About
Yvan DE BAETS and Bernard LEBOUCQ meet each other in 2002, during the second edition of the Zinnekparade. Bernard had created the now famous ZINNEBIR for this unique Brussels event. However, it took another five years for BRASSERIE DE LA SENNE to settle effectively in the capital. In the meantime, the brewing activities were continued at friendly breweries. This bohemian existence came to an end on December 22, 2010, the date of the very first 100% Brussels brew!

Small, quite regular snowwhite head over pale yellow beer with a greenish sheen. Spicy nose, wheat, bit weyish. Very slight wheatacidity, again spicey, and probably drier than most wits. Creamy feel, well carbonated to spritzy, wheatslick. Meritorious in the world of corianderboil wits.

On tap at Hops, Crewe. Pours a murky apricot with minimal almost white head and good lacing. There’s continental hops, yeast and lemongrass in the aroma, along with a trace of oranges. In the mouth it starts off somewhere between sharp, bitter and sweet but the bitterness eventually comes to dominate. Flavours of apricot, orange, coriander plus hints of dried fruit. Finish is quite dry. This is quite nice. Not an outstanding Belgian beer, but with some unusual flavours.
