We created this beer together with Mikkel Borg of Denmark, the creative mind behind the Mikkeller beer brand.
We wanted to make a beer that would express the encounter between the two artists with each bringing to the planning table his world and his love and create something new that none of us has yet done without the chains of style or tradition. So we made The beer of Milk & Honey - From the land of milk & honey With milk and honey and oranges. The result is a completely different beer Dark, thick, sweet beer, with flavors of honey and orange chocolate and a surprising smooth body, a dessert beer for a good meal or just to savor on its own.

From tap at Uiltje Bar, Haarlem, during Mikkeller tap takeover. Aroma is sweet dark malt, soft roast, zesty orange, creamy lactose, chocolate, vanilla, touch of honey sweetness, dessert. Flavour is rather sweet with a mild bitterness in the finish. Body is full. Rather heavy on the sweetness for my taste, but good dessert honey candy Porter.

(Bottle) Black colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of coffee, raisins, treacle, honey, prunes and orange peel. Malty, roasted taste with coffee, honey, prunes, raisins, chocolate, orange peel, burnt sugar, toffee, lactose and a mild coffee bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, sweet. Tasty and well made, but too sweet and not overly complex. Still, nice one.
