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.

Wow, this is dry. Aroma of grainy oat, bread, citrussy hops. Flavour is grainy and bready, with a nice bitterness in the aftertaste. An above-average hoppy Kuit beer.

Aroma of citrus fruits, yeast, some spices, hops. Flavour is fruity, a little sweetness, with a welcome bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice hoppy Tripel that transcends the usual clichés.

Aroma of sweet malt, caramel, fruits, some hops. Flavour is quite caramel malty, some sweetness, with a light to medium bitter finish. A rather heavily malted/caramel IPA, good but I like my IPA more fresh and fruity.

Aroma of dark malt, caramel, lots of wood, spicy notes, some liquorice. Flavour is moderate sweet with a nice moderate to medium bittersweet finish. Nice one, definitely a step up from the base beer.

Aroma of citrus, orange peel, funky Saison yeast, spicy notes, hops. Flavour is light sweet and moderate tart with a surprisingly bitter finish. Dry and refreshing. Lively carbonation. Being a fan of bitter citrus peel in beer, I rather like this one. Another winner from Ramses.
