22 November 2025. GBV Tasting: Struise en kaas feat. Tim DR (Jan Yoens). Cheers to the whole crew!
Clear golden, small, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of green apple, gooseberry, sourdough, hay, straw, vanilla. Taste has sour green apple, plum & grape; some funky hay & straw before finishing with grassy hops, vanilla, yellow fruits and wood, fairly oxidised too. Medium body, moussy texture, average carbonation. Pretty decent bit didn't hold up as well as the non-BA base beer.

Bottle thanks to Will. Pours a cloudy orange with medium frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is strong funk, cheese, brett, stone fruit. Thin mouth, nice funk, tart fruit, brett, oak, very nice.

Bottle from De Molen, shared with Hans. Blond colour, white foam. Medium carbonation. Aroma of citrus with hints of vanilla and spices. Little bit sweet, bit sour. Ok beer but not the best from De Struise. Bit thin body.

Bottled 750ml (PBF IX)
Slightly hazy yellow color, small white head. Slightly tart, citrusy aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Very fruity but same time dry flavor. Citrus, light barnyard, some sweetish notes. Slick palate. I can’t trace much of bourbon here but interesting it is.
