Description
Brouwerij Leeghwater is een craftbeer brouwerij uit het Noord Hollandse 'Land van Leeghwater': het polderlandschap tussen Alkmaar, Purmerend, Amsterdam en Haarlem. Onze bieren zijn gebalanceerd, relatief laag in alcohol én met veel smaak!

In de zomer van 2017 werd Brouwerij Leeghwater officieel een B.V. Er kwamen samenwerkingen tot stand met brouwerijen die meer brouwcapaciteit hadden. Daar worden onze recepten op dit moment op grote schaal gebrouwen. Vanaf 2017 worden de bieren bij Jopen vervaardigd, meer recent (2020) bij Hoop.

Tap at Cafe Gijs. Dark cloudy golden, offwhite lacing cream. Umami, souplike and flowey, perfumed aroma. Medium to full, body, flowery, soapy, certainly getting chamomile flower infused notes (dont remember what daisies taste like) a bit of a surprise if you don’t expect it to be a flowerbeer, but allright in the end, for some reason I am getting flashes of being trapped in a LUSH shop in the end.

Dark brown with thin head. Starts with a bit of brown sugar sweetness but then gets awfully grassy. Not a pleasant aroma. Taste is ok though.
