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.

Flaska från Etre Gourmete. Rödbrun klar vätska, krämigt medelhögt skum. Söt vinös djup doft. Läder, plommon, söt vinäger, sherry. Söt men med lite sträva tanniner, ganska tuff lite vinägeraktig syra, plommon med kärnor, mörka körsbär, fat. Bra balans, komplex, mycket gott.
