Beer #165 - Pauwel Kwak
Pauwel Kwak was one of the beers I hauled back from my recent
Belgium trip. Widely available in supermarkets and stuff I think this bottle
cost me about 1 Euro 60, which for a bottle of quality 8% beer is absolutely
insanely cheap, especially when you consider the prices of certain beers in
London bottle shops. Unfortunately I didn’t have time to write a lot about my
Belgian beer adventures and I ended posting a load of photo-only posts, but I
aim to fill in the blanks one day! Anyway I cracked this one open last Sunday. This
is a full-bodied, fruity beer, with some nice caramel malt that gives it quite
a sweet flavour. Having said that, there is something in here that I don’t
really get on with, that gives the beer quite an odd flavour. I can’t quite put
my finger on it but unfortunately it doesn’t compare favourably to the Orval, Rochefort
and other beers I had.
