't Swaart van Cabeliau is een sterk ongefilterd bier. Met vier mouten, oranjeschillen, koriander en de passie van de brouwer. Een stevig speciaalbier zoals de naam doet vermoeden met complexe smaaktonen: subtiel kruidig en een beetje fruitig. En met, net als de voorgaande bieren van Brouwerij de Die, een historisch Alkmaars verhaal erachter.

Het Alkmaarse speciaalbier is vernoemd naar Jacobus Cabeliau, bevelvoerder van Alkmaar in 1573. Cabeliau of Cabeljauw, kreeg als dank voor zijn diensten voor de stad Alkmaar een zwaard aangeboden. Dit zwaard bevindt zich in het Rijksmuseum te Amsterdam, en een replica is te zien in het Stadhuis van Alkmaar.

Met een alcoholpercentage van 8,0% is dit een stevig najaarsbier.
Previously brewed at Stadsbrouwerij Radboud

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Bierwinkel Alkmaar. Clear amber with a thin white head. Coriander aroma with orange and some malty caramel. Taste is sweet and a bit spicy. Too low on carbonation I think. This coupled with the sweetness makes it a bit cloying and does not invite to take another sip. Mediocre.
