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.

Thick creamy beige head stayed on a very dark brown still body. Dark sweet coffee, plum , dark fruit & caramel aromas, slightly boozy. Smells fantastic! Smooth, thick & creamy to the fore with a sharper tingly back. On the front it’s quite sweet with coffee, dark sugar & malt this slowly dissipates over the tongue to light fruity tastes with a tang & slightly bitter coffee & aniseed aft.
