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.

Nagy, tartós, piszkosfehér hab, félbarna szín. Malátás, füstös, teás illat. Malátás alapon füstös, teás ízvilág. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, enyhén kesernyés. Az első teás sör, ami igazán ízlik. Jól eltalálták.

Thnx to Andy. Pours unclear pinkish red. Ok white head. Smell is very full earthy , mild fruity undertone. Taste is earthy, mild bitter touch. Very mild maltyness. Ok. Mostly beetroot, really. Earlier Rating: 1/1/2017 Total Score: 3.5Pours peachy red/amber. Good white head. Smell is very earthy. I guess beetroot , but i dont know that taste. Taste is full, pure earthyness. I am guessing again thats the beetroot. Late taste has a very nice (!) Maltyness though, as well as a medium bitterness. Bit dry. Not too big of a fan of the beetroot, yet i don’t seem to actually dislike it either. But the maltyness here is great.

At Cambrinus, Bruges. Pours clear dark golden/amber with a frothy, off-white head. The aroma contains hops, sugar, grass, yeast, flowers and herbs. It tastes medium sweet and medium bitter, with a medium long, dry finish. Slick texture, soft carbonation, not that full a body. A very soft IPA and a good appetizer.

Thank you kraddel & tderoeck! Sampled 330 ml. bottle @ VCBF 2017. Hazy orange, solid white bubbles head. Nose is mellow grain, hay, stone fruit, white grape. Touch empty, high carbonation. Low bitter grass, white grape, hay, fruit, low cereal, near metallic. Good but too accessible for me I think & I expected something bit more brutal given the dry hopped moniker.
