Brut Royal is ons degustatiebier. Na het ontgisten volgens de traditionele methode wordt het volume aangevuld met de door ons geselecteerde hoge kwaliteitslikeuren, die uitstekend bij de smaak van het basisbier passen. Dit geeft een extra vol aroma aan het Brut bier, ideaal voor een verrassend lekkere digestief bier.

Huge, whipped eggwhite-like head over cold hazed golden beer. Already upon opening a sharp nose as from brandy. Bitter, gall-like, alcohol with its raw aspect, almost no sweetness. No finesse whatsoever. Further a flavour as from oakwood, pressed to get all the resins and volatiles open. Alcoholheat. Medium bodied, not overly carbonated. This is as drinking raw alcohol. Instead of trying to emulate bubbly white French wine, maybe brew beer first?

opalescent golden colour colour, medium sized creamy ecru-ish white head; aroma of dried apricot, grainy, spicy alcoholic, some grape, yeast, maybe apple and soy sauce, as well as caramel; taste has the same notes as can be felt in the aroma with definite hoppy and cognac notes; not bad at all

0.75l bottle thanks to Lore. Hazy golden body with a white head. Lots of dried apricot in the aroma with burned sugar, cognac and nutmeg. Taste of apricot, apples, sugar syrup, cognac, wood and nutmeg. The cognac notes are a bit subtle, but it's still gives a nice addition to the beer. I'm not sure if this counts as a brut beer as it feels quite sweet. Anyways it's very nice.
