Nu is er ook de Mox Ruby. “Het is een biertje geworden van 5,5% waaraan ik gedroogde hibiscus toegevoegd heb”, zegt Jef. “Dat geeft het brouwsel zijn unieke roze kleur en eveneens een theeachtige smaak.” Ook voor de Mox Ruby heeft de brouwer al concrete plannen. “Dat wordt een Belgisch witbier, iets wat ik nooit eerder brouwde. Voor de Mox Sapphire denk ik eraan om iets speciaals te doen met water.”

A clear dark golden beer with a big off white head. Aroma of caramelized and spicy malt, red berries. Taste of strong caramelized malt, nuts, biscuit, berries, high carbonation.

The third in a series of DOM brews dedicated to a type of card game originating in the nineties; apparently the brewer intends to link a beer to each of the cards, which seem to be coveted collector's items among devotees of the game. Thanks to tderoeck for sharing. Moussy, frothy, stable, pale pinkish-tinged off-white head, hazy rosy-amber-glowing peach blonde robe. Aroma of indeed hibiscus but sweeter than I am used to from this ingredient, tulips and roses even, herb tea, honey, brioche bread, soap (probably just that hibiscus again), melon, rosewater. Fruity, sweet onset, ripe pear, melon and banana, fizzy carbonation, softish body; a very pronounced soapy and flowery hibiscus effect lies heavily on a frail bready malt sweetish core, developing further into bergamot-like citrusiness and tea-like herbaceousness, becoming a tad wry in the end - while the basics of the beer, malts and hops, are a bit lost under this overdose of hibiscus. I never liked hibiscus in beer to begin with and this one does it very much 'in your face' so this was never going to be 'my beer', but I must admit that it is quite daring and technically well made - so the lovers of flower-flavoured beers must taste this one.

20/I/23 - 33cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent), shared @ Wim’s place, BB: +3Y, bottled: 14/II/22, batch: moxruby001 (2023-77)
Clear reddish orange to amber beer, big creamy off-white head, stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: weird, sweetish impression, some hibiscus indeed, bubble gum, raspberry jam. MF: lively carbon, medium to light body. Taste: bitter start, weird, dry, spicy, dusty, a bit chemical, sugary as well, very weird. Aftertaste: malty touch, fruity notes, some hibiscus, dry and bitter finish.
