Hop Harvest. The fresh, undried hop flowers are picked in the morning, and on the same day they are used in the Hop Harvest-brew, straight from the field. Because we use 'wet hops', the beer has a fresh, floral, and pleasantly bitter taste. By changing the recipe every year, the outcome is always a surprise. Drink this beer young if you can, that's when the wet hop shows of their floral character the most.

(Draft at Nüetnigenough, Brussels, 19 Sep 2025) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy white head. Hoppy nose with notes of citrus, herbs, bread and grass. Hoppy, malty taste with bread, citrus, herbs, grain and a fresh, balanced herbal/grassy bitterness. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Hoppy, well balanced and harmonious, with a really fresh herbal hop character. Very nice.

Flaska från Etre Gourmete drucken med ölföreningen. Doft av belgisk jäst, örter, blommor och gräs. Fin kropp, krisp och ändå smoth. Perfekt balanserad smak mellan beska örter och blommigt gräsig humle och den fruktiga och brödiga malten och jästen. Mycket gott
