----------------------------------------------------------
Carrousel beer was brewed for the first time at the request of cultural centre 30CC (Leuven) to celebrate the unique folk festival in Kessel-Lo on Saturday, May 14, 2011. Master brewer Marc selected four grains and some hops varieties to create a unique lager with a distinctive fresh and fruity character. The beer is made with spelt malt which adds a slight acidity to the beer. We use a new hops variety, CITRA, which gives this beer its refreshing citrus character. With taste evolution, unfiltered and unpasteurized.
Fermentation: Low fermentation and secondary fermentation in the bottle
hops: Citra hops, Saaz hops
malt: Pilsner malt (barley) and spelt malt
temp: 4-6°C

From a 75 cl bottle bought at Belgiuminabox. Heavy gusher, beer poured out of the neck upon opening. Loose, irregular, fairly stable, off-white head over a hazy, warm orangey ’old gold’ blonde beer. Aroma of soaked bread, soapy wheat, wet hay, grape peel, dried flowers, mouldy orange, lemon zest, breakfast cereals, apple juice, sourdough, hint of chlorine, thyme. Taste fruity, very applish, pineapple, hint banana, orange, soft carbo, deep sourish graininess, bready barley sweetishness, supple and a bit oily, floral hop bitter ending, gentle and a bit grassy. Decent, I can imagine this being a good summer quencher.

(Bottle, 0.75 l - BB 30/04/2017, at Stadin Panimobaari, 20150417) The beer poured golden and almost clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, honey and Belgian style yeast. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, tartness, sweetness, Belgian style yeast, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, tart and bitter. A nice complex brew.

Pours clear blonde, good white head. Smell is nice malty, intense. Mild hopyness. Taste is bit bitter, sweet, grainy back. Spelt, indeed, but nicely balanced

Bottle, 75cl. A small, dense, white head forms overn unclear, golden body. The aroma has lots of citrus peel, with milky sourness and some pale malts. Lightly milky sour flavor, citrusy and with some pale malts and bitterness. Rather effervescent, dry on the palate, medium body. Not a favorite of mine in any way, might be interesting if it’s fresh. 130215
