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.

25cl bottle: Pours hazy amber with a very fine stable & lasting white creamy head. Aroma is sweet of malts, bread, fruits & yeast. Medium body & carbonation. Dry & a slight hoppy end. But the flavor really lacks something - very anonymous. Short end!

Bottled. Amber colour, small white head. Aroma is yeast, spices, alcohol and rather much caramel and even some candyish sweetness lurking. Flavour is caramel malts, wooden and vanillaish with a touch of alcohol and fruityness. A smooth brew to drink. Wellbalanced.

Dark amber colour, thin head. Sweet sugary aroma with some fruit. Textureis a little soapy. Sweet candy flavour dominates giving hints of strawberry and orange. The malty finish is most welcome.

Bottled. Golden colour, huge white bubbly, quite long lasting head. A lot of lacing. Aroma gives some earth, fruits, vegetables, and some mild notes of wood. Flavour is vegetables, lots of fruits, some herbs and some grassyness. Pleasantly balanced, but gets a bit boring after a while.

(25cl bottle) Hazy, amber colour with a fluffy white foam. Slightly yeasty, sourish sweet caramel-malty aroma with citrus-fruity notes and herbal spices. Slightly sweet and acidic flavour with a mild carbonation. Malt-accented, moderately fruity taste with spicy side effects; fairly slim, malty, slightly bitter and sourish finish with spicy and light flowery hoppy notes. Soft and pleasant brew, but not world-shaking.

Pale brown colour. Aroma is quite chemically, with the smell of washing up liquid. It has a sweet, shandy like taste leaving some sugary sweetness on the lips. Lacks body in the mouth but does leave a warming aftertaste.

(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy, amber golden with some impurities and a tall, bubbly and lively, off-white head. Medium body with fairly sweet malts and fruit. Rather discreet bitterness. A very mellow Tripel - and somewhat unspectacular. 271207
