Belgian Pale Ale 4.8 º

Brouwersnös

Woeste Wim is a refreshing Belgian Pale Ale defined by the inclusion of estate-grown, freshly picked hops harvested during the brewery's Hopfeest. This limited release balances a foundation of bready and lightly toasty malts with a vibrant, green hop character unique to fresh-coned additions. Aromas of pear, orange, and apple mingle with herbal, slightly grassy hop notes. On the palate, a soft honey-like sweetness transitions into a mild, clean bitterness that highlights the beer’s crisp nature. Named after brewer Wim, it offers a refined yet lively expression of harvest-fresh ingredients within a classic, sessionable Belgian framework.

Appearance. Deep amber to bright copper with brilliant clarity. Pours with a dense, creamy, rocky white head that shows good retention and leaves delicate lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a bready and biscuity malt backbone with hints of honey. Complemented by moderate fruity esters suggesting red apple and pear. The fresh hop addition contributes a distinctively herbal, floral, and slightly grassy character that is more pronounced than in traditional examples.

Taste. Initial soft, smooth malt flavors of toasted bread and light caramel. Mid-palate introduces a refreshing fruitiness of orange zest and pear. The hop character is fresh and herbal, providing a medium-low bitterness that balances the malt without becoming harsh. Finishes clean and off-dry with a lingering note of floral hops.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, approachable texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively and refreshing prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is negligible, enhancing its sessionable quality.
