7.6

Tasted many years ago as De Kavijaks, but according to some sources, this was a mere alias of Oeral - something worth investigating, I think. Old rating to only brief notes: thick and firm, cream white, rocky head, yellowish peach blonde colour, cloudy. Strong orange presence in the aroma as well as hay, pepper, banana, cloves, ’speculaas’, bark, bitter honey, cheese, marzipan. Fruity taste, citrussy freshness, not too sweet, light honeyish malt, overpowered by a ’green’, resinous, quite sharp hop bitterness that dries the finish. Typical uncompromising Dolle brew.
