Description
In 2011 slaan biologische hopboer Joris Cambie en brouwer Kris Langouche de handen in elkaar. De familie Cambie teelt dan al generaties lang hop op de Poperingse velden en schakelt in 1997 al over op biologische teelt. Reden genoeg voor Joris en Kris om samen, op het hopbedrijf van Joris, een artisanale brouwerij te stichten. Het begin van De Plukker en zijn unieke verhaal! Dit is immers het enige hopbedrijf in België met een eigen brouwerij (brasserie à la ferme). Hier worden uitsluitend bieren gebrouwen met eigen hop. Alle bieren zijn dus ook bio-gecertificeerd.

Imported from my RateBeer account as De Plukker Tripel Plukker Zacht Blond (by De Plukker):
Aroma: 7/10, Appearance: 4/5, Taste: 6/10, Palate: 4/5, Overall: 12/20, MyTotalScore: 3.3/5
12/IX/15 - 33cl bottle @ Molenhof (Oostvleteren) - BB: II/2017 (2015-1180)
Clear deep blond to orange beer, big creamy off-white head, little stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: malty, pretty yeasty, sweet, some ripe banana, fruity. MF: ok carbon, full body. Taste: bitter, character, some banana, sweet malty, caramel. Aftertaste: yeasty, very fruity, banana, bit sweet, more banana. Distinct yeast profile, soft bitterness, was expecting more bitterness from this hop farmer, but then again, I also know the reason why they launched this beer, so...

Huge, towering light cream-coloured head, leaving lacerings over hazy copperish golden beer. Rather neutral nose, maybe hampered by the big head. Herbs, faintly sewer-ish, putteke. Toasted flavour, very strange, part malty, part... yeah, what? Rotting vegetable matter comes to mind, and a hint of dry chocolate. Finish gets sweeter, gradually. Medium bodied, very slick, (hop)oily feel. Well-carbonated. IPA, my *ss - not even a classical British one. Get Belgian ales correct first, then start experimenting.

Clear warm golden colour, slightest haze, white head. Malty, light hoppy aroma, apricot, caramel, light fruity, yeast, some straw. Sweet malty flavour, light bitter, caramel, dried apricot. Quite sweet finish, malts, caramel, sweetener, light fruity. Not exactly true to style, but still.. a bit sweet, rather enjoyable beer. (from 75cL bottle @ home. 2014 vintage)
