Description
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.

Bottle at ’t Brugs Beertje. Pours hazy brown gold with a white head. Aroma of ripe, light fruits. Medium body with foamy carbonation. Flavor is somewhat tinny, but mainly caramel and hop/spice. It’s well worth drinking. No sugar; nicely clean and bitter.

Bottled. An unclear golden beer with a bit of sediment floating around under a lazing white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of yeast as well as lighter notes of lacto bacteria and coriander. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, peaches, and spices, especially coriander, leading to a dry spicy finish.

Had this at Zythos Beer Festival, March 7th and 8th 09 Pours dark brown bit of a murky muddy appearance with a light beige head. The aroma is subtle but there is some sweetness and a little sourness on the edge. Taste is sweet and yet there is a nice citric touch, some tangerine perhaps, yeastiness and maltiness complete the picture. A6 A4 F7 P4 OV15 3.6
