Description
In 2007, the NV Brasserie Caulier was declared bankrupt. The Caulier brand name came into the hands of the beer company Bien-Être Développement, headed by the entrepreneur Eric Coppieters, which subsequently changed its name to Caulier Développement.

In 2012, he opened a new chapter in the long history of exceptional craft beers by vowing to deliver locally brewed craft beers, to sell them within 28 weeks of bottling through 28 gastro pubs and to deliver them within a 28 minute radius. This way our consumers and customers would receive the beer at peak flavour.

In 2013 the name was changed into Caulier Sugar Free. In 2020 - after a hefty capital investment - the name of the company was changed into Brasserie 28, which is more in line with the ambitious plans of Coppieters (like establishing of a new brewery in Brussels).

For the time being the beers are brewed at the Proefbrouwerij.

Just another tripel. This one is less sweet and cloying than many. Subtle bitterness, very yeasty. High on carbonation. Nothing wrong with it, nothing special about it. Tripel.
