Description
Looking for the real taste of Antwerp? Since 1833, there has been just one address: our Antwerp City Brewery. Because when people get together in Antwerp, they do so more often than not with a Bolleke Koninck in their hand. And that’s how De Koninck has become synonymous with Antwerp –and vice-versa. Every day, we work hard to uphold this proud tradition while also experimenting on ways to perfect and reinvent the taste of Antwerp.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a medium tan head and a hazy amber brown body (not ruby red). Aroma of alcohol, a little bit of fruit, a bakery and not much else. Flavor is fruit, spice, raisin and dark fruits. Lively bubbles and a dry mouthfeel.

Bottled (Belgian Shop). Hazy golden colour with big white foamy head. Some lace. Aroma is a lot of sweet fruits, some sweet malts as well as some spices and a bit earthy notes as well. Flavour is being quite much the same with the alcohol giving a slight sweetish kick that fits the beer very well. Spicy and fruity aftertaste.

Overall Impression: Pretty standard of the style, nice beer, but not something you would want to go out of your way for. Overall, it is a nice example of the sweet and yeasty beer it is trying to be, but doesn't go much beyond there...

Light brown colour. Slightly malty aroma. Very thin, watery texture. An unusual triple as it is very similar in flavour to a regular De Koninck, except for the extra kick of the alcohol.
