Mike Dolan, our NYC & NJ Division Manager, has another staff pick for us this week and he's keeping in line with our De Dolle theme! This time featuring his best buddy: Georgie!
De Dolle’s 40th Anniversary brew “XL” Pale Ale (6.5% abs) was brewed to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of De Dolle Brewers (Nov. 15, 1980 – Nov. 15, 2020) last fall.
From Mike about his recent tasting experience:
"I first tasted this beer in September 2020 during my first month of training at B. United International. I got word the Tank Container arrived from De Dolle with a few surprises inside. Kris Herteleer put an unmarked 750ml bottle of 40th anniversary “XL” {NOT refermented} into the tank container and a group of is tasted this sample. How excited was I to be doing R&D on a De Dolle product the world had never seen!
It was a “stunning experience” - completely different from the De Dolle standard portfolio. It was very approachable, very drinkable, with an extraordinary harmony of flavors and aromas. Fruity, dry, sweet – all perfectly balanced. I have been a fan of De Dolle since my first sip in 1990 – this was a “New De Dolle Experience.”
Kris was in communication with us the whole time. He explained why he dry hopped the beer, and how it improved the aroma and bitterness. The addition of dried bitter orange peels was a process to make it unlike any other beer on the market.
This beer will never be brewed again– and one year later it’s drinking better than ever!
The perfect beer for a walk in the park with my dog Georgie, a Brussels Griffon. "

Oerbier- the original beer.
De Dolle’s Oerbier was recently featured in Pellicle Magazine. Follow the link in our bio to read the thoughtful and well researched article by John Rega. This amazing art work was done by James Albon @jamesalbon.illustration
“A mahogany-tinged, toasty, and refreshingly tart ale, complex with cherry and woody esters, a cola-like herbal bitterness and a warm glow from its 9% ABV. It could be an aperitif, nightcap or pairing for any course in between. It could be the meal itself.” John Rega

Starting the week off with this staff pick from David, our Midwest division manager.
His pick- Quarta Runa from Birrificio Montegioco
“As summer fades, an ale brewed with peaches seems perfectly seasonal — rich, but not sweet, a depth of fruitiness delights the nose & tickles the palate. Italians know how to brew! Try serving it alongside chicken pinchos with a little guava barbecue sauce, and for dessert with a Belgian chocolate or three. Bonus: the artwork is very cool.”
Try it for yourself! Follow the link in our bio and click on this pic to bring Quarta Runa into your bar or order online to NY state.
