Kwak is a traditional strong Belgian amber ale, a perfect blend of malt and hops with a great complexity of flavour.
Appearance: the Kwak beer is recognizable by its deep amber, clear beer with a dense, creamy-coloured head. The white wood support offers a nice contrast with the beer.
Aroma: A balance of dark caramel, dried orange, a hint of banana and baking spices with a touch of earthiness
Flavour: Medium-bodied with a soft, mellow warmth. Flavours include gentle allspice, baked caramel and banana with notes of orange marmalade. Spice and a warming character linger on the finish with a delicate bitterness.

The legend that is Kwak, albeit not served in the famous rack & bulbous glass combination! Hazy/cloudy pale amber with a frothy white head and a sweet and yeasty aroma. It's a sweet, fruity and syrupy concoction, with a slighty musty character to it, it's also a warming, comfortable beer that goes down very smoothly (considering its ABV).

Barwa jasno miedziana, niemal klarowne, piana w kolorze zabrudzonej bieli, dość obfita, niezbyt trwała. W aromacie słodowe, chlebowe, lekka brzoskwinia i ananas. W smaku słodowe, chlebowe, estry w typie owocowym, nieznaczne fenole, trochę nut czerwonych owoców, nieco winne. Goryczka niska do średniej, wysycenie i ciało w normie. Ma potencjał, ale w zasadzie niewiele z tego wynika.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
