De Halve Maan Straffe Hendrik

What the brewers say

“Delicate dryness with hints of coriander, dark fruits, anise, and roasted chestnuts.”

What our panel thought

“Coconut-heavy nose with notes of dried apricot, cherry, clove, and pipe tobacco. Toasted coconut in the flavor with burnt-sugar malt sweetness, honey notes, and some raisin.”

What our editors thought

“Familiar caramel and toffee notes play off subtle Belgian esters, with a faint hint of PNW musty citrus and forest hops. The sip leans to the sweeter side—a proper indulgence. Esters fade into orange blossom and chocolate croissant before making a quick exit.”
