Description
Client brewer Brouwerij Bello is an initiative of hobby brewer Kelvin Hoogeboom. The name Bello refers to the local Bellopad, a well-known walking path over a former railway line. The steam locomotive 'Bello' raced through Vinkeveen, the brewer's place of residence, via this railway line until the 1850s and still proves its service on the current steam train line Hoorn-Medemblik. In addition, Bello is a corruption of the Italian word 'Bellissimo', which means beautiful or wonderful and that is exactly what Bello wants to serve: beautiful beer from Vinkeveen.

Dorada casi limpia de abundante espuma jabonosa duradera. Aroma cereal, plátano. En boca es ligera con buen punto de gas. Agradablemente malteada, con trigo bien presente y el característico sabor a plátano con toques especiados. Amargor moderado y final seco.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, redd-ish, dark amber colour with huge, frothy, collapsing, off-white head. Slightly chocolately, caramel malty aroma, hints of toffee, milk chocolate, caramel lozenge. Taste is sweet-ish, caramel malty, hints of caramel, toffee, white coffee.
Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium to coarse, prickly carbonation.
Sweet, watery, overcarbonated - not convincing.

Can from Bierwinkel Hop, Amersfoort. Aroma is dried fruits with notes of plum, malt, some raisins, caramel, light yeasty but lacks true yeasty Quad complexity. Medium sweet, light bitter. Body is medium. Decent.

330ml bottle [gusher!]. Slightly cloudy, orange golden colour with huge, frothy to macropore, further osteoporosing and collapsing, minimally lacing, white head. Yeasty funky and sweet-ish, caramel malty as well as slightly biscuity pale and wheaty malty aroma, tart-ish, fruity interludes, a touch of ammonia, bretty, bubblegum overtones. Taste is sweet-ish and tart-ish, caramel malty, slightly yeasty fruity and mildly funky yeasty, unspecific fruitiness, some fruit acid, a touch of vinegar. Watery texture, minimally astringent palate, medium, prickly carbonation. A bit flawed, probably infected, fairly harmonious taste nevertheless - meh!
