Emmanuel is drinking a Noblesse V.S.O.P. (2022) by Brouwerij De Dochter van de Korenaar
6%?! Boozy a.f., must be the jenever barrels. And what is the style anyway? Old Pale🤔? Mysterious. Barley and wheat, 'wild' like, heavy yet only 6% ABV, malty but dry and nutty... Like a low hopped IPA. Somewhat similar to Orval. Nutty, champagne-like➡️
Emmanuel is drinking a Tropical Hazy IPA by Anchor Brewing Company
Gonna miss those cute bottles. Good one, but not that spectacular. Very fruity indeed, bitter, thickish and not hazy at all. The anchor has been pulled up, farewell Frisco.

Emmanuel is drinking a Poperings Hommelbier by Leroy Breweries
Ah, nice one. A Strong Golden with four hop varieties, name it a Session Piraat. Malty Blonde-style, green, some citrus, pomelo bitterness, slightly herbal or spiced (hops only though) and mayyybe a wee bit on the malty-sweet side. Let's call it honey.

Emmanuel: ... Funny how the timeless (shout out to Goldie) label matches the hop profile- greenish spingy yellowy🤓. A West Flanders gem if I may.😘🍺

Emmanuel is drinking a Guur & Kou by Brouwerij de Molen
Mmm. Yes. Super chewy for starters. Savory. Just a smidge of Juniper bitterness and a hint of licorice, both of which I wouldn't have guessed. Subtle, sweet, bitter and rock steady firm. Yeah, great one. Goes fine with ... hold on - ➡️

Emmanuel: ... Besides Orval it reminds me of that IPA Estonian banger I had a few years ago, which was quite spectacular. This is something else alright. Original and feisty. Keep em coming, Cerealear!👌👌👌

Emmanuel: Matt K. Well I guess the correct English spelling is Genever. As in Gin, but different. It surely worked on this one!🍻
