Description
Stadsbrouwerij de Dikke brouwt traditioneel Wijks Kuytbier naar de Utrechtse ordonantie van 1495. Hierin staat beschreven dat Kuytbier gebrouwen moest worden met een zeer groot gedeelte Haver als mout, de grondstof voor bier.
Omdat gewoon water vroeger niet gezond was om te drinken dronk iedereen bier. Door het brouwproces was bier betrouwbaarder dan water. Zelfs kinderen dronken bier, de dunne variant met 2% alcohol.
Het Wijkse bier was een zogenaamd dikbier (hoog alcohol-percentage van 6,5%). Vandaar de door ons gekozen naam.

33 cl. bottle @ home, gift from Luc.
Hazy dark golden with a thin white head. Tropical fruit aroma with some malt sweetness. Sweet taste with a low-bitter finish. Smooth mouthfeel but a bit lacking in carbonation. Would be more lively with some added CO2.

Bottle. Dark amber color. Malt, caramel and hints of plums in the aroma. Malty caramelly sweet flavor with pear and floral notes. Uninteresting and sticky.

Bottle [from trade with RW80] @ home. Typical barley wine reddish dark amber color, small off-white head. Smell and taste malts, caramelish, some notes of raisins, quite bitter, some alcohol present in the flavor but that's no surprise and is ok in a barley wine I'd say. Decent body, a bit thin texture, decent carbonation. Ok. Edit: gets better and more smooth after a while. Up to 3.6 from a 3.3.
