Supplier: Beer52
So another offer on the Beer52 box, so I got another 8 from them. This is from a well established Dutch brewery, renamed in 2004 when they acquired a windmill. This is one of their core range, made with a variety of malt, including oats, and uses saaz and chinook for bittering hops. I served this at room temperature.

Appearance: Dark with hints of brown around the edges. The head is tan, but is pretty much non-existent.
Aroma: Smells like a mixture of roasted malt, yeast, and cinnamon.
Flavour: Sweet bread and roasted malts, a nice smooth malt flavour.
Body: Loads of mouth feel, nice and smooth, if not a little flat.
Aftertaste: The flavour continues in the aftertaste with a little more roasted malt and a little green hops.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 7, really smooth and really drinkable, a little low in flavour though.
Price Range: The box had 8 beers for £14 - so £1.75 for a 330ml bottle; a great price for a nice beer.
Food Pairings: This is quite a sweet beer, but would go well with a sweet pastry, something like a Danish.
