Kerberos is the Greek name for the three-headed hellhound that guarded the gates of the underworld, making it more than worthy of protecting the contents of this bottle. We used the finest imported Pilsner malt and Belgian candi sugar to give this beer its’ light malt flavor and color, accented by the complex flavors and aromas imparted by our unique yeast strain.

2008: Yeasty walnut with peach overtones. Cloudy orange, headless, full of floaties. Dough, yeast, and tart overripe oranges. Assumes a babyfood peach and apricot quality toward the end. The beer has potential, but something went awry in the execution. Then again, 3 years of age ma not be ideal for this one. I like the interpretation of the style, but it probably needs to be drunk fresher.

Hazy golden color with a small pretty fast diminishing head. Smell light malts, light sweetness. Nice taste, full body, good carbonation.

Golden yellow beer with a medium and blond head. Aroma is quite strange, but interesting, bananas, some fruits, spicyness, like combination of hefe and tripel. Taste is similar than aroma, cooked bananas, fruits, yeast and some drying spicys. Almost full bodied with enough of carbonation. Weird, hefe-tripel hybrid, quite tastefull and succesfull beer.

Dark blond color. Poor head. Mild aroma of malt, sweet and sourish, alcohol. Correct body structure; light malt flavor, a bit too sweet for a Tripel, correct bitterness. Too much alcohol.

Cloudy amber beer. Smooth palate. Strong aromatic bitter sweet malt. A little sour fruit from the hops. Silky smooth finish. A decent tripel.

Cute 207ml bottle. Slightly hazy gold, white head retreats to the rim very quickly. Aroma of orange, orange zest, cloves and white pepper - the spices are quite prominent on first sniff, then become an accent. Taste has a little spice over cloying sweetness. Finishes like a lolly pretending to be a cough-drop. Poor.

Bottle: Hazy, golden, smaller stable off-white head; solid sweet-honeyish-fruity and grainy nose with a distinctive hoppy background and a tinge of alcohol; solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; slightly lingering robust sweet-bitter finish - some fruitiness included - with dry hops in the aftertaste. Very good......
