About
De kazematten aan het Houten Paard werden gebouwd rond 1680 naar plannen van Vauban, de grote vestingingenieur van Lodewijk XIV. Deze drie unieke kazematten of soutterains maken deel uit van de 17e Eeuwse vestingen die de stad Ieper omwallen.Gedurende de eeuwen werden deze souterrains gebruikt als opslagplaats voor munitie en legermaterieel. Ze deden ook dienst als slaap- en schuilplaats voor de troepen die Ieper tijdens de vele belegeringen hebben verdedigd. Zo richtten de Britse troepen tijdens Wereldoorlog I de kazematten in als 'mess' voor de officieren. Hun commandopost, rustplaats en veldhospitaal werden in 'Hotel de Remparts', zoals de kazematten ironisch werden genoemd, ondergebracht. Ook de Britse soldatenkrant The Wipers Times werd er gedrukt. En nu is er dus een stadsbrouwerij op deze unieke locatie.

11.2 oz bottle. Great body. Spices are well incorporated, but take it in a little different direction. Body carries it. OK.

"Wipers Times Dubbel", Fläschchen von Belgoshop.de, 5.7.2026. - Rotbraun, trüb; übermäßige Schaumbildung. - In der Nase süßes dunkles Malz, Mokka, Toffee, verhaltene belgische Hefe, leicht weinige Züge, Anklänge an Anis und Rosinen, milde herbale Hopfung. - Antrunk unerwartet leicht dunkel- und röstmalzig mit milder Karamelsüße. Erst allmählich schält sich intensive Röstmalzigkeit mit Mokka heraus, garniert mit feiner zitroniger Hopfung und sehr dezenten Gewürznoten: sowohl Sternanis wie Gewürznelke halten sich sehr zurück, die leise Lakritznote ist unaufdringlich und durch blumige Noten ausbalanciert (das Etikett spricht von Apfel und Orangenblüten). Milder rezent, schlank aber mit Tiefe, schön trocken. Im Abgang verhaltene aber nicht zu knappe herbale Hopfung. - Ungewöhnlich gutes, perfekt komponiertes Dubbel, das unauffällig beginnt aber durch elegante Gewürz- und Fruchtaromen punktet. Prima!

Smell of fruit, faint pepper. Hazy golden colour, small white head. Aroma of yeast, fruit, herbs, some peppery and strawy notes. Fruitiness disturbes. Soft carbon. Lightly sour, lightly bitter.

Bottle. Caramel malt aroma with notes of grainy malt, lemon, vanilla, lemongrass and spicy Belgian yeast. Pours cloudy golden-caramel colored with a finger of tan head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with caramel malt, grainy malt and lemongrass flavors. Finishes smooth and a bit dry with spicy Belgian yeast, lemony citrus and vanilla flavors. A little different from traditional tripels but tasty.
