This example of the Belgian Farmhouse Ale style began as a final project recipe created by one of Glenn Castelein's brewing students, William Roelens, who named it after his grandson Mauro, who lives in the town of Lauwe. The Alvinne brewers were so impressed by this beer that they added it to their lineup with Roelens' permission.

This beer was just a homebrew try, on a small-scale brewing installation, by homebrewer W. Roelens, "culminating" in only 30l of beer. But because of its success with most tasters on two public outings, the beer might be produced in future on the larger brewing installation. Fully hazy lemon-yellow, yeast all in suspension; little disappearing white head. Nose of paint, wheat and other grains (coriander,...) Cough syrup from the sixties, finish is spicey and again something like elderberry syrup, but diluted with very watered lemon squash. Light body, but all the same gist slickness. Very home-brewer like. Is only in very limited supply. Second batch, same recipe, but adjusted spicewise, commercial execution Again much coriander/spices/wheat & grains. At least that’s what I dig, because no coriander is used!. The taste is more straightforward; spicey, sweet-light sourish with green malt. Spiceyness is not coriander-ish here, but the juniper is unrecognisable. Much better balance, home-brew character all but gone. Would gain at least 0.2 points, giving it 3/5.
