Belgian beer

I'll admit that I bought this one simply because of the name. Turns out it has a story to it. "In the north of Belgium everyone knows what a Slurfke is: it is the beer that Eddy Van Noteghem, a main character in the wildly popular television series 'Thuis' ('Home'), is busy brewing with his friends. Now this fictitious beer has been created for and in the real world. The VRT television network asked Castle Brewery Van Honsebrouck to start developing and brewing the Slurfke based on the original recipe from the television series. The name Slurfke means ‘little trunk’." Slurfke is a robust, artisan, dark degustation beer of the dubbel type. "Roast malts account for its dark colour and contribute touches of caramel and coffee." I really liked it
