Description
Preparations for Leidsch Bier started in 2003. Before that, owner / brewer JW Fukkink had been active as an amateur beer brewer since 2000. The official start was a fact with the introduction of Leidsch Blond in April 2004. With the move to own business premises (mid 2010) and obtaining the brew / excise permit (May 2011), there was finally a real beer brewery in Leiden again.

Bottle at ABC Beers, Den Haag. This is a really great IPA and probably one of the very best in the Netherlands. Poured a lovely, slightly cloudy golden brown with a lovely frothy head and loads of lace. A lovely combination of hops delivers a wonderfully smooth bitterness that is an absolute delight. One of my favourite IPA's and a real find. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Courtesy of Jan (fonefan); bb 20/09/12; could this be 6 months old?
Hazy amber color with generous creamy head. Mild but nice hoppy aroma, a bit fruity and metallic; late hop resins. The body is weak and the mouthfeel very dry; dry toffee flavor, with decent hop contribution, very light fruity touch, and some more piney resins; correct bitterness; the final is weak and not interesting, there is some paper. Drinkable, but possibly unfresh.

Light copper colour. Tight lacy head. Fresh hoppy aroma. Quite sweet with some tropical fruit. Well rounded, soft feel, even a bit creamy. The hop is both fruity and dry.
