Description
In 2009 starten Thijs Maenhout en Birgit De Rammelaere met een kleine brouwerij in een voormalige bouillonfabriek tussen Tielt en Meulebeke. In 2014 verhuizen zij naar Pittem omdat de capaciteit van de brouwerij niet meer voldoende bleek. Begin 2015 draait de nieuwe brouwerij, met een capaciteit van 1200 hectoliter, op volle toeren.

75cl bottle shared with Joes and Dutchdrebus. Clear golden color, full sized active white head that lasts for quite a while and leaves a fair lacing. Smell malts, hops, some fruityness. Taste malts, hops, slightly fruity, bitter. Bitter and slightly weird finish, a bit thin bodied, a bit high carbonated. Not bad, but not as good as I had hoped.

Bottle, 75cl. A cute looking beer, almost clear, golden in color and topped by a dense, finger-thick white head. The aroma has some light spicyness, as well as pale malts, toffee and a generic fruityness. Quite sweet, in a pleasant way, on the palate, full-bodied and nicely carbonated. Still, it feels quite dryish, especially towards the finish. Some bitterness, and pale malts, toffee hints and fruityness. A faint spiced touch too. Pleasant bitterness in the end. Not your everyday tripel, but a nice beer anyway. 111229

No gushing, but once pouring, one ends with 95% of dense, white foam (quite stable) and 5% of clear copper-golden beer; Stinks to high heaven upon opening. Sulphur, cooking cabbage, faeces, but also lunaria, garden herbs, hops. Tastes thankfully better, but the sulphur remains there, and seems to hail from the dried, harsh and crude hops. They might be American, they are not aromatic C-hops - or they have suffered cruelly from the voyage. Finish has reminiscences of smelly running cheese, even when lemon and lemonpeel feature as well. Titillating carbonation, medium bodied, somehow refreshing; It’s not really bad. But it DOES stink.
