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.

(On tap @ VilleValla Pub, Linköping, Oct 8 2015) Pours pink/red and slightly opaque with a few whitish bubbles on top. Aroma is acidic, lacto and light acetic, with lots of sour cherry flesh, some wet earth/sulfurous funk notes and oak, light hints of bready malt. On the palate, lactic lemon and sour cherry dominate making it quite tart, with an intense acidic sour bite even for a kriek. Hints of sweetness from the fruit and a little oak show up mid-palate. Funk is restrained compared to the nose. The finish has a real fruit-lacto pucker to it, with acetic hints. Fairly light but not watery, with light carbonation. A pretty decent cherry beer, really on the acidic side but reasonably drinkable still. Solid.

330ml bottle [Merci barman ’t le bier!]. Slightly cloudy, orangey, pale golden colour with huge, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. With opening the bottle and at the latest from pouring, a bretty aroma with typical sweet-ish bubblegum and funky touch fills the room; the nose is nevertheless dominated by citrusy fruity hoppy flavours, notes of lemon, grapefruit, nectarine, mirabelle, peach peel, the bretty notes remain present in subordinated attitude, additionally some peppery spicyness. Taste is slightly bitter hoppy, citrusy, hints of lemon and grapefruit, funky undertones, some peach peel, a peppery spicy touch; slightly prickling, refreshing carbonation with bridled liveliness. Though quite complex, very drinkable due to its excellent balance.

Pours unclear blonde, small white head. Smell is weak. Taste is bitter, mildly grainy. Dry. Very high in carbonation. Tastes like a very basic, yet well-made tripel. Problem is, there are so damn many tripels... And this one doesn’t excel...

Pours unclear darker blonde / light amber. Ok foam. Scent is dry, malty, with overripe-fruity-yeast . Taste is surprisingly bitter, over a grainy back. High carbo. I don’t get any taste of ambermalts, accept maybe a hint in the aftertaste. OK beer, agreeable, but not above average
