About
Het verhaal achter de brouwerij begint bij stamvader Balthazar De Landtsheer, die in 1773 in Baasrode werd geboren en er brouwerij “ De Halve Maan “ oprichtte. Zijn zoon, Eduard De Landtsheer, geboren in 1808, nam de roerstok over. In 1839 nam zijn kleinzoon, Emmanuel De Landtsheer, zijn intrek in de bestaande afspanning-boerderij-brouwerij “'t Meuleke“ in Baasrode-Zuid. Hij veranderde de naam in “Brouwerij De Zon“ (vandaar de oranje huiskleur). Het bedrijf was zo succesvol dat de boerderij mettertijd werd afgestoten en dat bier brouwen de hoofdactiviteit werd. Na zijn overlijden in 1879 werd Emmanuel eerst opgevolgd door zijn zoon Charles en later door zijn kleinzoon die ook Emmanuel heette. Emmanuel De Landtsheer schakelde tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog over van brouwen op bottelen en bierhandel. Na de oorlog kreeg zijn zoon Adolf de leiding in handen.

In augustus 1997 werd in de oude brouwerij van de familie De Landtsheer terug opgestart door Manu De Landtsheer, zoon van Adolf, onder de naam “Brouwerij Malheur“. Zo werd de familiale brouwtraditie in ere hersteld.

10 Tripel Magistral from Brouwerij Malheur
20 years ago
6.9/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
An orange beer with lots of yeast floating around underneath a thick off-white head. The aroma is strong sweet, yeasty, and fruity as well as with a dusty note from the hops. The flavor is very sweet with strong notes of coriander, fruit - especially peaches, and alcohol - a little like a desert of preserved peaches with fruit syrup and a peach liquor to go along. The alcohol tickles and warmths the tongue.

250 ml bottle, bought in Frederikshavn, Denmark. Hazy dark brown colour, large tan head. Pleasant aroma of dark malts, hops, chocolate, oak and bakery. Flavour is heavy dark malts, sweet, oaky and spicy, hoppy finish. Warming mouthfeel as expected from a 12% ABV beer, there’s a certain "raw" and alcoholic edge (not entirely pleasant) that probably would benefit from a few years in a cellar. Powerful stuff, with a potential for improvement!

Brut Cuvée Royale from Brouwerij Malheur

6.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
75 cl bottle. Hazy orange color, medium white head. Aroma is bit spicy and malty, some champagne, bit alcohol. Same taste. Bit disappointing if you compare this to the other Brut beers of Malheur.

Bottled. Dark brown colour, small off-white head. Aroma of yeast, sour fruits and orange marmelade. Marmelade, yeast and sweet malts in flavour. Positively sweet, but still very wellbalanced, and best of all, it hides the 12% ABV very well. Complex, and I bet this would age very well.

Golden hazed ale with an extra thick white head. Again, the classic coriander and catnip in aroma, with notes of thyme. In mouth, a light and spicey malt, crisp with a tingly mouthfeel, oily character, coriander, orange peels. Rich and smooth. Mondial 2006.

Bottled [BB 03/2009]. Very dark brown color, not much head. Apples, prunes and cardboard in the nose. Similar to some strong lagers! Fruity, sugary, burning alcohol in the flavor - lots of apples, prunes mixed with high ABV. Very alcoholic but same time wild and interesting.

A hazy amber beer with a huge white lazing head. The aroma is quite light with notes of fruit and wood, but also a slight acidity. The flavor is sweet dusty and fruity. Over the top I think - vintage 2001 - sampled 2006.
