    Zes Zes ZesNow this is a saison! This refreshing Belgian-style ale is the combined effort of Three Floyds and De Molen’s fantastic brewer Menno (the real Dutch Hercules). This spicy and bracing ale was brewed in Munster, but look out for the one we brew in Holland at DeMolen. Cheers and drost! 8.5% ABV

    $10 for a 22oz Bomber bottle.

    Is this brewery only or will it hit distribution?

    Nice to see their latest special back to the normal bomber price point. Now if I lived anywhere close to have the option to actually buy it!

    I had a bottle last night and it was very good. It goes fantastically with a nice sharp cheddar. This is my favorite beer that De Molen has been involved with.

    Very good brew. Had it on draft and picked up a bottle. Loads better than Rabid Rabbit! Got some strong tropical fruit flavors. Thinking it was brewed with some sort of NZ hops.
    Name is 666 in Dutch.

    I thought it was still Zes Zes Zes just brewed at De Molen but I could be wrong

    Just opened a bottle. This stuff smells like straight pineapple juice (some amazing dry-hopping going on here). It's a bit too bitter in the taste though.
