Description
The "Grain d'orge" brewery is a family brewery that was founded in 2002 by Benoît and Viviane Johnen. It is located in the village of Hombourg, at the limit of the 3 borders. The production of the brewery has increased year by year since its creation to reach in 2016, 4000Hl of beers.

Its main beers are Brice, Joup, Canaille, Grelotte, The Pom, Triple, Double and Pure d'Aubel. To this are added others, so-called beers on contract. They are tailor-made for small debits or special events.

The combination of ingredients and natural spices makes Grain d'orge beers unique and the layout of a spacious brewing room respecting the standards imposed by the FASFC guarantees their quality. In addition, a banquet hall has been fitted upstairs. This is available for rent but also serves to welcome groups who visit the brewery in order to end pleasantly with a tasting.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Hazy brown with a lasting beige head. Too much fizz. Bit metallic up front, then malt, brown sugar, and a hint of wood and dark fruit. There's a slightly off note like stale marzipan in the mildly drying finish. It's fairly simple, and the fizz and metals give it an industrial hint. A sub-par dubbel which is a slightly disappointing way to tick off my final Belgian region.
