Description
De initiatiefnemers achter Brouwerij De Lepelaer, Sjaak van der Lee (1960) en zijn achterneef Nico Ruyter (1956), brouwen met toegevoegde grondstoffen uit de Beemster. Zo wordt er biologische tarwe uit de Beemster gebruikt en aromahop (Saaz) en bitterhop (Northern Brewer) uit de volkstuin van Sjaak. De brouwerij is genoemd naar een watervogel uit de woonomgeving van de initiatiefnemers.

Sinds 1 januari 2003 is de brouwerij officieel ingeschreven in het handelsregister van de Kamer van Koophandel. Tot 2016 werd er bij verschillende andere brouwerijen gebrouwen (o.a. De Schans, Proefbrouwerij). Sinds 2016 is er een eigen installatie in gebruik waar ongeveer 3.500 liter bier wordt gebrouwen.

Slightly hazy orange golden colour, white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, quite fruity, malts. Bitter flavour, hops, light malty, tropical fruits. Quite dry, hoppy finish, tropical fruits.
Nice and balanced beer, better than I was expecting actually.

On tap at NHBF’13. Hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of lovely citrus hops, some mango, light crisp malts, crackers. Flavour is crisp malts, crackers, lovely fruity and citrussy hops, nice bitterness. Light-bodied. Excellent summer beer imo, totally different from previous versions of this beer.
