, before a final 6-12 weeks in the castle's cellar. Hardly a rush-job.
But enough technical fluff, what does it taste like?
THEY SAY:
"Kasteelbier is a brown craft beer with a secondary fermentation, mild and tasty, full-bodied and creamy...it has a shelf life of several years*"
* Several years? Not in this house!
KASTEEL pours a deep dark brown with some reddish highlights when held up to the light. It's topped by a generous head of creamy, tan-coloured foam that shrinks a bit, but retains well enough to leave some nice lace patterns on the glass.
The aroma is fruity and sweet with lots of malty, bready notes. The fruit tones are dark and vinous, with plums and cherries muscling their way in there too. The yeast is quite noticeable on the nose, and there are all sorts of spices assaulting the olfactory senses ...

of Limburg restaurants, and many of them have gained stars. Yet none of them serve traditional Dutch food, because that is not regarded to be gourmet food.
Among these outstanding restaurants and château hotels are Château Neercanne, Winseler Hof, Kasteel Hoensbroek, Kasteel Wittem and Kasteel Elsloo. I have dined at the restaurant which is widely considered to be Holland's very best: KasteelErenstein, operated by the luxury group Camille Oostwegel Château Hotels & Restaurants, and indeed so good that it deserves a dedicated description.

Advantages: Inexpensive Disadvantages: Not very exciting
Hollandia is made by the Bavaria Brewery which, despite the name, isn't located high in the Alpine region of Germany, but much closer to sea-level in the North Brabant region of The Netherlands. It's been around since 1719 apparently, so the brewers should have perfected the product by now...donchathink?
Want to know more about the brewery? Check their website.
But all that matters not a jot when the mercury's rising and your hovering around with a crowd of people in a friend's garden, enjoying the witty repartee and doing your utmost to diminish the beer stock.
In situations like that you don't want to be indulging in the delights of a dark Trappist Ale or a 12% Kasteel...well, you might not, but I know I certainly would.
No. What's called for is cheap lager and lots of it. A beer that lubricates the vocal chords ...
