Originaly produced for the event ‘ Kraddel’s 10K Madness’ . This beer was created to the idea of an English Bitter. Pure, English ingrediënts were used, next to a great brewing skill, to create a very tasty beer of only 3.0 % ABV. For every beer sold, € 3.0 will be donated to charity, in this specific case ‘Inter’ , who make festivals and events accessible for people with disabilities.

Thanks! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ Kraddel's 10K Madness. Darker orange, hazy, soapy white head. Nose is weird overripe fruit, stone fruit with sweeter almost candy-like fruit & lemonade. Taste is weird bitter grass hop, yeast presence, paper, stone fruit,.. Body feels touch weird with grassy hop, almost grainy,… Weird – I don’t get how this is a bitter but I am not an expert. Music is not bad, Slipknot is fair in general. (Bottled 21/05/2018).

Small yellowish head over fully hazy amber-ochre beer. Grains, wheat, dry cheese, old honey. Grains, bitterish-spicy, faint veggie acidity, lending a perfect finish to the beer. Obviously light body, good carbonation. Light and good - recommendable.

28/VII/18 - 33cl bottle @ Kraddel's 10K event, Beerlovers Bar (Antwerpen) - BB: 21/V/19, bottled: 21/V/18, brewed: 17/IV/18 (2018-909)

Pretty cloudy orange beer, small creamy yellowish head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: some banana, fruity touch, yeast, stone fruit, malty, some caramel. Doesn't smell too bad! MF: soft carbon, medium to light body. Taste: very malty, grains, soft grassy bitterness, bit metallic, hay. Aftertaste: dry, grassy and a bit herbal, medicinal bitterness in the end, bit watery but ok for a 3% abv beer.

Bottle at Kraddel's 10K Madness, congrats Dylan! Pun on Slipknot - Three Nill. Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is yeast, caramel, some fruitiness, some Fruchtgummi Franconia-style hops. Taste is caramel, earthy hops, leafy, minerals. Silky mouthfeel with fizzy carbonation. Decent for 3%, but not very English for me.

Brewed by Brochus, for the event surrounding my 10K . This was one of the 10 beers. Forever gratitude towards the participating brewers ! This specific one was named after Slipknot's ' three nill' , and I requested it to be a Bitter of 3.0 % ABV. For every beer sold, 3.0 € was dontated to charity ( Inter - an organisation I participate in as a volounteer myself ) . Pours blonde, unclear as I poured it with yeast along with it. Medium, stable white head. Smell is typical English pale malts, intense and very refined. Mild hoppy undertone, avoiding an overly sweet malted scent. Taste is bit bitter, starts of sharp and a bit grassy, spiced, than malts take over. A big blast of intensity, typical english maltyness. Very well made English-style bitter, as this doesn’t taste like ‘ A Belgian Take on ‘ , which is exactly as I wanted it to be. long lasting, malty aftertaste. Good body, surprisingly good for a beer this low ABV. Medium carbo, which is perhaps a bit higher than the English counterparts, but def not as high as the Belgian ones. Nice !
