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.

Bottled (thanks Kim N!). Very deep brown colour with a small beige head. Aroma is roasted malts, coffee, some grass, chocolate and mild toffeeish notes. Flavour is roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, mild toffee, some juniper berries and mild vanillaish and wooden notes. Hides the alcohol rather well.

Cask @ In De Wildeman. Dark golden golor, hazy. Aroma’s citrus and wheat. Citrus is particularly strong retronasal, with resin, wheaty, sweet spices and a light acidity. Flavor is lightly sweet with some acidity from both wheat and hops. Light body. Finishes with lots of hops, but not really bitter. Nice experiment, but hopping is so strong you barely notice this is a wheat beer.

On cask at In de Wildeman. Slightly hazy copper colour, soapy white head. Aroma of loads of citrus with some tangy wheat, really fresh smell. Flavour is citrus, lemon, some grapefruit, light floral, soft wheat, firm zesty bitter finish that lingers a bit. Light bodied, oily mouthfeel, no carbonation. Great summer beer, and IMO a great improvement from the bottled (NZ Hallertau + Citra) version I’ve had before.

Bottle @ Home. Pours dark brown with a offwhite head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, caramel, cocunut, peat, whisky. Flavor of malts, wood, peat, whisky, booze. Thin body, lively carbonation, alcoholic fininsh. Pretty nice aroma, but flavor way to heavy on whisky and gets to boozy. 170812

33 cl bottle # home (live rating). Dark red-brown color. Off-white to beige head. Aroma’s: Oak, bit of vanilla, bit whisky, retronasal also roasted & malts (and some more whisky). Flavor a bit roasted bitter, a slight sweetness and has wood-tones all over. Warms the throat. Medium body. Finishes with some roast, more oak and a firm bitterness. Possibly been a bit too long on wood, but a nice attempt anyway, seems to get better with every sip
