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.

Sampled from bottle @ Niilstrong birthday party. Ugly murky orange-ish color, no head. Smell and taste are lightly sourish, sweetish peachy hints. Pleasant soft to average body and carbonation. Steinbier? Hm definitely wouldn't have guessed that in a blind tasting but the beer I quite enjoy.

Sampled from bottle @ Niilstrong birthday party. Dark brown to black color, fizzy brown head that diminishes quickly. Aroma of malts, dark and roasted malts. Taste malts, dark and roasted malts, a hint of liquorice and firm malt bitter. Fortunately I don't get any marshmallow. Average body, high fizzy and annoying carbonation.

Bottle at Winterbierfestival Gouda. Bit hazy copper with beige head. Ginger, coriander, sugar, Christmas spices, bitter herbs, caramel. Lots of winter spices in this one. Medium sweet and bitter. Over medium bodied. A bit too much spices for me but it’s not too bad overall.
