The third Ierbius, a quadrupel, with a name in the local dialect like the other two beers, launched at Maldegems Bierfestival. Mousy, egg-white, slowly dissipating, large-bubbled and bit irregularly edged head, hazy caramel-bronze robe with almost purplish hue. Aroma of molten candi sugar, caramel sauce, rainwater, dried plum, chewing gum, something iron-like, sugared tea, blue plum, banana, honey, pear syrup, wet tree leaves. Very sweet onset, dark unfermented candi syrup, fruity hints of plum, banana and pear, soft carb, bit ‘fluffy’ mouthfeel, resinous, with a thin iron-like edge; toffeeish, bready malt sweet body, thick layer of honeyish candi sugariness on top, sticking a bit to the teeth even; iron-, dead leaf- and rainwater-like aspects continue well into the finish, where they meet with a soft background floral hop touch and a warming, yet nowhere astringent alcohol glow. Too sweet even for a style that naturally contains a lot of sweetness – seemingly inspired by Kasteelbier or something alike; technically of an acceptable level, but like their other beers, feeling a bit amateurish and in need of finetuning.
