About
The brewery farmhouse in Kerkom (anno 1878) is so much more than just a brewery or a farm. It has become the road house of dreams from walkers, cyclists, beer tasters and pleasure lovers, where everyone has a good time. The Kerkom Brewery is 100% traditional and proud to be so. This is namely a place where real beer is still brewed. From the hops to the Bink beer, every step of the process is done manually. A beer with a story and hence a real experience !

5.8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 5.5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
0.33l bottle(s) at Pivska Školica 2025. Clear golden body, thick white head. Green apple and light citric, corianderish touches in the aroma, with a soft malty undertone. Apple touches, soft light floral notes, honeyish malty backbone, light spicy phenolic and herbal touches by the finish. Meaty-yeasty signs of autolysis at the finish bringing it down. Questionably malty profile, not the most spot on of yeasty profiles, but hey, I guess the coriander/peel did some okay work... Expected far better to be fully fair.

Pours a quite hazy deep orange, not too attractive in colour. Nice head though. Average sized, pretty dense, good retention and excellent lacing. Average to high intensity in the aroma: a sugary, slightly doughish soft base, followed by quite strong fruity notes (pear, orange, peach from most to less vivid, all with a candied fruit character to them), light spiciness, a herbal/balsamic hint. Very nice aroma, perhaps not super defined. Taste notes follow the aroma quite closely, with that herbal/balsamic presence a bit more evident in finish/aftertaste. Perhaps slightly less intense than the aroma suggested but still nicely vivid; good depth, fair taste definition. Medium to high sweetness, low to medium bitterness. Has quite some sugary character but it feels overall pretty clean and the finish is definitely dry enough; all in all pretty well balanced. Well hidden alcohol, a light warming hint. Medium to dense body, average, light-bubbled carbonation (probably a bit less less carbonated than usual per style); a nice semi-fulll, quite soft, slightly creamy mouthfeel. Very nice tripel.

The fruity, yeasty aroma is alright, but the sickly sweetness killed this beer for me. I am not a fan of sweet Strong Ales and Tripels. This is way out of balance.

Bottle at home. Aroma is ripe dark fruits, dried fruits, plum, raisins, liquorice, malt, yeast, caramel, toffee, spicy notes, some nutmeg. Flavour is sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Rather heavy sweetish spiced winter beer. Okay.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is dark malt, caramel, toffee, nuts, dried fruits, raisins, spicy notes, yeast. Flavour is above medium sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium and a bit creamy. Not really my kind of beer, but it has some pleasant easy smoothness and slightly creamy body. Not bad.

Аромат сильный. Сразу ощущаются нотки кофе и немного шоколада. Также есть слива и нотки винограда, немного темных фруктов, также ванильная сладость. Цвет очень темный, тело прямо на вид очень плотное и маслянистое. Пена очень тонкая, кофейная на вид. Вкус очень тяжелого пиваса. Алкашка вылезает иногда даже при маленьких глотках. Но при этом вкус тоже сильный. Прежде всего поражает много какао кофейных ноток в пиве, что не очень свойственно данному стилю. Немного темных фруктов. При глотке начинается сладость, при чем она очень усиливается и долго держится, даже немного приторно становится. Отдает ванилью и коричневым сахаром. В общем хорошее но очень алкогольное и тягучее пиво.

Kräutrig-hefiger, herb-alkoholischer Beginn. Süffig, hellmalzig, der Alkohol bleibt präsent und stört auch etwas. Würzig, brotig, ok. 9/8/8/8/8/8
