Description
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.

Bouteille 33cl de Délices&Caprices, BB 19/11/2015. Dorée, col épais blanc crémeux. Arôme offre un bouquet épicé rappelant la coriandre avec un léger côté écorce d’orange. Le malt reste quant à lui dans un style très belge. Palais sur une effervescence haute, épices, houblonné restant fort noble et très belge. Léger herbacé avec un fini tirant sur le maïs. Épaisse en bouche avec ce profil avoine. Malt restant basique, pils, pâle léger. Les 4 épices mentionnées sur l’étiquette ne brillent pas par leur présence. Je semble juste y déceler coriandre et pointe d’orange.

Draught @ Bier- & Eetcafé Gollem, Antwerp. Pours hazy pale straw with airy off-white head. Clear aroma of malt, caramel and hops, with notes of fruit. Sweetish and slightly dusty flavour of malt and yeast, with honts of leaves, caramel and fruit, and bitter, hoppy notes. Carbonation is lively although below medium. Bitter aftertaste with leafy notes. A nice one.

Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks beerandbeyond. Cloudy yellow with a white head. Aroma of yeast, fruity esters, spiciness and an alcoholic note. Flavor has light sweetness at first, fruity and spicy, continues dry and yeasty with a spicy bitter note in the finish. Medium-bodied. A bit alcoholic for 6.2%.
