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.

Very good, dense, lightly yellow-coloured head, over fully hazy orange-yellow beer, looking as a German Hefeweizen for all the world. Nose is a bit milk-like, and grassy. After some time, hops appear, interwoven with fresh green grainstalks or grass. Slightly caramelly taste, but without real sweetness initially; garden herbs, and again quite grassy. Ends a bit neutral. Backthroat finally some sweetness with alcohol and malty sugars combined, especially after some warming up. Ever so slightly burning MF, medium bodied, grist slickness and yeast notes in the aftertaste. Pleasing brew, impressive for a first commercial try. I would have applauded even more, had the brewer and his friends refrained from trying to beef up the notes for their brew artificially.
