Description
For years we brewed beers in our basement when we read an article in October 2010 about the Brouwland beer competition.We decided to risk our chances and sent our version of a Trappist beer, a dark beer, full malt, of 10%.In March 2011 we were informed that we were selected for the final. Beginning in April 2011 was ultimately the final.The seven finalist beers were tasted by beer connoisseurs, Zythologists Rijckers Anne and Yannick De Cocteau and some Belgian brew masters like Paul Arnott (Dubuisson), and Jean-Marie De Rock (Orval). The first beers were tasted and judged one for one, much was noted. Mutually there was not much talk together ,until they started our beer (the final seven beers were tasted in order of alcohol). All jurors began to talk to each other and two of them even gave us a thumbs up. Then, we knew it was good. After fifteen minutes of deliberations they announced the winner … Vliegend Paard Brouwers from Oedelem with their Préaris Quadrupel.

Bottle from Dranken Geers, Oostakker, Nr Gent, Belgie, consumed at home Saturday 16th May 2015 Murky brown with a creamy and sticky tan head. The barrel ageing is quite subtle considering it spent 11 months sat in the Cognac casks. The beer is absolutely fine, some spice, fruity, smooth and yet it does lack flavour in fact it’s a tad thin if truth be known. A6 A3 T7 P3 Ov13 3.2

At ZBF 15. Thnx for sharing, everyone ! Pours unclear brown, smell is pure peat. Taste is more peat, very intensely. Not my thing at all, and I can’t even say this is balanced.....

Bottled. Reddish brown colour with a big foamy brown head, that leaves lace. Aroma is quite strong on the coffee, and also has some slight toffee, ripe fruits, mild nuttiness as well as some slight notes of alcohol. Flavour is really dark roasted, but tasty, coffee, along with some ripe fruits, mild alcohol as well as some nutty and slightly spicy notes. Quite a pleasant brew, where the alcohol really suits the rest of the beer well.
