Para celebrar nuestros 5 años como cervecería creamos una cerveza que combina cinco tipos de malta y cinco variedades de lúpulos. Era la primera cerveza chilena en formato de botella de 750cc y la primera cerveza chilena madurada con roble americano tostado, proceso que agrega cremosa una textura y complejidad aromática sorprendente. Kross 5 es de un color cobrizo profundo y entrega notas a avellanas, toffee, vainilla y caramelo con un largo y agradable retrogusto.

Süßlich rauchiger Beginn. Hefig, dunkelmalzig werden, dabei röstig und vielmehr karamellig. Toffee, harzig, dunkle vollmundige Noten mit geringer Bitterkeit. Leicht bananiges Finish. Ein intensives, vielschichtiges und sehr rundes Bier – spitze! 10/13/12/12/12/12

750ml bottle. Reddish brown with thin tan head. Sweet caramel malt aroma, taste is identical. Sweetness is at the edge. Soft carbonation compared to many other Belgian strong ales, the same applies to the complete lack of yeast notes. Not that bad, though.

Fine-looking bottle. Dark reddish brown with a beige head. Vinous aroma with berries, caramel and young oak. Syrupy mouthfeel. Sweet with oaky fortified wine, chocolate, dark fruits, cola. Some sweetshop spices in a finish that just hints at bitterness. Interesting beer that’s as much like an old ale than it is a BSA. [3.4] Small bottle that’s nearly as pretty as the big one. Brown with a beige head that fades to a coat. Aroma: Berries, dried fruit, bread, Port, oak. Sweet w cola, dark fruit; vinous with a bit of oak at the end. Tasty, but not very lively feeling in the mouth. Solid, interesting beer that it’s good to see in Australia again.

Muddy dark brown color; big head. The aroma is strange, but not for this bad: dust, apricots and apricot jam, caramel. Sweet flavor, malt, without depth, and good caramel; correct bitterness. Peculiar but good Strong Belgian Ale, sweet.
