Westmalle Extra (4.8%) brewed at Westmalle Abbey in Westmalle (Belgium).
This #trappistale is one of the abbey's oldest beers. In 1836 the monks of Westmalle started brewing light and refreshing beers for their own consumption and the Extra is a beer from this tradition.
It is indeed not too strong but it's rich in body and flavour. The Abbey yeast takes a prominent role, giving it a fruity, musty aroma and a full body, malty yet also with a long lasting bitterness. It may not be the most original #trappistbeer but it's a tasty thirst quencher and that is perfect for a hot day like today.

Stuut juicy dolly neipa (5.8%) brewed by Brasserie Caulier in Peruwelz (Belgium).
Since 2017 Brasserie Caulier is exploring different beer styles under the #Stuut brand-name. This juicy dolly is beer nr. 25. It's brewed from barley, wheat and oat malts, lactose and double dry hopped with motueka and citra hops. It's a beautiful hazy neipa with a tropical aroma. The taste is crisp and fresh with strong notes of citrus fruits and a good bitter finish.

Zwaanzinnig wit (4.5%) brewed by Bird Brewery from Diemen (the Netherlands) brewed in the tanks of Jopen Beer in Haarlem.
A wheat beer brewed from wheat, barley, oats, orange peel and aromatic hops. The result is a refreshing beer, nice and grainy, with a tropical hoppiness and a hint of orange. The name is a combination of zwaan (swan) and waanzinnig (crazy /outrageously good). All beers have names with birds in them. The brewery tries to do a lot of projects around sustainability and nature and has, for instance, planted many trees already.

Suay Thai kaffir lime blanche (4.9%) brewed by Tipsy Tribe Brewstillery in Koekelberg (Belgium)
Nothing says #homesweethome more than a very local beer!🍻
This beer is made from barley, oats and with kaffir lime as a special ingredient. The result is a zesty beer with a herbal lime flavour, a good bitterness and quite a spiced aroma. Tastes like summer!

Island ale (4.9%) brewed by Kura Kura Brewery, Bali, Indonesia.
A tropical and refreshing pale ale, with a good bitterness, a hint of citrus and a bit of malty sweetness. Kura kura means turtle in Bahasa Indonesia and the brewery found the inspiration for their name in the folklore tale that the island of Bali was resting on the back of a turtle.

Bintang Crystal lager (4.3%) brewed by Bintang (Heineken) breweries in Indonesia.
A cold brewed lager, marketed as a premium beer, reminding me of Corona in the same type of glass bottle.
It has a little less alcohol than the normal Bintang lager, is a bit smoother, maltier and less bitter. Easy drinking and a good thirst quencher in the tropical Indonesian weather.

A golden pilsener brewed with German Hallertauer and Herkules hops. A malty sweet beer, not bitter at all, but it has crisp and refreshing notes of hops. An enjoyable thirst quencher with a cool name!

Andaz pale ale (4,99%) brewed for the Andaz Hotel and their restaurants, in Buleleng, Bali ( Indonesia)
A tasty pale ale, full of biscuity malt notes but also with a refreshing crisp hoppiness. Very enjoyable, especially with the nice food of Fishermans Club restaurant.

Small Hazy ipa (4.8%) brewed by Island Brewing in Bali (Indonesia).
Nothing better for tropical weather than a flavourful, not too strong IPA. This beer has a nice tropical aroma of peach and mango, a good hoppy bitterness and a slightly juicy flavour. And of course, light and refreshing as well. Yum!

Easy ale kolsch (4.1%) brewed by Kura Kura Brewery, Bali, Indonesia.
Very pleased to report that craft beer from Indonesia does exist. I had quite a few these past weeks and this is one of them.
This kolsch is refreshing, light in body with a flavorful malty taste, brewed well in style. Kura kura means turtle in Bahasa Indonesia and the brewery found the inspiration for this name in the folklore tale that the island of Bali was resting on the back of a turtle.

Bir Singaraja (4.8%) brewed by Stark Beer Brewery in Singaraja, Bali (Indonesia). A classic pilsener beer with a hint of bitter hops and lots of malty sweetness which makes it easy drinking. Ideal with the tropical weather in Bali. Made in the north of the island, in the former capital.
