Description
In de schaduw van de Ichtegemse kerk ligt Brouwerij Strubbe, een brouwerij die al generaties lang behoort tot de familie Strubbe. De bierproductie gebeurt nog steeds op een ambachtelijke manier, zij het met moderne productiemethodes. Ook in het buitenland lusten ze wel een Ichtegems gebrouwen biertje. Een groot deel van de bierproductie wordt verscheept naar het buitenland waaronder Italië, Duitsland, maar ook naar Japan en zelfs Amerika. Het succesverhaal van brouwerij Strubbe is er dan ook eentje die leest als een echte story waarbij een grote passie en ongebreideld enthousiasme voor het bierbrouwen generatie na generatie werd doorgegeven.

750 I bought for $22 from the NRG beer shop. 2013 bottling. Pours a deep garnet amber with a ring of pinkish head. Nice nose has raw cherry, some raw strawberry too, a little candy, some raw green apple. Flavor has the raw cherry and raw apple, some candi, some pomegranate vinegar, some regular pomegranate. Finishes full bodied, acetic and a touch hot.

Part of a long delayed delivery from belgiuminabox, I am happy to rate my first quadrupel in a long time. In honor of the event I have broken out my Chimay glass to hold the pour. The 33 cl bottle is opened and tilted, I observe a malty brown liquid finished by a glorious parchment-colored, creamy head. The scent wafts up to me, dark fruit along with nectarines and bread dough. The taste is straightforward for a quad. Full grain bread, a touch of dark plums, yeast, malt and earth. The sensation is dense and chewy. A very credible quad but not one of the best I’ve tried.

Pinkish-yellow medium head, fast reduced to rim, leaving some disparate lace over deep dark ruby beer. Fruity nose, cantaloupe, almonds, cherrysyrup. Bitter flavour, even some roast, overlying a cloying sweet flavour as if liquidized cookies with fruitjam glaze. Flavours clash. Dark/red fruit extract. Gradually, the syrupy sweetness becomes more dominating. Well-bodied, syrupy-slick, medium to good carbonation. Come on, Marc!! Anno 2020 it is perfectly possible to make money with something less artificial!
