Benzai Profile - Brewver

Tap at Storm, Terschelling. Beer came out of retirement I guess, was on tap at the brewcafe so... Clear golden color. Hmm odd color for a witbier but okay. Aroma and flavor are wheat, yeasty, lightly floral and a bit sweet. A very distant note of citruspeel. Hmm drinkable but not a big fan.

6.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 5.5

Tap at Storm, Terschelling. Clear golden color, white head. Aroma is malty, grainy, dusty, iron. After a while though there some blossomy notes and light lemongrass. Flavor is fortunately less bland and dusty, there is indeed a moderate hoppiness in there. Other than that and a decent bitterness I don't get anything. Meh.

Quadrupel from Grutte Pier Brouwerij

11 months ago

8.1/10 — Appearance 9 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 9 Overall 7.5

Bottle shared with Laura at San Marino Restaurant, Harlingen. Very dark red-brown color with a dark red hue coming through when held into the light. Aroma is malts, a bit boozy, prunes. Flavor is malts, again lightly boozy but nothing disturbing, prunes, caramel, light chocolate, brown candy sugar, a distant hint of dades, herbs, spices, it reminds me of "bastogne koeken", so "speculaas". Quite well balanced. A tad on the spice / herbal side for me, but I'm quite pleasantly surprised tbh.
