Texels Amber

Brewed by Texelse Bierbrouwerij
Style: Belgian Ale
Oudeschild, Netherlands

On tap at the brewry. Very herbal aroma. Light brown color, beige head, good lace. Very light sweet, malty, pretty bitter and herbal hops, hint of molasses, dry finish. Belgian Ale? More like a mix between a Alt and a Bitter Ale.

Always like these amber beers. It was sweetish the first sit, but had an interesting bitter evolution.

Hazy amber coloured. Malty aroma. Malty and sweet flavour with some yeast. Bit bitter palate. Easy to drink.

I shared this with Jacob Lövenlund - so my bottle also said Texels Fuurtoren Amber. It is a hazy amber beer with a white head. The aroma is of grass and hops. The flavor is malty with notes of gras and hops on a sweet background. The end is very dry hoppy with a light bitterness.

Bottled (CK). Hazy dark orange color, good creamy beige head. Fruity hoppy nose (caramel, mango) with notes of yeast and iron. Pale malty, caramelly background. Fruity hoppy bitterness, especially in the finish and aftertaste. Overall sweetish. Harmless, balanced , ok session beer.

Bottle 30 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Slightly hazy golden with a tall and firm off-white head. Fresh and fruity nose. Medium body, sweet malt and fruit. No or subdued bitterness. 130809

Cloudy light brown color, short head. Aroma of sweet amber malts, some hops, some fruits (prune). Taste is light sweet, malty, hint of chocolate, bit bitter. Slightly sticky palate.

Malty aroma with prune. Sweetish, yeasty taste with chocolate and prune. New label: maybe new recipe: Licorice and pepper aroma. Sweetish, malty flavor with hops, pepper and some licorice. Too sweet to be really good, but not bad at all.
