Description
De brouwerij is begonnen als stichting Breugems Brouwerij, en werd opgericht in 2007 door Patrick Breugem en Court-Jan van Beek. Hun voornemen was om een "sociale brouwerij" te openen, waarbij mensen met een beperking aan werk werden geholpen. In 2010 werd de brouwinstallatie geplaatst en kon het brouwen beginnen. In 2013 ging de brouwerij failliet. Na een doorstart in datzelfde jaar ging de brouwerij verder als brouwerijhuurder onder de naam Brouwerij Breugem. Brouwerij Breugem brouwt zijn bieren bij Brouwerij Hoop aan de Lagedijk in Zaandijk.
In April/May 2021 Brouwerij Breugem ended its relationship with Brouwerij Hoop and moved to a new location back in Zaandam. A re-branding was implemented in October 2021, and a number of beers were given new names. Breugem Brewery will also continue as Breugem Bier. For the past few years, Breugem has been a client brewer at Brouwerij Jopen in Haarlem.
In 2023, Brouwerij De Prael Amsterdam Houthavens was taken over, making the dream of having its own brewery and tasting room come true. Part of the production continues to be brewed at Jopen Bier.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 30.11.2042) im 2026-05 getrunken. Dieses dunkelbraune Ale kommt klassisch für den Stil malzig und leicht karamelig rüber. Doch da ist eine feine Note die ich nicht mag. Ich bin nicht sicher ob ein bitteres Kräuteraroma ist oder sogar eine Gummi-Fehlnote. Es ist trinkbar, aber ich brauche dieses Bier nicht noch mal im Glas.

330ml bottle in Café Ome Jan, in Volendam, Netherlands. Pours a pitch black color with a small beige head and good retention. Nice roasted malt aroma. The taste follows the nose: Nice roasted malt flavor with a very light molasses finish. Slightly sweet. The 8.1% ABV is pretty much invisible. Appropriately heavy body. Low carbonation. Low bitterness.

Taste is bitter hoppy, slightly grainy, pale malty with very low residual sweetness, slightly alcoholic, minimally phenolic, a touch of muesli; slightly warming, alcoholic finish.

Disharmonious, unbalanced, alcoholic, fermented muesli - hardly palatable.
