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.

Cask handpull at Samuel Peto, JDW, Folkestone. Copper brown colour with lasting cream head. Sweet fruit salad on the flavour. No faults in brewing just terribly sweet and too sweet to be pleasant.

30cl bottle at De Beiaard, Spui, Amsterdam on 18th March 2010. Pours gold with a small white head. Rich and hoppy with a slightly savoury note in the main kick. Blend of grapefruit and grass hop and a touch of citrus on the tongue. Dry hoppy finish. Slight cheese aromas complete a generally rounded flavour palate. Delicious.

Small off-white head over clear foxy-orange beer. Oil for French fries, little sourish hint, caramelmalt. Sharpish caramel/toasted flavour, light-coloured malts, again a light sourish touch retronasal. Reasonably well-bodied, quite slick, some alcohol presence; slightly burning MF. Reasonable Bock, certainly for a bio product. Just the nose coming over as rather ominous.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin lazing tan head. The aroma has strong notes of caramel, malt, and nuts. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of nuts and caramel, on a malty and bready back ground, leading to a very dry nutty finish.

A red beer with chunks of yeast floating around below a disappearing orange head. The is primarily sweet while the flavor is sweet and dry. Too simple.
