Description
Luc Savels is een huurbrouwer of zigeneurbrouwer soms ook wel een beetje minachtend koekoeksbrouwer genoemd.

Luc brengt zijn bieren op de markt onder de naam Punaise maar koos als bedrijfsnaam voor de geuzennaam De Koekoeksbrouwer-ei. Jawel met een ei en geen ij want Luc legt zijn bier-ei in het nest van een andere brouwerij en niet in een eigen brouwerij.

De Punaise bieren zijn soms klassieke bierstijlen maar met een eigen twist (zoals de Punaise Boozy Blonde Tripel of de Punaise Juicy Blond) of bierstijlen die je in de lage landen niet vaak kan vinden zoals de Double Irish Red Punaise Rosse Tinke.

Bottle at home shared with Laura. Clear darker golden color, medium to full sized white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, yeasty, grape peel soft tart and wood. Typical blonde beer aged on red wine barrels. Exactly what you could expect.

Bottle at home. Clear golden color initially, cloudy after pouring in the last bit of the bottle, huge foamy white head. Aroma is that typical witbier smell I'd say, lemon-ish and refreshing. Flavor is similar: wheat, lemon, somewhat bitter. High carbonation. Solid witbier.

Roodbruin vrij helder bier met mooie schuimkraag. Smaak is fruitig en zoetzuur met iets van bessen, wat kersen, een beetje karamel en wat graan.

Bottle (light gusher) shared with Jan & Charlotte when visiting Ulfborg on our holiday. Great to meet up! Amber color, average sized beige head. Aroma is malts, caramel, oddly something strawberry jam-ish in there and whisky. Flavor is malts, caramel, whisky, something sweet in there as well (Laura said it reminds her of sweet red wine) which is a nice touch and balances the beer. Quite complex in the end. A bit fizzy carbonation, or lively I should say. Pretty good I'd say.

Bottle from Delhaize.
A: hazy brown, small, foamy, off-white head.
A: raisin, fig, clove, liquorice, rubber, tobacco.
T: sweet raisin, fig & pear; toffee, spicy liquorice, bit meaty.
F: herbal hops, phenolic clove, meat, rubber, boozy peated whisky alcohol.
P: medium body, syrupy texture, soft carbonation.
The BA treatment is quite 'raw' here, resulting in a 'meaty' profile. Otherwise okay.

Decent, but the barrel doesn't add much to the base beer .
