De Koninck

Brewed by Brouwerij De Koninck (Duvel-Moortgat)
Style: Belgian Ale
Antwerpen, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip, Tumbler

330 ml bottle. Crystal clear reddish copper colour. Small fine-laced head. Woody and slightly grassy aroma. Northern Brewer hops maybe? High carbonation level leaves a prickly sensation. Slightly nutty flavours, but the lack of sweetness and a drying hop flavours makes the beer feel light. High clean hop bitterness. Refreshing, but with quite a bit of Belgian character. I believe I have tried this beer unfiltered before and remember it as having much more character and also a little cloudy. This version feels just too clean and very industrial.

very little head, amber in colour.fruit malts nose, caramel tart, fruit,somewhat grainy, lighter then expected but nice mild belgian

UPDATED: JAN 30, 2012 Bottle in Utrecht, Holland - Golden colour with a white head. Modest sweet aroma. Moderate sweet flavour with fruity notes. Light caramel

Looks good but tastes weak. On tap at everybody’s pizza. Slightly sweet aroma. Bitter taste predominates. Very thin with a quick finish.

(on tap @ toronado)light brown body with small lacing from the head.flavor and smell were bolth of sweet malts and belgian style yeast.pretty boring actually.

Alla spina al bar di fronte al Moulin de la Galette, in rue Lepic; non spiacevole birra di poche pretese, con un sentore alcolico spropositato per la sua gradazione ma tuttavia abbastanza beverina. Mielosa e caramellosa quanto le si addice ma con meno sentore cerealicolo che la Palm.

Pours out a clear light amber color with a small lacing head that quickly vanishes. Aroma of some sweet fruit, spice and slight yeast. Taste is refreshing, a bit watery. Notes of fruit, some yeast and spice, some dryness on the finish. Not a bad, good for a summer beer.

Pours a nearly opaque light chocolate brown with a thick, fine-bubbled ecru head. Aroma is malty, hoppy and subtly chocolaty. Mouth-filling malty flavor has hints of molasses, chocolate, nuts, hops and spice. Texture is smooth, fizzy, and quite pleasing.
