Description
The entire idea of Oriel Beer went back in 2015 when we created the brand and started to make the building from scratch. Oriel Beer is a small family brewery, fully operated by ourselves, located in Bucharest, Romania. The name Oriel comes from the archangel of light, wisdom, illumination and sun. He is a patron of the arts and science for his ability to inspire and one of the seven archangels who preside over the world. He sparked our mind with ideas and we created this beautiful project. Since we are a very small brewery, our production capacity is very limited and we can produce around 200 hectoliters per year, but we aim to expand in short time.

Bottle 375ml @ home.

Bijna geen schuim. Oranjegeel, Bijna ontransparant.

Zuur (wat had je dan gedacht), stal, fruitig

Dunne CO2 fruitig, wrange nasmaak, mango, aardbei, blijft redelijk lang in de mond hangen. Is al wel wat over zijn max heen.

Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, slightly dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation.
Rather alcoholic, not overly complex - so-so.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks interesting. Beer in the glass cloudy amber. Small head. Alcoholic malty aroma. Starts intense spicy-malty, more and more alcoholic. Herbal hints, some spicy honey. Finish could be a bit more balanced. Not bad.

Bottle. Szaritott bor es nemi pinceszag, visszafogott gyumolcsosseg, kevesebb brett osszessegeben, mint amire szamitottam. Izben is laposka, ihato, nincs nagyobb hibaja, csak nem kifejezetten izgalmas.

Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Batch 11. Gusher alert. Aroma is yeasty and funky with fruity notes, brett funk, light pale malt, touch of apricot, light spicy/herbal. Flavour is lightly sweet and moderate bitter with a somewhat dry finish. Body is medium with lively carbonation. Nice one, bit Orval-ish.

Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is roasted malt with lots of chocolate, cocoa, touch of coffee, hint of dried fruit, caramel. I can definitely get behind the mention of pralines on the label. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a mild roasty bitterness and a little suggestion of yeastiness and tartness. Body is above medium, no sign of the 10%. Could be a bit more full, but... so nicely chocolate-y with a distinct 'Belgian twist'.
