Special beers

There are many beers with different characters, whether due to their flavour, level of alcohol, region of production, colour, etc. One might think that the belong to no category.

"Gruut"  was a  spice mixture  used in the  Middle Ages  to flavor the light beer. The herbal mixture contained oat sage, trout, yarrow, rosemary, gale, pine needles and dead nettle. Hops were introduced later by the German monks and as a result the herbs disappeared.

For the Wittoen we do it the other way around and we replace the hops again with a  number of old-fashioned herbs . In the end we obtain a subtly flavoured,  amber colored beer . Definitely taste it!

Clear golden-orange, small, foamy, white head. Aroma of ripe apricot, pear, apple, honey, clove, dough, fruit liqueur, vague varnish. Taste has sweet apricot, pear & soft banana, honeyish and doughy malty profile with spicy clove-like bitterness for a phenolic effect. Floral hoppy finish, lingering ripe fruit yet something dry-yeasty too to balance things out; rather boozy rum-like alcohol in the very end. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Good, sweetness was actually kept in check but eventually a bit too heavy on the alcohol.
