Zenne Pils was brewed with the traditional method of decoction. This adds depth and complexity to its malty character, and makes it very nicely drinkable. It is neither pasteurised nor filtered, which makes it naturally hazy at low temperatures. It develops a fine bitterness, more pronounced than that of the “pils” we are used to drink in Belgium today. Moreover, it is generously hopped with old varieties of German hops that are considered to be the most noble ones, and which the Brasserie de la Senne brewmaster directly selected at one of the best hop growers’ of the South of Germany. 4,9% abv, keg only.
The logo was designed by the brewery’s resident artist, Jean Goovaerts. The Brussels pentagon recalls our national symbol, the Atomium, as well as -and most importantly- the imminent move of the brewery to its new site of Tour & Taxis, situated in the “1000 Brussels” commune.

Zenne beer tasting at Carlsens Kvarter. Crisp and clean, perhaps a little fruity and spicy.

Yellow-hazy pour with a decent white head lasting for quite some time. Flavour and aromas of malts, hops, minerals, grass/hay and citrus/lemons. Really nice pilsener.

On tap at Beerlovers Bar, pours a hazy pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out grassy hops, light herbal notes and straw. Flavour is bright and grassy, with straw, grassy hops, light herbal notes, and straw. Crisp and clean, with good depth. Very good.

330mL bottled 9/29/22, drunk 5/4/23. Mostly clear, lemon-brass. Creamy, white head sits rockily atop. Yep, that's lovely and dainty and bright without being overdone in the hop category, yet full of fresh herb and lots of easygoing lemon. Plentiful honey-like malts to balance. Bright, clean. Quite malty, huge depth, lots of honey-like character with hops having faded from 8 months in the bottle. But still lovely and clean without too much bitterness (but enough). Super, super drinkable.

Malty, hoppy taste with notes of bread, cereal, grass, citrus and a balanced herbal bitterness. Medium body, dry. Fresh and tatsy pilsener. Nice one.

Dry. And with that de La senne hoppiness. Easy going. Would love to slam it on tap.
