Luvanium Hopschieter has its origins in the time-honored herb beer that was prepared with a lot of hops in the Leuven herb kettles in the 18th century. This dry hopped, golden blond beer of 8% Alc. is brewed with 100% Belgian hops, barley, wheat and oats. The name Hopschieter refers to the old nickname of the Leuvenaars: the cow shooters.

Donkergeel bier met mooie stevige schuimkraag. Smaak is licht bitter en licht zoet en kruidig met iets van appel, mandarijn en een vleugje ananas. Goed bier.

33cl bottle from Carrefour market @ in Tervuren near Brussels. F: big, egg-white, long lasting. C: pale gold, clear. A: malty, orange, bit herbal, tangerine, bit spicy. T: malty, orange, bit herbal, mellow fruity, decent bitterness, ok bit more hoppy than usual BSA but nothing really special, medium body, medium carbonation, not bad all together, enjoyed.

Good, fine & dense yellowish head over clear orangey golden beer. Initially more malts than hops in the nose, slightly toasted, leafy. Then (green) leafy, herbal hops, herbs arrive. Bitterish to bitter, again quite spicy & herbal, hints at other grains (though I miss both the creamy feel from the oats as the sourish touch from the wheat). Old cookies. Some wheatslickness, stable head is creamy. Good carbonation, medium bodied. Certainly not an IPA. But for a kruidbier... I don't know. It's drinkable, but I'm not over the moon with the choice of hops - a common mistake when Belgians go hoppy.
