I was thinking about making this and was just wondering if any one has made it and how it turned out. Sounds like a good lawnmower beer with a Belgian twist.
Tafelbier, "table beer"...must be a variation on a theme for "table wine" aka Blue Nun, et. al.
Funny, I'll actually be making this recipe this weekend, but I'm going to do it with pilsner extract and wing it. It might turn out terrible, who knows.
I made this and put it on tap. I thought it was fantastic.

Well, I just sampled the tafel bier, 3 1/2 weeks in the bottle. It's much better than I anticipated. I made it with pilsner dry extract and wasn't expecting much. I was really worried about mouthfeel. I wanted to add 4 oz of maltodextrine, but didn't have any on hand at the time. However, it doesn't really seem thin. The beer started around a 1.026 and dropped to around a 1.006 in the end. It's a fairly carbonated bottle, but it's not too bad actually. The pepper flavor is mild, but the yeast did add a few interesting notes. Honestly, I think I'll brew this again. I may tweak it a little, but I think I've found a pretty decent, low ABV, summer beer.
mind sharing you recipe?
