Blaugies / Hill Farmstead La Vermontoise

Easy peasy, I write down date when I drank it and the BB-date.
20/IV/13 - 75cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ Erwin’s post aquarium BBQ - BBE: 2016 - (2013-341)

Also, since the first entry dates from februari 2013, it is safe to assume we all had the same first batch. Meaning they put on 3 years (unless they bottled late 2012, then they put on 4 years).

I visited the brewery and then learned why the first batch was so much better. For the first batch they used the amount of hops, as proposed by Sean Hill. in later batches they started using way less hops, as the brewer is not such a fan of (US) hops. Too bad, cause I remember loving that first batch very much, and indeed the disappointment with the later batches.

Ha, I like the later batches better! But I'd still rather have a Saison d'Epeautre, so there you go.
