Description
The brewery Slaghmuylder was founded in 1860 by Emmanuel Slaghmuylder. Around the turn of the century his son Ernest took over the company. He married Marie Van Roy, daughter of a brewer family of Wieze. His three sons opened a new brewery in 1926 which could start immediately with the new brewing process for lager beer. During the war of 1940-1945 brewing restarted for high-fermentation ales. It is only in1958 that the brewery started again with the production of low-fermentation beers. In the mid sixties the three brothers were succeeded by their sons. From 1979 on, the three nephews started brewing the Witkap Pater beers on request of brewery "De Drie Linden" from Brasschaat. In 1981 the Witkap Pater brand was officially taken over by Slaghmuylder. Beginning of theeighties the brewery was equipped with separate fermentation and layering cellars for both high and low fermentation beers. Brewery Slaghmuylder remains a unique family company that builds on a rich tradition.

33 cl bottle purchased at Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington. Pour is hazed golden with a bright white one inch head. A few carbonation bubbles float to the surface, head falls slowly with decent lacing. Aroma of herbal spice yeastiness up front, soft and gentle, followed close behind by a pleasant straw grassiness. Hint of cloves behind that. Taste has the clove spice clove herbal yeast in front, followed by the straw grassiness that has a nice hop bitterness to it. Behind this is a honey semi-sweet bready maltiness that provides a really nice background. The finish reveals some orange fruit citrus. Palate is medium, with nice active carbonation and a drying finish. Really a lot of nice subtle flavors going on in this beer; classy.

Bottle: Almost clear, deep amber coloured, some floaties visible; stable beige foamy layer; moderate to solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; slightly increasing bitterness towards the malty-fruity finish, a warming alcohol-burn in the aftertaste included. Not bad, but quite simple......

Bottle from Ohtsuki. Aroma big with green apples, plus honey, spices, and a touch of citrus. Colored like a pale pilsner, with fountain-like bubble action and a huge, rocky, growing(!!!) head. Wacky! Light, dry flavor, with again, green apple, light honey, pepper. Not very sweet at all. Sour and slightly bitter. Interesting and unique. Very clean, crisp, very light in body and also rather light in flavor, but with great hops. Extremely high attenuation. Leaves me wanting more body and sweetness, but not disappointed that they aren’t there.

12th August 2008. Dry and fruity - recalls a lemony wheat beer with a splash of lambic like sourness thrown in. Light frothy and dry - a palate livener!

Bottle from Dranken Geers. Clear pale gold with hint of green, lasting white head. Butter on aroma. A slightly buttery lager, which is ok, but not great, but the butter isn’t great. Mouthfeel is ok and so is the sparky hop sting on the finish. Hmmmm Diacetyl. Hop on finish is ok, so is the mouthfeel and swallow. But diacetyl is not good.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a fizzy white head. Aroma is some Belgian yeast with a bit of citrus. Flavor is again more yeast with some slight baryard and funk. Everything is very light in this beer. This is not a bad beer by any means but for the price tag you can’t go back to this one after the first try, just not many things to revisit.
