Het Meesterstuk van 2014 is er een Brew Off geweest tussen de drie Jopenbrouwers. Het bier van Robbert Uyleman is als bier voor 2014 gekozen. Het meesterstuk van 2014 is een ‘American style’ Barleywine met een volle moutige smaak en fruitige tonen vanuit de Amerikaanse hop met een alcoholpercentage van 11%. Na de rijpingsperiode heeft dit bier een tweede rijping op nieuw Amerikaans eiken gehad. Dit geeft het bier een volle zachte vanille en hout smaak.

Bottle from Biernavigatie.nl Pours nice and dark, caramel-coloured , good to small white head Smell has some sweetness, some oak , but is very balanced . Taste is surprisingly different than other BW . It’s sweet ( sugar , but in a whole different , and rather good way ) Very full taste . Some light notes of wood . All extremely well balanced ! Just when you think the sweetness will become to much, the oak takes over, to end in a nice , almost earthy ( but not quite ) aftertaste . My second beer from the series, and so far , they ARE masterpieces . Respect for Jopen keeps going up !

Fruity and malty beer. Taste of raisin, candisugar and bread. Has a bitter note to it, with a hint of vanilla. Decent.

Bottle at the Jopenkerk. Poured a hazy dark amber with a thin off white head. The aroma is rich red berry fruit, yeast and a boozy alcohol. The flavour is strong to medium bitter with a big alcohol liqourice bitter malt palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Bottled, Nov 13, large sample. Clear copper color, medium light brown head. Aroma of caramel malt, raisin, hint of chocolate, bit spicy. Sweet taste, hint of vanilla. Bit flowery and citrussy. Quite boozy. Pretty thick body, sirupy. Interesting brew, flavors go pretty much all the way at the moment. Probably improves with some age.

From a wooden barrel at Jopen Winterbierfestival, TFS Thijs! Clear reddish amber-brown colour, light-beige head. Aroma of alcohol, almost glue-like, nice hops, toast, caramel, confit fruits. Flavour is medium-sweet, malty, caramel, raisins, hint of toast and chocolate, firm bitterness from both citrussy hops and almost biting alcohol, just light spicy, bitter hoppy finish. Fullbodied, fat, boozy. I liked this quite a bit.

paars/robijnrood helder met schuimige licht kaki kraag aroma: werkelijk super, cactus, tropisch fruit, heerlijk smaken: redelijk zoet, redelijk bitter, zeer sterk, redelijke aardse mouten, redelijk kruidig, maar waar zijn die smaken gebleven die bij het heerlijke aroma horen?, in plaats hiervoor zijn aardse tonen terug te vinden, hop. medium body, glad van textuur, laag co2, ik ben er eerlijk gezegd niet weg van.
