About this release

All editions of 'n Toeback are single hop specials, a tribute to one specific hop variety. For this edition, the Ariana hop takes center stage and is added at four moments: during the boil for bitterness and aroma, a touch in the whirlpool, and finally as a dry hop during the resting phase. This 9% strong beer is a fine example of the brewing craftsmanship 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. With 'n Toeback 9 Ariana, they demonstrate how refined their approach is to hop additions at different brewing stages. The threefold hop addition creates a complex interplay of bitterness, aroma, and hop character. This is a beer that develops nicely at a serving temperature of 8 degrees Celsius. With an Untappd rating of 3.59 out of 5 stars based on over 779 reviews, this beer proves its worth among beer enthusiasts. A great addition for those who enjoy experimenting with single hop specials and want to discover the finer points of hop additions.
