Description
Since 1870 our family, the Meens family, has been brewing its Alfa beers in the traditional way. Alfa Bier's brewing process is still the traditional brewing process. The recipe, the method of brewing and the raw materials have consciously never changed, because we do not compromise on the quality of our beer. Alfa is the only brewery in the Netherlands to have 100% pure spring water from an officially recognized source. That water from our own source determines the special, pure and full taste of our Alfa Beers.

Yellow colour with a white head. Moderate sweet aroma and flavour. Not bad, not anything to write home about either. But on rb we write :-)

Taste is medium bitter with hints of sweetness. Body is light oily with good carbonation. Finish is short and light bitter with notes of citrus, cookies and hints of licorice.

Draft at Bier Fabriek. Hazy golden pour with a small white head. Couldn’t get anything from the aroma but light citrus, really not much going on there.. Flavour has a little more with sweet malt, light fruit and not much more actually. Easily drinkable but unexciting.
