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.

Bottle from Dranken Geers. Weird. I had this down as a wheat beer in the Belgian Wit style. Hazy, very limpid gold. Lasting white head. Suitably lemony, soapy and cerealy. Standard Belgian wit. Fruit is better than most.

Bottled. Copper colour, small head. Light vinegary nose. Rather light bodied. Dry, despite some fruity malt sweetness, notes of oak, butter, tart lingonberry and cherry. Lightly citric and vinegary. Pretty good, but not as complex as the best Flemish browns IMO.

ZBF2008: From tap. Pours dark brown with a dense tan head. Light berry fruity aroma. Flavour is berry fruity swept in a dry roasted malt flavour. Mixed sweet and dry. Very smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Ends with a lingering dry malt flavour and a mild berry note on top.
