Description
Gezien bier brouwen steeds energie vraagt van de aarde willen wij zo ecologisch mogelijk werken. Dit beleid voeren we door in ons brouwproces, maar ook in de oorsprong van onze ingrediënten. De brouwerij heeft als doel een off-grid brouwerij te zijn.

Onze eigenzinnigheid weerspiegelt zich in onze bieren. We brouwen met gezuiverd regenwater, gebruiken biologische en circulaire grondstoffen zoals oud brood, wagen ons aan een laag-alcoholische pils en gerijpt bier op bordeaux vaten. Bier met inhoud.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Thompson. Label days bottle date September 4th 2015. Cloudy orange color, full sized rough white head that lasts for quite a while and leaves fair lacing. Aroma is hard to describe, sort of a slight sweetish fruity hint. Tastes about the same: lightly malts, slightly sweet, a distant hint of fruit. Decent body and carbonation. Bit weird but not offensive.

Sample @ 6de Gents Bierfestival 2015. Léger orangé, col fin blanc. Arôme est houblonné restant dans une tonalité belge, càd noble. Retrouve un rétro procurant une fine effluve de levure et un léger épicé. Palais reste dans une lignée très belge, malt de caractère pils voire cara, certaine douceur se fait ressentir surtout en fin de bouche. La levure procure une fine pointe d’épice. Retrouve un fin profil ester fruité de banane.

First beer from an actual new micro brewery in the center of Ghent. Loose, creamy, snow white head, misty ’old gold’ colour with somewhat orangey hue. Rainwater is the first impression I get when I put my nose in the glass, paired with hints of apple, honey, flowers, biscuit and, alas, unmistakable DMS (cooked white cabbage). Spritzy onset with fairly strong carbo, fruity notes of peach, banana and pineapple, ’Belgian bubblegum’ impression, soft and relatively light caramelly malt body, bit minerally, floral and grassy hop bitterishness in the finish. Not all bad for a first attempt, but still has a few flaws which should be eliminated before venturing into wider distribution or expanding the range, I think - if that is the intention, of course.

(Thx! for sharing) Sampled bottled @ Gents Bierfestival 2015. Hazy orange, little white. Nose is weak, sweetish dough, hay, aspirin. Taste is aspirin, artificial sweetener, dough, milky, candy, yeast. Heavy yeast body. Meh, so/so & very unremarkable. There are more than enough other beers like this out there.

Small off-white rim over fully hazy ochre-orange beer. Perfumey, garden herbs, floral, slightly artificial nose. Sweet, pineapple, with just a light hint @ sourishness. In fact, rather dull. Light slickness, light to medium bodied. Motivation?
