Rose petal perfumey taste and aroma, less herbal and citrus flavoured than some other wheat beers. Bottle conditioned.
Duvel (Strong Golden Ale, 33cl, 8.5% abv) Probably the worlds greatest beer. Complex brewing and blending processes produce this brilliant brew. Looks like a lager, very lively, but is a top fermented, malty hoppy beer ... nice and dry. Chill it!
Hommelbier (Belgian Ale, 33cl, 7.5%abv) Bursting with flavour.Strong on hops, like a top quality English ale.Bottle conditioned beer from the centre of the hop growing area of Belgium.

Light, soft, dry pilsener style beer with a flowery "Riesling" bouquet
Morte Subite Gueuze (Lambic, 25cl, 4.5% abv) Meaning "sudden death" but these lambics are far from strong. Rather they are sparkly refreshing aperitifs. No fruit is added to this so it is much drier in character. Some would say "sour"
Timmermans Kriek (Fruit Beer, 25cl, 4.5%abv)
Effervescent as champagne with a winey fruity nose. Delicious cherry, almond, and elderflower notes. Hints of tart citrus produce a lovely balanced dry drink. Cries out for a summer party.
