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.

Will probably not like this, but oh well... Bought by mistake. Smell-weak, faint sour tones, faint yeast, citrus. Foam- thin, some sour notes, some faint citrus and more sourness... Head is small, and white in color. Sticks. Appearance- brewer bottle cap, simple label. From - pint Taste- sourness, faint citrus and then more sourness. Sour beers just taste off for me. I cant drink this, why I buy them? Poured out.
