Description
The Budelse Brouwerij (Budels Brewery) is a family business that still values the traditions that have guided the brewery for centuries now. It's been at the very heart of the village of Budel in Brabant since 1870. Founded 150 years ago by Gerardus Arts as Brouwerij de Hoop (the Hope Brewery). Today, the fourth generation of the Arts family is at the helm and we are just as committed to the brewing as our ancestors.

33 cl bottle at La Despensa Ecológica, Madrid. Pours hazy pale yellow, white head. Aroma is coriander, lemon and porridge, quite nice. Mouth is light, soft but wide. In the end there’s no bitterness and a hint of corn flakes.

Very sweet with sour end turn. Looks disgusting with scabs floating around. Palate is weird and taste is weak in the beginning, sour aggressive, takes some getting used to. When taste settles it’s actually a pretty good radler, but ruined by a flavour like it’s been drunk from a soapy glass. Bottle from EcoPlaza Supermarket. --- Beer merged from original tick of Radler on 15 Jul 2015 at 18:25 - Score: 4. Original review text: Een solide 2! Voor de smerige radler van Budels...

A Dutch ’edelbier’ hovering between a Belgian strong blonde and a Belgian strong dark. Moussy, pale greyish beige, fairly stable head leaving a pretty, dustweb-shaped lacing after a while; colour a deep orangey copper, fully transparent and clear, with vivid sparkling. Sweet and malty aroma of honey, butterscotch, coriander seed, clear pasteurisation, cookie dough, banana liqueur, toasted bread, candied orange, lots of brown sugar, cognac, weaker hints of sweet cherry candy, liquorice, iced tea, rotting grass and some unmistakable ’damp cloth’, plus a faint hint of onsetting oxidation - this bottle is not as fresh as expected, apparently. Sweet onset, honeyishly sugary, candied fruit, raisins, some red apple peel astringency, fairly full and softish mouthfeel, slightly metallic with medium carbo; resiny, bittersweetish coriander is obvious, as is a bourbon- or brandy-like alcohol presence which already becomes a bit wry on the tongue before swallowing. Underneath, there is a straightforwardly caramelly and smoothly toasted maltiness. Finish is lingering candied or honeyish sweetness, a little bit cloying, lingering caramelly malts, some herbal hop bitterness for balance without becoming truly bittering and the expected fair dose of brandy-like alcohol, not just warming, but actually burning a bit; the coriander provides a certain amount of resiny ’drought’. Too alcoholic, too artificially sweet and could do with some more body (actually refermenting it in the bottle would already prove helpful!), this is not a very subtle beer, but still enjoyable alright if you like your ’Belgians’ sweet and big on alcohol.
