Pirate Piccolo is our limited edition beer of which only 500L is made per year.
Our Piccolobier is used as the basis for this. This beer is put in a new oak barrel for 6 months. During the maturation in the barrel, part of the beer is lost (angels share). The space that is freed up as a result is filled with brown Rum, which is of course immediately associated with pirates.

Dark golden, small head. Aroma is rum, floral, herbs, old fashioned pharmacy/drogisterij, taste is the same. Rum, not bad

28 April 2019. At Zythos Bierfestival. Cheers to Anke, 77ships & tderoeck! Hazy pale golden, lasting, thin, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of lavender, baby’s bath foam, dried banana, rosemary, chloride, industrial honey, white bread, ‘wet’ herbs. Taste is medium sugary sweet, offering ripe banana, apple, honey & white bread, developing a weird bitter mix of herbs, wet lavender, somewhat soapy & sourish. Dryish, faintly floral hoppy finish, more white sugar, banana & slightly disturbing white rum-like alcohol. Light to medium body, slick texture, soft to flat carbonation. Weird overall, it amazes me how some brewers seem to think that their product is up to scratch for distribution.

Could've been first, damn backlog! :p
Little cloudy orange beer, small creamy off-white head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very floral, rosemary, lavender, overripe banana, very sugary impression. MF: no carbon, medium to light body. Taste: all banana flavoured candy, spicy, rosemary and lavender, soapy impression, this is pretty bad. Aftertaste: spicy, lavender and rosemary, sugary finish, nope, this is bad.
