In 2004, the city of Ostend commemorated the 400th anniversary of the 'Siege of Ostend' that took place from 1601 to 1604. At the request of the 'Oostendse Bierjutters', a group of enthusiastic beer geeks, this unique beer was created. What was intended to be a one-off brew for the festivities, has become an indispensable icon for Ostend.
The malt of this characteristic, golden blonde triple comes from the French region of Beauce-Gatinais. Together with the added German Munich malt both provide a full-bodied finish. A selection of 4 fine hop varieties from Germany, the Czech Republic, Great Britain and Belgium ensures a subtly balanced nose. The careful re-fermentation in the bottle ensures a firm, creamy head.

Golden court clear big white head. Aroma is citrus, orange, grapefruit with a beefy malts bashing that comes up after a while, together with some plum. A bit hard to chug down honestly, had much better triples. It ain’t bsd, just outclassed by others in the category.
