Tsjeeses was brewed for the first time in 2004 but not under that name because we didn’t find a name yet. Different code names like "Dangerous Blonde”, “New Years Blond” were used in 2004 and 2005. While brewing the same beer in 2006, our team got so hit by the beer, at a certain point, somebody said: “Tsjeeses what a great beer”. This batch was bourbon barrel aged.

(had as Struise Tsjeeses Reserva 2014 Maker’s Mark 3 Years Cask Strength). Copper colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is bourbon, some caramel, toffee, alcohol and some mild raisins, dates and mild chocolaty tones. Flavour is having a slightly spicy edge along with the bourbon, toffee, alcohol, raisins, dates and some slight wooden tones. Somewhat smooth.

Fles gedeeld door Inoven, geprobeerd met BartvG en JoepvW. Het is een oranjerood bier met weinig schuim. De smaak is zoet fruitig en houtachtig.
