Description
Founded in 1784 by Jean Baptiste De Bruin and still a family brewery to this day; known as Brouwerij Schelfaut until 1919, when the name was changed to Brouwerij Bios by Paul Van Steenberge, who became the head of the operation in 1922. Currently operated by his great-grandson Jef Versele (since 1998). Underwent many technical upgrades and expansions since then, most notably in 2017 when new buildings were installed and production capacity was significantly increased.

750 ml bottle. Pours a dull amber with moderate fizzy but retentive head. Aromas of fruity esters, candied citrus, coriander and toasted malts. Flavors follow same with additional fruity rum, though I may be imagining this… Definitely more tasty the base beer. Very nice.

Bottle. Nice beer. one of the better non-trappist abbeys. Nice spicy, fruity flavor. Smells great. If it were a little less expensive wouldn’t mind having all the time. Highly recommended.

0.33 l bottle from 'Mr. Hop', best before November 2027. Almost clear, very dark ruby with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently yeasty-spicy and moderately fruity aroma of molasses, raisins, prunes, marzipan, some banana and a touch of vanilla. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity taste of molasses, banana, raisins, prunes, marzipan, some chocolate and hints of vanilla, followed by a long, moderately bitter, fairly peppery finish. Medium body, rather effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Unnecessary variant, just give me that classic one ffs.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours an almost clear, deep golden with a lacing, off-white head. Aroma of overripe fruit. Medium body, sweet maltiness and overripe fruit with a moldy note. Some finishing bittering hops. Poorly and sloppy crafted - whatever it is. 190325
