Description
Op zijn zeventiende vertrok Ramses Snoeij naar zijn vader in Amerika. Rond 1990 werd daar het eerste Ramses Bier gebrouwen in Oregon, aan de westkust van de Verenigde Staten. Na zijn terugkeer in Nederland koos hij in 2007 ervoor zijn brouwhobby commercieel aan te pakken. Zijn eerste commerciële brouwsel was Willem Bever dat in 2007 werd geïntroduceerd. De bieren van Ramses Bier werden aanvankelijk gebrouwen met behulp van de brouwfaciliteiten van Bierbrouwerij De 3 Horne in Kaatsheuvel. Hier werden brouwsels gebrouwen van 700-800 liter. De proefbrouwsels werden in Wagenberg gebrouwen en hadden een volume van 50-60 liter. In februari 2013 werd een eigen bedrijfsruimte opgeleverd met een nieuwe brouwinstallatie die een brouwcapaciteit van 1.500 liter heeft.

(Bottle, Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 27 July 2013) Dark reddish brown colour with huge, dense, beige head. Malty, slightly smoky nose with notes of caramel, dark fruit, asphalt and dark bread. Malty taste with dark fruit, caramel, asphalt, a touch of smoke and a certain spicy bitterness. Almost full body, with a touch of sweetness. Quite complex and a bit weird. Quite nice though.

Bottle. It pours an unclear, orange to golden body and a dense, white head. Weak aroma with pale malts, chalk and some citrus peel. Pretty much the same in the flavor, some bitterness towards the finish. Not my choice of beer, but it’s drinkable. 130906

Bottle thanks to Douberd and the European Local Swap II. Brown colour with an off-white head with good duration and medium lacing. Aroma is hoppy, floral and resins notes, toasted malts as well. Flavor is strong bittery with a good duration, notes of toffee and caramel. The final has a decent bitterness and moderate dry.

(Draught at Drie Dorstige Herten, Utrecht, 25 July 2013) Reddish amber colour with frothy beige head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty, fruity nose with resin, blood orange and toasty malt. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of toasty malt, caramel, blood orange, black-currant and a generous citric, resinous bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with balanced sweetness. Solid and well made IPA. Nice one.

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, dark orangey golden colour with average, frothy to macropore, diminishing, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity, yeasty aroma, hints of tangerine, gooseberry, grainy, grassy, and mossy overtones remind of a lawn in spring. Taste is dry fruity, hints of gooseberry, rhubarb, a strawy touch, minimally tart and astringent. Untypical, hop-emphasized Heller Bock with disregarded malt side.

The aroma is a bit stale and cheesy. Luckily it does not spoil the flavour too much. Flavour has some bitter citrus peel and is fresher and less sweet than a typical Tripel.

Tap at the Haarlem Beer Festival 2013. Poured a hazy bright orange with a frothy white head. The aroma is of dry yeast leading to a strong bitter flavour, with lots of hoppy notes and a little yeast on the smooth and refreshing palate.
