Brouwerij Eanske Kopje Koffie Glazenwasser?
This unique Blonde Ale presents an approachable profile elevated by the infusion of locally roasted coffee. The base beer offers a clean, soft malt backbone with notes of freshly baked bread and light honey. The addition of local coffee beans introduces an aromatic complexity of toasted hazelnuts and cold-brew smoothness without the harsh acidity or dark color of roasted malts. Despite its higher-than-average strength for the style, the finish remains crisp and balanced, bridging the gap between a refreshing golden ale and a sophisticated coffee-forward beverage. It is a harmonious marriage of light, grainy sweetness and delicate roasted accents, providing deceptive depth.
Appearance. Deep gold in color with a slight haze from the coffee oils. Topped with a medium, creamy white head that shows fair retention and leaves light lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity dominated by freshly ground coffee, offering notes of cocoa and light roast. Beneath the coffee is a moderate grainy-sweet malt character with hints of cracker. Hop aroma is low and earthy, with a very clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial impression is soft and malty, featuring bready and toasted grain flavors. This is quickly layered with the clean taste of roasted coffee, contributing nutty and chocolatey nuances. Hop bitterness is medium-low, providing enough structure to balance the malt. The finish is medium-dry and crisp with a lingering hint of roasted beans.
Mouthfeel. Medium body, feeling slightly fuller than a traditional example due to the 6.5% ABV. Carbonation is moderate to high, lending a lively sparkle. A subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present with a smooth, slightly creamy texture.
