’t Hofbrouwerijke Bosprotter

Bottle from John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR. It was a super gusher. Hazy orange amber color with a super ferocious off-white head. Aromas of spicy fruit and soft funk. Medium body with smooth and creamy carbonation. Flavor is a touch of funk, with yeast, fruit and spice. Finish is very mild funk. It’s just incredibly drinkable.

33cl bottle: Thanks to Plovmand. Pours hazy muddy orange with a large creamy egg white head. Nose is yeasty & spicy. Good palate. Well balanced. Smooth. Long end!

750mL bottle, courtesy of argo0. Thanks, Aaron! Pours a murky, dull orange-amber color; textured off-white head with good retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Nice amounts of honey, lime and mineral hop bitterness, and a decently complex yeast character in the aroma; dry and toasty, with some honeyed sweetness. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: chewy honey, tea-like malts, and solid yeastiness upfront; a touch sweet, but generally well integrated and generous in its (albeit straightforward) flavor notes: honey, toasted malts, and crackers, with a touch of yellow fruits; reasonably drinkable and tasty tripel, but nothing exceptional here. Lengthy finish: sweet honeyed maltiness, toasty malts, crackers, and some tea-like malts.

(750ml bottle) Medium off-white head atop cloudy amber body with some yeast flecks. Aroma is medium sweet, yeast, light bubblegum, earthy. Taste is medium sweet, yeast, some fruit (orange/peach), spicy/earthy. Medium body, alcohol well hidden.

33cl, exclusive brewery, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex, balanced, cloudy, good head, good brew
