Draft at Carnivale Brettanomyces. Didn't take many notes, just enjoyed good beers and good company. What I do remember: Mild, malty, mild Brett notes, some caramel malt.

Draft at Carnivale Brettanomyces. Didn't take many notes, just enjoyed good beers and good company. What I do remember: Hazy golden. Malty with green hop backbone. Over moderate sweet and bitter. Nice green hop. Herbal.

Schenkt pikzwart met een fijne bruine kraag waar echter weinig van overblijft. Geur van leer, turf, hout, tabak, gebrande mout, rood fruit, vineus, tikje funk. Retronasaal is het zoetig, chocola, oud hout (of het typische BT mossige, alhoewel maar lichtjes), tikje zurig. Smaak is zoetig, lichtjes zurig, gebrand. Alcohol is zeer warmend, het lijkt bijna wel of er peper in zit. Medium body. Lange afdronk. Erg complex, en hoewel ik de reguliere KS lekkerder vond is deze ook zeer de moeite waard. En de brett is gelukkig niet erg aanwezig.

BBE 07/2026. Murky dark orange colour, medium-sized white head. Sweetish fruity, caramalty, a bit bready nose. Medium-bodied. Quite mellow and easy flavour. Some caramalt and fruityness but much watered down. Some alcohol too. Not exiciting.

Can from De Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Stone fruits and malt, bit ripe fruit, apricot, soft pine, ripe orange. Medium bitter and light sweet. Bit of a throwback IPA, which I appreciate.

(Draft at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 1 March 2026) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, slightly bretty nose with funky yeast, vinegar, citrus, grapefruit, coffee and cacao. Malty, roasted, tart taste with notes of coffee, brett, vinegar, citrus, red berries and a tart and vinous finish with a fairly low roasty bitterness. Full body, with a touch of sweetness. Complex stuff, with coffee, chocolate, vinegar and brett. Not for the faint hearted, but quite interesting. Very nice.

Tap at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 14th January 2026. Entitled Monster Soup SSS Keeping Edition, think it’s the same. Tart and chocolatey, thinnish, interesting

Tap at at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 3rd December 2025. Funky, fresh and quirky - as normal Butchers Tears mix it up - good
