Description
In 1933 Charles Caulier, a miner, left his job and decided to set up as a beer reseller in Bonsecours, a small village in the south of Belgium. In 1980, Roger and Linda Caulier took over the family business and continued progressing.
The warehouses soon became too cramped so they took over the buildings of a former tannery in Péruwelz. The products of the Brewery are still brewed in these buildings today.

In the early 1990s, Roger and Linda decided to market their own beer: a custom-made high fermentation blonde. The Bon Secours was born! These were promising beginnings but they still dreamt of creating their own brewery. A dream which became reality when they bought the machinery from the Deneve brewery in Schepdaal and inaugurated the first brew in 1996!

In 2007, the NV Brasserie Caulier was declared bankrupt. At the beginning of 2008, the activities were transferred to a private limited company of the sons of Roger Caulier, who subsequently adopted the name Brasserie et Distillerie Caulier. As of 2012, Laurent, Bertrand and Vincent joined their parents in the adventure. In order to respond to the growing demand for its products, in 2018 the Brewery began a large multi-annual programme of investments with the goal of tripling its production capacity. The historical Brewing House has been extended, new fermentation and storage tanks have been added, and the bottling line has been modernised.

Swingtop bottle 33cl. @home poured into a teku glass. Intense fruity nose. Opaque brick red to pink colour, good creamy off-white head, half-way lasting. Fruity aroma, blue berries, raspberry, bubble gum, apricot jam, floral hops. faint woody notes. Taste above medium sweet and light bitter, malty, blue berries, raspberry, apricot, plum, woody and earthy notes. Medium body, sticky texture, soft carbonation, semi-dry fruity aftertaste, some complexity (others would say no direction), finishes with bitter notes on the tongue, not your regular fruit beer, very nice.

75 cl-flaska från SB. Korken smäller upp på egen hand fem sekunder efter att metallkapsylen tagits av. Mycket skum, disig/grumlig gyllengul vätska. Snustorr och örtigt och gräsigt besk med en ganska trist lite plåtbit och kartongig besk eftersmak. Känns som att den himlats väl hårt. Saknar kropp, sötma och belgoestrar och jäst. Ok-

Draft @ La Chtite Brigitte Lille. Une premiere de découvrir cette version - apparement reservee pour les ambassadeurs de Paix Dieu.
Doree presentant un leger voile, col leger blanc.
Arome reste sur une base belge solide, petite touche d'esters fruitee avec un apport delicat houblonne en appui restant sur du noble qui rend un bouquet finement epice.
Palais sur une base belge assez classique - touche de pale et pils, le tout a du corps, et cela change la version a 10%. Un peu fruit confit en fin de bouche, le tout rehausse par une amertume plaisante.
