COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Deep to orange blond abbey triple winterbeer which has been lagered for 8 months on different stonefruits. Tsjeeses was born out of a 5 year brew experience regarding x-mas beer without being capable of finding a suitable name up to now. With the name came a face, a caricature actually, that was drawn on the day Urbain, our brew master and master brewer, drank too many Tsjeeses's. Every time he drinks one, he says "Tsjeeses, what a beer". Therefore the name is more an expression of stupefaction than a curse. We have had already many discussions around the pronounciation of "Tsjeeses". Very close would be that you say "cheeses" or cheese in plural.

Bottle, from a trade with fata2683, thanks Keith! Pours hazy rust-amber, medium off-white head, spotty lacing. Immediately fruity nose, with a nice toasted malt note as well, candy, banana, berries, cider, mildly sour note as well. In the mouth it has a pronounced tart stonefruit character; underripe peaches and tangerines, mild spice, lovely malt character, nice balance between sweet and tart, thoroughly enjoyable.
