Description
The organic brewing project of Gert Jordens, official since 2010 but active as a home brewer since 1999. Originally the beers were made at the Proefbrouwerij but production moved to Anders (and sometimes Strubbe) in 2013. One of the very few Belgian brewing companies which produce only organic beers; hops are exclusively sourced from Joris Cambie's organic hop farm in Poperinge. Exports 22% of its production, primarily to the Netherlands.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6

Aroma of spicy yeast, fruits, pale malt, citrus, strong floral notes, hint of hops. Flavour is light sweet with a light bitter finish. A bit run-of-the-mill, but easily drinkable and fairly tasty. Not bad at all considering the ABV.

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5

Aroma of malt, caramel, raisins, dried fruits, herbal notes, hint of hops. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a light to moderate bittersweet finish. Alcohol is fairly well hidden. Not the biggest Quad on the block, but dried fruits and slightly hoppy character are in its favour.

Aroma of fruits, yeast, coriander, honey, spicy notes, citrus. Flavour is moderate sweet with a light bitter finish. Rather plain Belgian Ale, lacking depth.

ZBF 2010: An brew where they used wheat starch from Seitanproduction(some veggy thing) but an interesting way to use wheat in a beer.
