Commercial Description:
Piraat is a wickedly rich and rounded brew that packs a mighty punch. The powerful glow builds up from inside. Deep golden with a subtle haze. Lots of hops and malt. Mild sweetness. Reminiscent of bread dough, spices and tropical fruits.

One of the best Belgian Ales. Thick lasting white head floats on clead golden brew. Sweet, fruity and a bit fizzy. Hides the alcohol well.

Beautiful deep gold color. Huge aroma of sweet spice and bubblegum. Yeasty and Bready with a candy sweetness (think pixi stix) and a nice warmth from the alchohol. A big beer! I love it!

0,33 bottle. Aroma is alcoholic, malty and sweet. It’s clear dark amber in colour. Low head. Fizzy in mouth, bready and dry, with some sweetness.

Bottle Light golden/amber pour with very small head. Bready malty aroma. Flavor follows with more of a spice to it. Dry bready mouthfeel. Good, but not too complex flavor. Well hidden alcohol.

Hazy orange body, small white head. Alcoholic, malty, bready aroma. Alcohol really comes through in the flavor, somewhat dominating it. Dry, sweet finish.

Nice golden colored bear with a rich white head and a mild fruity aroma... tastes spicy with a sweet finish and the alcohol is hardly noticeable

Lightly carbonated and very sweet, almost a bubble gum flavor. Quite a unique taste. Alcohol is barely noticable. Would try again.
