Smoked eel has long been a specialty of the Siphon restaurant. The eels are smoked in a hut right beside the brewery. We huddle around the ashes on Autumn brew-days.
Cendre is a blend of styles from a variety of countries, with the chocolate malt character of a British stout, the seductive melon and pine profile of an American IPA and the drying citrus qualities of a Belgian Saison.
Malt: pale, munich, special b, chocolate, chocolate wheat. Hops: Citra. Yeast: saison EBC: 78.

Bottle picked up Dranken Vande Woude, Pervijde Diksmuide, West Flanders, Belgium, had this Sunday 29th April 2018 whilst getting ready Chicken with Thyme and Lemon and Smashed Garlic Potatoes and a Fig Marscapone Ice Cream for dessert. Pours black or almost black with a big foamy off white head. More BIPA than Saison but, the yeast does add a little spice and it is quite refreshing. A little roasty and hoppy at the same time, fruity with a pleasant tangy bite. Like this. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov15 3.7

Cloudy dark brown colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have a real mix of spicy yeast, bitter, grassy hop and dark sweet malts. Light funk in the finish.

Thanks to tderoeck, Bierridder_S & Rubin77. Sampled draft @ Brugs Bier Festival 2018. Dark brown, creamy coffee tanned head. Nose is nice blue cheese hop, very raw bitter coffee, interesting plum syrup. Taste is massively bitter coffee, lingering bitter, raw, dry, empty otherwise but still nice very harsh with low cheese & touch plum. Harsh but nice & tasty brew.
