In de nazomer en vroege herfst kleurt het eiland oranje. Niet de blaadjes van de bomen, maar de duindoornbessen geven het eiland kleur. De bessen zijn mega zuur, maar erg gezond en ze worden verwerkt in vele producten. Daar is sinds juni 2018 een biertje aan toegevoegd. En laat dit nou toevallig een Schiermonnikoogs-Belgisch recept zijn.

Want bier en Belgen gaan prima samen, zij zijn meester in het brouwen van speciaal biertjes. Maar België is niet Schiermonnikoog, verre van dat, dus hoe wordt een Belg een halfbloed eilander? Moeder Gientje Drent is geboren en getogen op het eiland. Zoon Harm woont al 43 jaar op het eiland en zoon Tony is in Vlaanderen gebleven, maar is met grote regelmaat te vinden op Schiermonnikoog. Bij elk bezoek aan het hoge Noorden, neemt Tony speciaal biertjes mee voor zijn broer. Tijdens de lange wandelingen die Harm samen met zijn vrouw Agnes over het eiland maakt, is het idee ontstaan voor een nieuw te brouwen biertje. In Eke-Nazareth, het naburige dorp van Tony, staat microbrouwerij De Sater, dus het contact werd gelegd met Dieter.

330ml bottle. Hazy, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, snow white head. Biscuity, pale malty and fruity hoppy aroma, rather unspecific, cautious fruitiness. Taste is biscuity pale malty and mildly bitter, citrusy fruity hoppy, a touch of honey, lemon, seabuckthorn, some fruit acidic tartness.
Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, dense, prickly carbonation.
Homogeneous and balanced - OK.

2 February 2019. At Brugs Bierfestival. Cheers to tderoeck, 77ships, Jerre, Kevin & Anke! Clear pale golden with a lasting, thin, foamy, white head; lots of lacing. Aroma of old jenever, mouldy lime, lemon peel, old bread, soap, grain, straw, iron. Taste is light fruity sweet, notes of apircot & yellow apple, a bit estery, backed by a medium grainy bitterness, on top of a white bready malty base, a bit yeasty, stale & old though. Dryish, grainy ifnish, lingering fruitiness & yeast. Medium body, slick texture, soft to flat carbonation. Refreshing but weird beer.

@ Brugs Bierfestival, BB: n/a - (2019-195) Thanks to the Belgian ratebeer crew for sharing todays' beers!
Clear pale blond beer, small creamy white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: wow, very bad, malts up front, but then pretty sourish impression, reminding of puke, metallic impression, unpleasant, don't like this at all! MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet and malty start, dirty, lots of sweet malts, grains, highly unpleasant. Aftertaste: sugary, sweet, soft bitterness, pretty bad, don't like it!

Bottle at Familierestaurant het Wantij, Schiermonnikoog. Clear pale golden with massive pristine white head. Very heavily carbonated with massive lacing. Sweet malts, dry malts, a lot of lemon, some coriander, fruity, light tart and bitter notes apparently from seabuckthorn. Otherwise pretty dry grassy. Moderate sweet and bitter. Medium body and a lot of carbonation. --- Beer merged from original tick of Schierse Hippo on 14 Jul 2018 at 16:08 - Score: 7

Bottle from LDW, Eke. Light hazy yellow colour, white foam. Fruity nose of lemon, seabuckthorn, wheat. Taste is light tart, fruity. Maybe a bit too much carbonation but a nice refreshing summer beer.
