About
Brouwer - eigenaar Luc Vermeersch heeft een grote interesse voor traditionele ambachten. Niet vreemd dus dat hij destijds in zijn tuinhuis een broodoven en kleine brouwerij heeft geïnstalleerd. De minibrouwerij van 30 liter had hij in 1997 in Finland gekocht. Hij kreeg van de fabrikant juist geteld één weekend opleiding. Door veel zelfstudie en het maken van talloze kleine proefbrouwsels groeide zijn brouwkennis en -interesse. Na 10 jaar brouwen schreef hij zich in voor een brouwcursus. Tijdens het cursusjaar smeedde hij plannen voor een grotere brouwerij en begon hij her en der delen van de installatie te kopen. In april 2008 was brouwerij De Leite een feit.

33 cl. bottle split by 3 @ Bar Oud Postje. Pours dark pomegranate with a disappearing pink head. Nose is sweet cherries, light tart nose, touch yoghurt & vinegar. Taste is yoghurt, light dairy mixed with tart berries & some sweet cherries, touch bitter mould pits & some caramel malts, lingering sourness,… Way more sour than expected with a great fruit taste, very impressive stuff,… Easy to drink & substantial body, nice stuff here.

Bottle picked up in June 2013 from Dranken Geers, Oostakker, nr Gent, Belgie, consumed at Moreton in Marsh campsite, Friday 1st November 2013 Pours a beautiful, gorgeous, crystal clear scarlet red colour with a girlie pink head, looks stunning, absolutely superb. Sour nose, pushy sour cherries with a little damp paper. Clacky in mouth, sour cgerries, tart and then dry, there is a woody edge. There is a nod towards Rodenbach but only slight, this is out on its own. Love this, great beer, took a chance on this at Dranken Geers , had never seen before, will stock up next time.

Slightly hazy golden colour, white head. Light sour aroma, malts, citrus, light butter. Light sour flavour, citrus, malts, bit fruity, light wine touch. Finish citrus, lemon peel, white wine (surprisingly enough). Quite surprising and nice beer!

Bottle from ABC Leuven. Lemony nose with grains, bread, some hay. Seems somewhat hoppy. Dark gold-orange, clear, lots of bubbles and a frothy head. Tangy orange and lemon flavor with honey and biscuits, slightly sweet but somewhat tangy and a rather bitter, peppery finish. Nice citrus hop flavor. Spices. Somewhat creamy. I wouldn’t call it a super hoppy beer a la XX Bitter, but it is going in that direction. A bit too fizzy. Good.

Bottle from ABC Drinks. Chocolaty, winy nose, tons of raisins, maybe figs, dried fruit, plus apples coming out later. Slightly spicy. Very rich, full nose. Dark maroon-brown with a tall, fine, pillowy head. Not nearly as sweet as expected, rather tart actually, caramel, dark chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, orange, apples. Well balanced, though not as rich as the nose leads one to believe. Tangy finish is just slightly bitter. Light and clean dubbel, it turns out, with high drinkablility but not so much depth. Still good.
