straffe hendrik

gotta love it when you have travelling beer geek friends
they bring back the beers for the rest of us to try without having to go further from our couches than cask night at ybc


rod brought us back this little gem from bruges
"Straffe Hendrik Quadrupel is a rich and intense dark beer of high fermentation. It is brewed using a subtle mixture of special malts, which give the beer an extremely dark colour and a complex full malt character. This Quadruple combines a pure dryness with a rich fullness, flavoured with just a hint of fruit. The continuing process of re-fermentation in the bottle creates a beer which can be stored over a number of years, with an ever-changing and ever-improving taste as a result."

i'm not much of a belgian fan, but this was a very drinkable beer
those in the know were getting fruit from the nose and banana on the tongue
and were nodding in approval
