Description
In the beginning, in 2004, the Lupulus brewery was built to brew beers for the tavern next door. In 2007, the brewery decided to create a new beer, in kegs and in Champagne bottles. The brewers wanted to offer a traditional beer with its own unique flavour, using modern equipment. The region where the brewery is based gave the brewers the inspiration they were looking for. The brewery is housed in a magnificent old 19th century farm, a part of Ardennes heritage. The installation is based in the middle of surrounding green fields, beside a freshwater stream. The historical record is sketchy, but we know that wolves populated the Ardennes landscape in olden times. Some say that these wolf-packs came from Slovenia, where the best hops in the world are cultivated... True story? In any case, the wolf was behind the creation of a new beer: Lupulus. The name derives from the Latin name of the hop plant Humulus Lupulus, which means Small Humble Wolf.

Pours hazed blonde. Small white head. Scent is wheat, mild herbal hops. Not as fruity or expressive as hoped. Taste is kinda weak. Mild bitterness. very little hoparoma - not at all bursting with fruit. very short finish. Doesn't meet expectarions, provided by the self-given description on the can.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown / black with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out Belgian yeast, candi sugar, burnt sugars, and bready caramel. Flavour is full of burnt dark sugars, Belgian yeast, and burnt bready caramel. Burnt sugars, bready malt, and messy booze on the finish. Decent, but overrated.

On tap at Alkmaars Bierhuis, pours a cloudy pale golden with a large white head. Nose brings out doughy notes, some black pepper, and spicy Belgian yeast. Flavour is dry and spicy, with bright Belgian yeast, spicy black pepper, and some doughy notes. Not at the top tier of Belgian tripels, but the yeast expression is unique and interesting. Nicely made.

Blik gedeeld met Roelzie. Hey is een troebel geel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van tropische vruchten en hop. De smaak is vol, fruitig, zacht zoet en tropical.
