Kempisch Vuur Jeneverbier is een blond bier, dat zeer licht van kleur is (7 EBC). Een storting van 14,5°P brengt het alcoholgehalte, na hergisting op de fles, op 6,5 vol%. Een goed doordrinkbaar bier dus. Men zou kunnen vermoeden dat er hier jenever werd toegevoegd aan het bier. Niets is echter minder waar. Het Jeneverbier onderscheidt zich van de andere bieren doordat er tijdens het brouwen jeneverbessen werden gebruikt. Dit geeft het bier een speciale toets die doet denken aan Jenever. Al voor dat er maar één slok is gedronken is de jeneverbes is al duidelijk waar te nemen in de neus. Ook de afdronk verraadt de bitterheid van de jeneverbes. Dit bier moet samen gedronken worden (alternerend, dus geen duikboot) met de “Bierjenever”. Deze jenever werd ter plaatse gestookt en er werd hop in verwerkt zodat er een compleet smakenpallet van bier en jenever gecreëerd wordt. Een speciale ervaring: jeneverbes in bier en hop in jenever.

Amber blond, medium carbonation. Smells like jenever, but no taste of it. Bitter and sweet malty.

Small whitish head over (cold)hazed orange beer. Rather neutral, even bit dusty nose, faraway herbal aroma that might well be juniper. Gradually more aromas waft up, including one of sweet oranges. Dry-spicy flavour, with an unpleasant, if mercifully light off-flavour that has some unwelcome association with dried dog dung. Then indeed a flavour as from juniper branches, not unlike one of the few Sathi’s I’ve once tasted. Though it is hardly medium bodied and low in ABV, I get a fleeting alcoholheat. Seems undercarbonated. Not my thing.

Zythos Bierfestival 2012, Leuven, Belgium. It pours clear gold with nice yet small white head. The modest aroma offers up spicy – herbally notes that lean a bit woody and then goes into faint apple notes. The taste delivers a nice fresh grainy maltiness that rolls into spicy hops, some floral hops and sort of a mango like tropical fruitiness.

15cl sample @ ZBF’12. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme a un bouquet somptueux de baies de genièvre le tout sur un suivi épicé houblonné. En bouche, profile reste très belge sur une amertume houblonnée, le genièvre ajoute un côté gagnant sur cette bière qui sans ce dernier aurait été dans un style habituel. Le malt reste présent et typique en styler carapils/pâle.

Imported from my RateBeer account as Kempisch Vuur Jeneverbier (by Pirlot):
Aroma: 8/10, Appearance: 3/5, Taste: 7/10, Palate: 3/5, Overall: 14/20, MyTotalScore: 3.5/5

Clear orange beer, small aery white head, unstable. Aroma: very sweet, malty, bit sugary, candy, ripe fruits. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, malty, some sugar, ripe to overripe fruits, bitter touch, little medicinal. Aftertaste: bitter, spices, dry ending. Didn't taste the "jenever" though, but maybe it's just brewed with juniper berries?
