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.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 10/02/2025.
Bière issue d’un projet entre chocolatiers belges, cette bouteille fût achetée chez Sigoji à Ixelles.
Couleur dorée/claire, col fin blanc.
Arôme est parfumé léger rappelant un peu une base de blanche belge avec des notes fruitées sur le tropical dont un assez plaisant litchi. Agrumes, floral rappelant les ‘rose buds’ avec un effet chocolaté plus végétal mais le but l’était pas de donner à cette bière un côté sur ce dernier.
Palais est léger malté assez belge, grains malt pils avec ce fini de suite sur les agrumes dont un litchi assez frais qui procure un délicat effet exotique en fin de bouche. Cependant l’effervescence me semble un peu élevée et vient enlever un peu diminuer le caractère général.
