“Miss Pinky Elephant” is brewed ONLY ONCE A YEAR and BY WOMEN ONLY!!! A rare beer of special technology, served in generous bottles of 0.75 L capacity. From the women of beer – to all of the beer world.

The Aroma is modestly blossoming and a touch fruity with the intriguing hint of Chardonnay grapes. A gentle whiff of hops rewards the most patient of palates.

The Taste is formed by tiny, light “champagne fizz” bubbles, which tingle the mouth and burst with fruity undertones of green apples and Chardonnay grapes. The aftertaste of this calm yet luxurious beer is delicately bitter (-ish), with a wonderfully “cozy” crispiness, which makes one want to smack the lips.

THE LEGEND: DEUS is permanently amusing the beer connoisseurs the world over! Crafted and double-fermented in Belgium, it travels to France to be patiently fermented for the third time. Over a period of several months, using the same ancient method as for champagne, the DEUS bottles are patiently rotated and gradually tilted downwards for the yeast to gather in the neck of the bottle. Then the neck is quick-frozen and the yeast “cork” is forced out. After this, the bottles travel back to Belgium, where their worldwide journey starts… This outstanding beer is crafted in very small quantities and it would be unreasonable to expect to find it in just any shop.

THE POETRY OF AROMA: the color of hand-made linen and white gold, the extremely tiny bubbles bring forward the touchingly dramatic aroma: can it really be fresh apples, mint, thyme, citrus fruits, ginger, malt, pears, hops, cloves?..

THE SECRETS OF TASTE: DEUS slides down elegantly and smoothly like silk. After coquettishly tingling the mouth, it leaves a light, surprising reminiscence of roasted apples and sweet grapes. The refreshingly dry finish has a tiny hint of tannins. The popular view holds that it is quite impossible to understand DEUS the first time around… Truly, a divine drink!

STRAFFE HENDRIK TRIPEL:

“The Mighty Hendrik” is justifiably well known for its… tenderness. A huge achievement by the DE HALVE MAAN family beer brewery, arriving straight from the legendary and fairy-tale (even sugar-sweet) beautiful, yet authentic little town of Bruges, in tasty Belgium.

The Looks: due to its second fermentation in the bottle (“bottle conditioning”), this Belgian “tripel” fashionista is brewer-like cloudy-golden, with an impressively sturgy head.

The Character: has a fruity-spicy aroma and a manifold, very peculiar sweet & bitter aftertaste. At the beginning of the acquaintance one feels the nuances of ginger, roasted black pepper, coriander, even orange. Afterwards: a sincere hug of six different malts, with Saaz and Styrian hops to boot. Then: a gentle bitterness, a pleasant “dryness”, a freshness of citrus and a sweetness of nano-banana. As per beer of this strength, the tenderness is simply outstanding.

A complex character, yet a sincere friendship.

STRAFFE HENDRIK WILD is the unique take on the famous STRAFFE HENDRIK TRIPEL: the refermentation takes place in the bottle using Brettanomyces – THE WILD YEAST.

Combining it with the aromatic hops empowers this beer with the unusual flavours and fragrances of fruits. The wild yeast also adds to the longevity of this beer’s “life” remarkably – up to 5 years! And all this time the yeast’s “work” in the bottle will enhance the aromas of fruits, flowers and even wine, while the pleasant bitterness of hops will gradually “move to the background”.

Refermentation with wild yeast is a rare tradition amongst the brewers. STRAFFE HENDRIK WILD is brewed only once a year, and only in spring. Then its finite quantity starts its journey through the hearts (and mouths!) of beer admirerers all over the world...

STRAFFE HENDRIK QUADRUPEL:

Many stories start with this here protagonist… After all, it is with this specimen that the famous dark & rare STRAFFE HENDRIK HERITAGE is made (you will find it in our “COLECTIONER’S BEER” section).

The Looks: this “quadruple” gentleman has the vampire (-ish) style all of its own. Projecting the scents of exotic spices, it is befittingly non-transparent.

The Character: deceivingly sweetish, it becomes a sophisticated manipulator during the get-together. Has a deep knowledge of dried prunes and roasted chestnuts. Cold-blooded and dry, with a hint of nano-anise. And yet – with its viscosity and elegant strength - it warms you up from within on those overcast, dreary days. Just like dark chocolate…

Cuddly, generous, passionate. But not for every day.
