Ut 1e Kieft-ai
A malty, round spring bock with biscuit and caramel, a light spiciness and soft hop bitterness, ending in a long, pleasantly malty finish despite 7% ABV. The name nods to the first lapwing egg of the year, a traditional sign of approaching spring that was once presented to the queen; today the egg may still be found but no longer taken, so the brewery brews this beer every spring instead. Copper-coloured, with Saaz and Brewers Gold, released from 1 March.
