Description
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.

Aroma has rosebuds and malt. Sweetish, malty and a bit of sourness. Warming sensation of alcohol, red berries. Lots of alcohol and fruit, but the flavor is OK. Bitter aftertaste. Re-rate: rating stays the same, but I noticed pear and raisin. Maybe this bottle was younger, the taste was very sweet and sugary.

Big frothy head. Gold orange color, cloudy. Just a hint of citrus, some hops and some yeast both in aroma and flavor. Orange with just a bit of caramel. Dusty and an upcoming winey flavor.

Orange aroma with a hint of mustard. Somewhat bitter flavor with some caramel and orange. Dusty with just a bit of tartness. Not the best Malheur beer.

Blonde, big foamy head. Malt, citrus and poire Wiliams in the aroma. Alcohol, malt and a hint of citrus in the flavor. Pretty well balanced, in spite of the huge alcohol character.

75cl bottle from Carrefour, shared with mom, dad & Anke - cheers to our new job! Pours hazy yellow with a lasting, thick, foamy, white head. Aroma of lemon zest, young mandarin, grass, apple & banana peel, hay, vanilla, white grapes, yeast, cheese. Taste is medium fruity sweet, notes of peach, apple, some orange & 'estery' banana, but all in a refined (and not overripe) manner, sourish lemony undertone, supportive yeasty & bready edges on which bitter accents of grass, hay, grapes lead the way to a dry, grassy-floral hoppy finish where yellow fruit & yeast linger, as well as a firm but still elegant dash of warming champagne-like alcohol. Medium to full body, slick-creamy texture, lively carbonation. Excellent champagne beer, I prefer this over DeuS and frankly, most of the Brut IPAs I've had up until now.
