Sintel is geinspireerd door de Belgische Bière de Garde bieren, die zijn gemaakt om te bewaren. Deze batch is extra stevig in alcohol, wat samen met de rokerige toets van de geroosterde wilgenbast een verwarmend effect heeft. Ideaal voor de koude dagen van het jaar.

0.375 l bottle from 'Craftbeers', batch #3, 2024 vintage. Slow gusher. Hazy, dark reddish amber with a medium large, foamy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, gently funky and vinous-fruity aroma of caramel, brett, leather, red berries, red wine and some oak. Minimally sweetish, quite sour, gently vinous-fruity and slightly funky taste of lemon, red wine, red berries, oak, caramel and a touch of leather, followed by a medium long, fairly tart, slightly woody-dry finish. Medium body, quite astringent and fairly effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Probably my final ever Nevel brew, as interesting as usual, fairly complex stuff.

(Draft at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 16 Aug 2025) Hazy brownish amber colour with brief head. Fruity nose with notes of oak wood, dried fruit and hints of vinegar. Fruity, tart taste with oak wood, vinegar, dried fruit, caramel, spices and yeast. Hardly any bitterness. Almost full body, with a slight sweetness. Tart, woody and complex. Interesting. Very nice.

Bottle. Gusher. Dark brown with big beige head. Sweet malts, chestnuts, overripe peach, touch is moke, bread crust, black berries, light yeast. Medium sweet and sour, less bitter. Over medium bodied. Quite different from the earlier batches, quite nice stuff again!
