A new and stronger version of the older dikkenek. A clear amber beer with pale ale mout and added some "Jeneverbes" Also a taste of alcohol. A little sweer but defently a bitter touch. Also very spicy beer. Full bodied and even a little agressive. A very nice new bier

(Bottled, 0.75l) Hazy red-amber with a tanned, tight and fluffy, lasting head. Aroma of neutral, caramely malt and some earthy tartness. Neutral, caramely-malty flavor with dried fruit and quite strong, herby juniper notes. Medium, slicky body with foamy, but soft carbonation. A well-balanced, easily drinkable, clean and nicely juniper-herby brew.

Synthetic modern cork
