Description
Kleiburg is the beer of the Klei Monastery: a spiritual and hospitable place in the Amsterdam Bijlmer neighbourhood. We are a social enterprise and are inspired by traditional Belgian monastery beers and give it an innovative twist. This results in very own specific beers: always recognizable and at the same time surprising.

Bottle [as "Eiken Weizen"> @ home. Hazy orange color, medium sized off-white head that diminishes fairly quickly. Aroma and flavor both have a distinct wood and light smoke touch to it. I get wheat, yeast and a fruitpeel-ish sour-bitter a little later. Average body, thin but fizzy carbonation. Meh, don’t like it.
