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.

Bottle at De Prael. Almost clear golden. Sweet malts, wort, grassy, soft fruity notes. Medium sweet and less bitter. Medium bodied, low carbonation. Too much like wort for me.

Can, 8.1%. Weak fruity and piney aroma. Cloudy golden colour. Big stable creamy white head. The flavour has paper and overripe fruit. Distinct bitterness and a mild alcohol presence which is pleasant enough. Faint pineapple notes in the finish.

Fles gedeeld met Roelzie. Het is een amberkleurig bier met een volle beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van sinaasappel en kardemom. De smaak is kruidig en warm met een typische kardemom smaak in de afdronk.

Shortlived light-cream head over copperish redbrown beer, almost clear. Cardamom, cookies, bit of camphor, other sweet spices. Cardamom, citruspeel, aniseed, in definitely too high concentrations. Bit of meaty esters too, somewhat pharmaceutical. Sticky, gluey despite not very high density. Medium carbonation. Overspiced, full stop. Txs to B&T for the gift!
