About this release

All editions of 'n Toeback are single hop specials, a tribute to one specific hop variety. For this edition, Ariana hops are centre stage and added at four moments: during the boil for bitterness and aroma, a touch in the whirlpool and finally as dry hop during the resting phase. This 9% strong beer is a fine example of the brewing craft of Scheldebrouwerij, a Belgian brewery with Dutch roots from Hoogstraten in the province of Antwerp. The brewery has a long history of making traditional Belgian ales with character and balance, as evidenced by their renowned blonde, double and triple. With 'n Toeback 9 Ariana they demonstrate how refined they are in handling hop additions in various brewing stages. The fourfold hop addition creates a complex interplay of bitterness, aroma and hop character that fully unfolds when you serve this beer at 8 degrees Celsius. Each phase of the hop addition contributes to a layered beer experience that hop enthusiasts will appreciate. With an Untappd rating of 3.58 out of 5 stars based on over 779 reviews, this beer proves its worth among beer lovers. A fine addition for those who enjoy experimenting with single hop specials and want to discover the finer points of hop additions.
