Gulpener Chateau Neubourg

Brewed by Gulpener Bierbrouwerij
Style: Classic German Pilsener
Gulpen, Netherlands

No fizz, no fuss. As if you poured whisky and not beer. A very relaxing attitude. Almost no head. You get pure beer. It has a very refined, round taste. Fits into one’s throat very smoothly. You get a slight bitter taste afterwards, a rather plesant one, like that of Efes Pilsener. This is a beer you would drink and enjoy like whisky and not beer. Not something you would drink more than 2 a day. Something to drink as novelty, or with its stylish blue bottle, to impress one’s girlfriend. Otherwise, it may not justify itsef at three times the price of Heineken.

Dark colden color, thin head, spicy aroma with some bitter and sweed, nice one fore one ore two, not more.

(bottle, traded with bierkoning) Deep golden colour with a short foamy white head. Moderately sweet grainy, slightly buttery aroma with honey. Light bitter flavour, light to medium body, medium carbonation. Medium dry malty and slightly hoppy initial taste; dry and bitter hoppy, slightly sticky finish.

This beer has a gold yellow body - hue apperance and a fine white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a lot of carbonic acid. The initial flavor taste is moutig with a moutig afther tast.

Clear pale golden body with an average white head. Poor aroma. Some hops in the taste but they don’t taste all that fresh. Another Gulpener Pilsener, and both are pretty ordinary, hopefully their other beers are better, at least the bottle looked pretty cool. This one rated only slightly higher than the previous one because the hops make more of an appearance.

Honey gold, clear. Leafy hop aroma with a hint of malt. Good hop presence on the palate with a nice bitter finish. Flavourful and well balanced.

From the cool blue bottle a mid-gold crystal clear brew with a midsized fluff snow white head that diminshes quickly. Aroma is a dusty straw with mild herbal hops and a bit of butterscotch. Medium soft smooth relatively low carb palate. Flavour is a lightly candy sweet, stale to medium acrid bitter hops becoming even more bitter at the finish. Apart from the bottle I woudl say it lacks inspiration although I probably didn’t have it cold enough.

Bottled - Peterborough BF. A straw yellow coloured beer with a white head. The aroma is grassy and lagerish and a bit watery. The taste is creamyish with reasonable hops. Quite tasty.
