Description
Gebrouwen door Vrouwen (Brewed by Women) originated as a hobby of two sisters from Amsterdam. They started brewing beer in 2013, at home in a 35 liter pan. They mastered the brewing process through trial and error. Now they know exactly how to make a fresh, sweet and tasty beer. At home they continue to experiment to keep creating new beers. The best beers are brewed in large quantities for everyone to enjoy!

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is bready wheat malt, various spices such as star anise, clove, and caramom, with yeast, mild banana and a touch of ripe/candied fruits. Flavour is medium sweet with a hint of wheaty sourness and a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. I’m not usually a fan of highly spiced beers and star anise in particular, but it kind of works in this smooth Dunkelweizen.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is malty and spicy with cinnamon, soft pumpkin, caramel, a touch of dried fruits and nutmeg. Flavour is medium sweet and moderate to medium bitter. Body is medium. I wish more Pumpkin Ales were like this one. Not too sweet, spicy but not ridiculously so, fruity with a decent hop bitterness. Surprising!

From tap at Beers & Barrels, Utrecht. Aroma is floral with elderflower, malt, yeast, more herbal notes, lightly fruity. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter. Body is medium. Not bad at all, nice elderflower aroma with a decent bitterness for the style.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is wheaty pale malt with cereal, soft orange and lime, light floral-ish hop, not really picking up the seaweed. Flavour is moderate sweet and light bitter. Body is light. Overall very light and breezy, highly refreshing. Much more enjoyable than I expected. One for the beach.

330ml can from Beer52 branded differently as 'Brewed By Women - Blossom Blonde' which must be the English translation. Slight ABV change at 5.5%. Pours a dark gold with a slight pink hue with off white head and decent retention. Aroma of elderberry, grain, flora. Taste again is very floral and elderberry notes with a slight sweet resinous and bitter grass in the finish. Medium bodied, a bit cloying. The adjunct has been overdone. I don't like it much.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is ginger with additional spicy notes, not much else going on. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter with a medium body. Expected this to be way worse, the bitterness saves this from the 'ginger ale' comparison.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Hazy orange colored brew with an delicate sweet bitter taste, hints of banana, anise and cardamom. Its smells in the beginning somehow like an Arabian/Mediterranean herb and spice market, but not in an bad way.
