Description
Started as a project to celebrate friendship by bringing Belgian recipes to Finland, but now thriving in Belgium! All recipes are made by Martin, whose last name is Renard, which means fox in French and that's also what Kettu means in Finnish, hence the name! We started out launching more Belgian inspired beers, but now go all out and try different things, always keeping the Belgian roots of the brand in mind and since the arrival of the brand in Belgium we also sometimes include some Finnish elements. Kettu is now brewed by Martin at Cabardouche in Antwerp.

Pours clear, light yellow. No head. Scent is lemony. Wheat, tart impression. Taste is tart, dry, lemony. Medium low to low carbo. Thin body, touch herbal / green by the hops that ate to silent to support the expectations a name with 'Dry Hopped' in it bring to the table.

Draught Huge, dense, darker cream head, stable, over virtually black beer. Dry hops, dry hopbales, dry chocolate. (Black) chocolate very outspoken, again Hessian sacks, dried hosp. Hint at brown candi sugar, sweet brown bread. CO² very imposing in the MF, chocolate flows out into the aftertaste. At least medium bodied. More than decent BIPA (though the recently tasted Tourist #23 tops it easily).

Draught Small white head over cold hazed golden beer. Very attractive C-hops' nose, with faint hints of citrus, exotic fruit, asafoetida, garden herbs as lemonbalm, lemonthyme, cilandro. Very mild acidity with floral overtones, blossoms, diluted (exotic) fruitjuice. Some soft velvety sweetness underneath. Refreshing, soft carbonation, bit slick. Very drinkable.
