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.

500ml bottle pour @ Poperinge Bier Festival 2024. Pours gold with a fine mist. Crisp sharp brut with a good effervescence, pleasant sweet apple with white grape notes. Doesn't jump out as being wild necessarily, perhaps a light sour tang, ok

500ml bottle pour @ Poperinge Bier Festival 2024. Pours a relatively clear pink, gentle carbonation. Crisp bright acidity, subtle rhubarb with a soothing strawberry sweetness emerging on the swallow. No tannin presence at all. Expected a little more natural fruit definition. Fine overall.

25cl from a 330ml bottle @ Poperinge Bier Festival 2024. Pours a hazed reddish amber, good off-white head. Aroma of amber malt, grain. Flavour profile delivers mostly red ale malts, soft and a touch grainy, with gentle fruity tangents without getting overly sweet or complex. Ok.

Bottle from Delhaize.
A: hazy golden, small, off-white head.
A: ripe apple & plum, vodka, cake, moist white pepper, vague glue.
T: sweet apple & plum, spicy phenols, cake, bread crust.
F: floral hops, ripe yellow fruits, phenols and warming vodka-like alcohol.
P: medium body, oily texture, average carbonation.
Boozy indeed, but why would that be a good starting point?

A dark yellow beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has fruitness with some sweet and dried fruits. Taste has the same fruitness as in the aroma, some spicyness and strenght of alcohol. Medium bodied. Pretty nice.

Medium, stable, just off-white head over very carbonated, fully hazy ochre-orange beer. Dusty, chalk, citrus, pale malts, bit peppery. Sweet, bit boozy (indeed) with a citrussy, almost sourish finish. Bit hoppy, just giving an idea of bitterness. Alcohol is obvious, quite slick, oily to viscous. Again one of those... nothing wrong at all, but what is the purpose? Purchased @ Dranken Goegebuer, Knesselare
