3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
7th February 2011
On Tap at the Bekeerde Suster, Amsterdam. This batch coming in at 9.0% abv. Clear amber beer with a good sized off white head. Palate is softish but also manages to have a carbonated bite. Creamy malt, rich but never getting heavy. Mellow cherry stars here. Really has a nice mouthfeel all round and it hides the 9.0% very very well. Hugely drinkable. One of my (normally lager swilling) work mates said he could drink ten pints of it!

On draught at 17th PINT winterbier festival, Gouda as De Bekeerde Suster Winterbier. Pours a hazy orange with a creamy white head. Aroma is malty, clove, spice, some sweetness and alcohol. Flavor is alcohol again, quite sharp, creamy, spices, clove, sweetness, and slightly bitter. Nice bittersweet finish. Nice beer.

Draught (Beiaard, Amsterdam)
Hazy orange-red, small tight head. Sweet strong beer aroma, a bit of spice too, and a touch of alcohol. Soft sweet sticky palate - danger! Huge full-bodied taste - different components in good balance: big malt, spicy, and decent hops. Alas a bit alcoholic, as the palate warned us.
