Description
Friekens brouwt al jaren bijzondere bieren op kleine schaal. Ondanks de geringe hoeveelheden wist het bier van Friekens zich in de kijker te spelen doordat het getapt werd op (sub-)culturele festivals als Robodock, Jetlag en Paint & Beer. Inmiddels is de capaciteit van de brouwerij vertienvoudigd, en is Friekens bier klaar voor een breder publiek. Eerst op de ADM, later in Villa Friekens, een gekraakt industrieel complex aan de Landsmeerdijk in Amsterdam-Noord. Nadat Villa Friekens werd ontruimd en ‘herontwikkeld’ tot villawijk verhuisde de Friekens Brouwerij naar Sportpark De Melkweg in Tuindorp Oostzaan. Voorheen brouwde Friekens in een oude zeecontainer

On tap at Friekens. Clear amber colour, off-white head. Aroma of caramel, hint of resin, some lemon peel. Flavour is medium sweet, caramel, toffee, sweet resin, soft lemony hops, a bit grainy, hint of plastic. Light bodied. The pils was more convincing. Lacks a bit of hops imho. --- Beer merged from original tick of A.P.A. Amerikaanse Pale Ale on 24 Feb 2019 at 16:13 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.
