Hoppenbier
The beer that opened Haarlem's 750th anniversary year on 11 November 1994, brewed to the city recipe of 1501. Soft fruit and herbal laurel on the nose, a fresh-bitter, soft palate with a light touch of clove and laurel, then a bitterness that lingers long. Dry-hopped with Hallertau Mittelfrüh, with barley, oats and wheat in the grist, 6.8% ABV.
