Keyte Ostêns Belegeringsbier

Brewed by Brouwerij Strubbe
Style: Abbey Tripel
Ichtegem, Belgium

Cloudy blond beer with a small head. Light pleasant fruity nose. A rather hoppy Belgian trippelish taste. Light bitter finish. A good beer.

Bottle, 33 cl. First time taste at june 06: karaterbierevent) Blond color. White, frothy head. Aroma of vanilla, hops, coriander. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet flavour. Nice hoppy bitter. Good beer.

Clear blond with a small white head. Nice pale malt character with a great floury body. Typical blonde tripel fruity notes with the addition of some wild flowers. Very little alcohol presence. Short hop bitterness. Looking at other people’s comments I seem to have liked this one more than I should have. It doesn’t re-invent the wheel but for me its great body made it a superior tripel. Mine was simply called Stubbe Keyte and that’s a good thing cause I would have never ordered it by it’s real full name.

Bottled - Cambrinus - Brugge. A dark blonde coloured beer with a white head. The aroma is yeasty with peppery hop and some lemony notes. Strong alcohol also on the nose. The taste is thick and strong. Good alcohol. Nice yeasty notes and a touch of lemon. Mouthfilling and decent.

Bottle at Cambrinus, Bruges. Down as Keyte Strubbe. Gold, thin white head. Strongish alcohol, some tangerine. Bit too strong.

Very triple like beer. Lightyellow with a good big head. Smells very nice: malt, fruity, bit of yeast, vanilla. Tastes sourrish, bitterish and alcoholic, some dimethylsulfide but just enough(quite nice if it’s not too much). Very nice one.

Yellow color. Lovely aroma. Sweet, rich malt and candy sugar, a little dry - fun on tongue - significant carbonation. Big corked bottle. Tasted at Cracked Kettle tasting in Amsterdam, but picked up in Belgium.

Clear golden beer with a big white head. Hoppy and yeasty aroma. Sweet maltiness, some warming alcohol, quite spicy with coriander. Well-carbonated, full-bodied. Quite good.
