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.

0.3 l bottle from 'Slijterij Gérard', best before December 2020. Clear, dark ruby with a thin, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, minimally fruity aroma of lots of caramel, burnt sugar and hints of raisins. Quite sweet, malty, minimally bitter and a little fruity taste of caramel, burnt sugar, some bread crust and hints of raisins, followed by a short, minimally bitter, a little bready finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Quite decent for what it is. And... another Dutch Oud Bruin ticked off!
