Voor Collab #7 gaan we niet alleen voor grondstoffen uit de streek maar ook voor een samenwerking met van de streek. De klassieke ondergistende pilsgist van gulpener is hier undercover gegaan. Als een bovengistend bier op een stomige temperatuur van 18 graden. Een echt California Steam Beer. Op Stoom is een ode aan de zon met frisse tonen van limoen en citrusvruchten. Uitgesproken vanwege het grassige en volmoutige karakter.

Already the seventh one in this series of Gulpener collabs, this time with renowned Vandestreek, a Californian 'steam beer' in style, the starting point of this whole American craft beer movement. Thanks to Craftmember for sharing. Egg-white, mousy, membrane-lacing, stable head on a hazy warm orange-hued 'old gold' beer. Aroma of dried grapefruit peel, old biscuit, orange zest, dried wormwood, bread crumbs, white pepper. Fruity, crisp onset, clean, mild apricot and orange peel aspects, fizzy carbonation, smooth mouthfeel; biscuity and supple cereally maltiness, sweetish and even very subtly honeyish, but dried by a quite long, leafy, spicy hop bitter finish drying the finish. Hop-forward American style ale indeed, quite to the point for the intended style, though arguably less complexely hoppy than the famous archetype in this style (Anchor Steam).

Fris & fruitig, droge gist, licht bitter. Uitstekend. Dit moet vers van de tap nog beter zijn

0.3 l bottle from 'Speciaalbierpakket.nl', best before March 2020. Hazy, golden amber with a medium large, frothy, stable, white head. Sweetish, gently fruity-floral and moderately grassy aroma of lemon peel, quince and a bit of pineapple. Moderately sweet, minimally bitter, rather fruity, floral and a bit grassy taste of lemon peel, quince and some pineapple with a touch of grains, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately grassy finish. Medium body, smooth, slightly creamy and a bit effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very refreshing beer, highly quaffable, good!
