Fin and Mat on 23rd Aug 2014 at Sophie’s Creperie. Dark brown with a red hue, tanned head. Malts lead the way in both the nose and taste with dark fruits showing in both the aroma and taste. A slight yeastiness in the flavouring as the beer warmed a little. It came across a bit sweet and sour in nature with the sweetness just about winning overall. I liked it.

Bottle courtesy of Black Haddock, cheers Jeremy! We had this at The Creperie, Market Hall, Shrewsbury, Saturday 23rd August 2014 in company of Mat, Loz, Jeremy and some of Jeremy’s family, Pours mahogany in colour with a light beige head. Tangy dark sticky fruits a bit of date perhaps. This is both spicy and a little yeasty. A twangy fruity sour edge. Its good. Aroma not too disimilar to Pannepot, in fact its really similar. A jolly decent beer, cheers Jeremy! A8 A4 T7 P4 Ov15 3.8
