Description
Filosofie

In onze brouwerij gaat het in de eerste plaats om kwaliteit. Het is dan ook de bedoeling om hoogwaardige bieren aan te bieden die gebrouwen zijn in onze eigen brouwerij op basis van eigen recepten.

Dit kan enkel door gebruik te maken van de beste ingrediënten, kleinschalig te werken en vooral door onze jarenlange ervaring te combineren met heel veel enthousiasme.

Onze hop wordt geselecteerd samen met de hoppeboer op onze Belgische velden.

330ml bottle @ 4AD, Diksmuide watching Dries the one man blues band and Left Lane Cruiser. Pours a misty blonde, large white head. Nicely sweet with cereal malt rising through. Not bad.

Rather dense yellow head, stable, over deep garnet, brilliant beer, lacey. Sweet, woody, dried fruit as plums, dates, figs; molasses, fusels, vanilla, condensed sweetened milk, milkchocolate. Sharpish bitter, fruity flavours. Fruit-filled chocolate, vanilla, wood, liquorice, booze. Very thick and viscous, oily despite good carbonation. Alcoholheat. Sweet - maybe just a tad too much liquorice for a top Barley Wine as from the States or the UK. Still, not unmeritory. Txs to Stef!

Bottle via Ward - many thanks!
A: clear yellow, small,, foamy, white head.
A: coriander, wheat, lemon zest, potato, soap.
T: sweetish apple, sourish lemon, soapy coriander.
F: floral hops, spicy coriander, apple, lemon, some warming vodka-like alcohol.
P: medium body, slick texture, average carbonation.
Easily drinkable; bit too soapy as is often the case with Fort Lapin. Congrats (again) to your newborn, Ward, but allow me to crack open a different bottle (obviously bought at Stacks) more to my liking ;-)

Aroma of fruit, citrus, yeast, spice, coriander. Flavour is fruity, yeasty, spicy, light to moderate sweetness. Body is a bit on the thin side. An okay, just average Tripel.

Aroma of sweet dark malt, caramel, overripe fruits, candy sugar, spices, some liquorice and anise. Flavour is quite sugary and sweet. A bit on the thin side for a Quad. Okay at best, nothing I’ll revisit.

Bottle at home. Aroma is herbs and spices, clove, speculaas, candy sugar, cinnamon, dark malt, liquorice. Flavour is rather sweet and cloying, a bit sticky. Body is medium. Spicebomb, not for me.
