Description
Vaak word er al snel naar een Angelsaksische tongval gegrepen om het voor de hand liggende cider en ale uit de naam te halen. Lang niet slecht bekeken, het maken van bier en cider zijn mijn ding. De diepere betekenis achter de naam van de brouwerij is echter persoonlijker gevonden.
De naam is net als de brouwerij een deel van mezelf. Astrologie gaf me de inspiratie. 1 augustus, mijn geboortedag
CYpres - de Keltische horoscoop gebruikt bomen voor bepaalde periodes in het jaar.
DRAak - Chinese astrologie koppelt dieren aan het geboortejaar.
LEeuw - Westerse sterrengroepen symboliseren de periodes in het jaar.

Black and oily with no head. Aroma and flavour have lots of woody notes from the chips. Sweet and earthy notes too. Alcohol is well hidden.

Golden colour with light haze and fluffy head. Aroma has quite a lot of floral hops. Flavour has different degrees of sweetness. There is a rounded cereal malt note and also some slightly syrupy sweet candied strawberries. Finish is slightly earthy and quite bitter.

Golden colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have malt sweetness and lots of herbs and spices. Nettles come through and there's a general woody earthiness too. Too sweet and and spicy for me but is definitely interesting and unique. If I had a creamy but sharp goat cheese I would try pairing it with this beer.

Bottle shared a couple of days ago. Opaque black color, virtually no head. Aroma and flavor are malts, alcohol, liquor, sweetness. Boozy and heavy.

Head gone in seconds; black, still beer. Bourbon, vanilla, fusels & alcohol, boozy, wood, sweet nose. Vanilla & Bourbon dominating the taste, further incense, sweet, but not cloying, and drier than the nose had me thinking. Booze seriously intensifies the sweetness. Very serious alcoholthinning and furious alcoholheat. Chewy, full bodied, and burning MF. Beyond intense, complex as few. But I still find it too sweet. Thanks to Stef!
