Description
Once upon a time four beer lovers came together to brew a beer… such a simple thing can start something bigger. During brewing wild plans were made, there were even some good ideas and a spark of ambition started to emerge. “Are we able to brew a decent beer?” was the question and the rest is history…

Rob de Zwaan & co. Brew their beers at Koperen Kat in Delft.

From tap at a metal festival. Aroma is malty with soft hops, metallic notes (ironically), caramel toffee, and a hint of fruits. Flavour is above moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Drinkable beer but not much of an IPA, way too heavy on the caramel malts and lacking fruity hops.

From tap at a metal festival. Nicely fruity and estery aroma with ripe fruits, spicy and herbal-ish, notes of stone fruits, apricot, soft malt, spicy yeast. Flavour is moderate sweet. Nice fruity and estery Tripel, not too sweet, a pleasant surprise.

Bottle from a local bottle shop. Aroma is vanilla, malt, ripe fruits, pear, ripe banana, sugary fruits, soft notes of jenever. Flavour is sweet without the booziness you'd expect, bit sticky texture. Body is medium to full. Quite a sweet Tripel with lots of vanilla and sugary fruits.

tap at LIB'18, Leiden: Hazy orange colored brew with an dry bitter taste with some sweetness. Hints of citrus, banana, caramel and coriander. The brewer call this one an Weizen IPA and must say its taste like that way.
