Description
In 2013 the idea of brewing in a cellar in Oud Geleen was born. In 2015 the first commercial beer called Hop Bokje Hop was launched. At the end of 2016 already 100 liters were brewed in a traditional way in a garage. But the popularity became even greater and that is why a new micro brewery was opened in Krawinkel Geleen in 2017! Still traditional but with a few more liters ...

Burk från SB. Gyllengul aningen disig vätska med medelhögt vitt skum som lägger sig relativt snabbt. En ganska urtvättad och clean wit men iaf en mjuk vetekropp men lätt syrlighet. Men saknar annars det mest som jästighet, kryddor och karaktär. Men bra törstsläckare. Ok

Colour is pale golden, slightly hazy (not poured completely), small frothy white head, disappeares quickly only small foamy rim remains). Aroma sweet malt, yeast, grain, light apricot, hint caramel. Flavour medium sweet and bitter, grain, yeasty, spicy, some alcohol. Medium body, oily to watery texture, rather short sweetbitter aftertaste, sweet malts, alcohol. Decent tripel but overall to thin and lack of body.

Ej, to jest slodkie! Granda. Ale za to nie ma chyba kolendry czy tam symbolicznie. Ma chyba jakies skorki pomaranczowe wyczowalne. Spoko
