NEW RELEASE: Vanberg & Dewulf’s Hop Ruiter

This is a new release that required doing my homework.  It just recently became available not only in Georgia, but the United States.  It is a collaboration between Vanberg & Dewulf (Belgian beer importers) and Schelde Brouwerij (Meer, Belgium).  Looking into Vanberg & Dewulf’s website yielded the story on this beer:

“What happens when America’s original importer of Belgian artisan ales pairs up with one of Belgium’s most dynamic renegade microbreweries?
You get the next logical step in Belgo-American cross-fertilization – Vanberg & DeWulf’s Hop Ruiter.  This 8% ABV bottle-conditioned strong golden ale combines Belgian appreciation for aromatic esters with the American love of hops. The balanced blend of the two is being simultaneously launched in the US and the Low Countries. Based on early response we think it is going to be a Belgo-American classic.
