Spécial De Ryck is the flagship beer of our brewery, created in 1920 and brewed according to the original recipe ever since, using only the purest ingredients. It's a amber coloured speciale Belge ale with subtle maltiness, a fruity flavor of delicate hops and a slightly bitter aftertaste.

Tap at the Bonte Koe, Leiden. Poured a hazy straw colour with a frothy white head. The aroma yeast light malt. The flavour is light bitter, with a dry malt, light fruit hop palate. Light bodied with average carbonation.

orange in the glass, sweet and grainy in the nose. The beer starts way to sweet and slightly clove-yeasty. The "typical" Belgian-Ale characteristics are there, but lie under a hard to describe layer of malt and muff. Unround. The aftertaste is sweet. malty, yeasty with clove elements, bitter and highly carbonated.

Piwo tylko z wygladu jest ladne obfita piana i trwala, metnosc spora. W smaku malo wyraziste, ale spodobal mi sie ten posmak jakby kwaskowaty i cierpkawy po przelknieciu.

33 cl. botle @ heom, bought @ Hogerdijk Culemborg. Hazy amber with a thins white head. Malty aroma. Quite thin taste and aftertaste. Some malts, some hops, nothing more really.

Light hazy amber colour, off-white head. Fresh malty aroma, fruity, banana. Light sweet malty flavour, light sour touch. Malty finish, banana tones.
Refreshing, not too outspoken, rather nice for a speciale Belge.
(Poored from bottle @ ZBF ’12)

Clear amber body with a white creamy head. Aroma of sharp German hops, yeast and caramalts. Moderately bitter flavour also quite sharp on the balance. Nice, refreshing but somewhat flat flavour.
