Dit bier is een samenwerking tussen Jopen, De Prael en Emelisse. Alle drie de brouwers hebben een Bokbier met Vruchten gebrouwen, Jopen met Vijgen, Prael met Dadels en Emelisse met Rozijnen. De flessen worden in driepacks exclusief verkocht bij de Mitra. In 2012 was het thema noten. Volle zoete, fruitige vijgensmaak met een moutige basis. Het aroma is rijp vijgen en chocolade en kokos tonen. Dit Vijgen Bokbier is veel zoeter dan de Jopen Bok, door de gebruikte vijgen.

Pours a very dark brown with a slight beige head. Aroma of figs, figs, figs, figs... Naturally. Extremely sweet, like a drinkable candy. Very special. This is far too sweet and candy-like for me to consider it a great beer, however I had fun drinking this curiosity.

Bottle. Murky dark brown color. Figs and strawberries in the aroma. Very sweet flavor with some roasty notes and lots of dried figs. Almost sugary. Bitter finish. Too sweet for me.

Bottle. It pours a finger-thick dark beige head leaving some lacings over a lightly unclear dark amber to brown body with some microfloaties. The aroma is very perfumed, with marzipan, cherry hints and sugar. Sweet, lightly sugary flavor with marzipan, cherry notes, dried fruits and something perfumed. Full body and a nice carbonation. Lasting finish. Sure unusual this one, a bit too perfumed, but nice. The figs just lurking in the background. 141024

On keg at Jopenkerk Haarlem and last of the night - Cloudy murky brown body, with a thin off white head and some broken lace. The aroma is rich cherries, lots of dark cake fruits. The flavour is very sweet with a rich creamy caramel toffee marzipan taste. Great syrupy mouthfeel, but not one I could finish in a rush when we were asked to leave for closing time.
