For the work of 200 weeks of #BeerSaturday
This week I found a beer and a very special glass together in such a nice box. So, I decided that this is a present for myself for all the work and time I spend since 200 weeks with the #BeerSaturday challenge.
Kwak box with glass for 
This nice beer comes from Buggenhout, East Flanders, Belgium and I got this box at my local beer dealer.
Ingredients: Barley malts, mineral water, wheat, hops and white candy sugar.
Created in the 1980s, and named after an 18th century brewer and innkeeper, Pauwel Kwak, who apparantly developed a shorter version of the traditional English long stirrup glass (which developed into the yard of ale), for coachmen to use.
Kwak is served with respect for tradition in its own Kwak glass. Recognisable, special and just as idiosyncratic as the taste of the beer itself.

About Kwak
Kwak pours into my glass slightly hazy and the color of polished gold. The head is dense, off white, and lasting.
Very rich set of aromas on this beer. Hints of candi sugar and spice up front, moving very quickly into caramel candies. Caramel is supported by hints of leather and tobacco, reinforcing the aroma's overall spiciness. Then I get what smells like ripe summer berries, especially strawberry. All these elements combine to give an aroma that is at once both vinous and gently barnyard in character.
Kwak is smooth bodied, nicely rounded in the middle, and very full flavored. Flavors of caramel and spiciness lead the charge before moving into barnyardy flavors of leather, horse blanket, and tobacco. The center is vinous in nature, giving flavors of ripe grape rather than the berries I noted in the nose. Slight alcoholic spiciness somehow feels appropriate here.
It's pleasantly complex boasting the spiciness you might expect from a Belgian beer and coupling that with a vinous, barnyard profile. And yet the flavors and aromas are restrained enough to prevent them from becoming off putting. This is a very enjoyable beer to sip on during a cool, autumn evening.
I can't describe it better as this text from BPVandenbroek from Canada (AB) at beeradvocate.com

The story of this day
For so many weeks I organize the #BeerSaturday again and again. So, I decided to have a special present for myself.
Since several years, this funny looking glass was calling me in all that bars and pubs. Today it was may day and I bought this box for me
Notice to myself
You really need to read the pouring instructions to prevent a big mess.
Finally
Kwak is a different beer. It comes with all this different and complex taste. Warm and and strong and coffee or nuts and this wonderful little different taste.
Beer taste to good
There are actually not so many pics from me and or the beer as I was way to delicious. This wonderful taste took all my time...
Have a great day everybody
enjoy #BeerSaturday
and show us your beers
