75 cl-flaska från Etre. Disig gyllengul vätska. Riktigt torr ,co hkrispig med rejäl bett i beskan. Som en xx bitter fast tysk weisse i grunden. Grundölet kanske hamnar lite i skymundan men jag tycker ändå att resultatet är riktigt lyckat.

Troubled water. Murky gold with white head. Banana and bitters esters. Sweet and bitters. Medium body and soft or even low carb.

Bottle shared. Hazy golden with white head. Soft caramel, doughy, soft pine, flowery, cloves. Medium sweet and quite bitter. Solid medium bodied. Not a classic hopfenweisse but quite OK.

Sampled @ Billie's Craft Beer Fest 2021. A slightly hazy orange golden beer with a white head. Aroma of clove, yeast, some banana,. Taste of banana, clove, yeast, caramelized malt.

Mule's interpretation of Schneider's old Hopfenweissbier concept, unsurprisingly perhaps as Mule - new kid on the block in Brussels - is possibly the first Belgian microbrewery to draw inspiration from the German beer culture; first released in 75 cl bottles for the BXL Beerfest (that did not take place for reasons all too well known) but apparently already part of their core range as well now. Thick and frothy, egg-white, opening but stable head on a misty orange blonde beer with amberish tinge, more cloudy with sediment. Aroma of white soap, chamomile, fresh mugwort leaf, bitter orange peel, thyme, unripe banana, unroasted peanuts, bergamot, dried ginger, camphor. Dryish-fruity onset, unripe banana and green pear, remaining dry and low in sweetness, medium carbonated; bread-crusty, peanutty maltiness, a tad toasty, developing a powerful, earthy and peppery hop bitterness in the end, with unexpected spicy aspects coming in as well (not just clove but bergamot, lemon thyme and cumin too), long and dry; citrus peel and soap impressions linger. Spicy, soapy, dry wheat beer, well-bittered so the "Hopfen" part is certainly well served - but I missed the Weizen part a bit, to be honest. Unusual, in any case, and enjoyable for what it is, but far removed from Schneider's perfect execution of a daring idea, with Weissbier in general being low in hoppiness traditionally speaking. Could have been much more.
