Diole Amber 7.5° - 1/3L is brewed at Brasserie des Carrières. Brewed without spices, combining 4 different hops, the Amber Diole is characterized by its hopy notes and its caramelized nose. The use of a caramelized malt and gas burners during boiling brings a roasted touch, which combines with the floral and fruity notes.
Bottled, unfiltered.
The creation of this beer at Brasserie des Carrières could be described as a happy accident. The gas flame used to fire up the mashing kettle was burning just a bit too long, or the settings were too high... whatever, the beer came out with a different colour and taste. The resulting brew went down very well and brewers Julien Slabbinck and François Amorison decided on the spot to market this beer, baptised Diôle Ambrée, alongside their Diôle Blonde. Diôle Brune was to join the family at a later stage. This beer is an excellent example of the expertise of the brewer-malter, someone who has the art of dosing down to a tee. Timing is important too: the mashing basin must be heated up to the point where the malt caramelises slightly.
