Description
The brewery produces around 8000 hectolitres per year, not only of its own brands of beer, but also of contract-brewed beers.The challenge for the future is a commercial one that will require the development of our key products.More than ever, we wish to emphasize our authenticity, the Belgian craftsmanship, and the character of our beers. We assert our status as traditional brewers. For these reasons, we have invested in the branding of our products, our website and our communication.

'Fruited' version of this brand, made with aromas of blueberries, blackcurrant and unspecified 'red fruits' - I am prepared for the worst. Thick and frothy, plaster-like lacing, off-white, regular, closed and stable head, crystal clear pure orange blonde robe - less 'red' than expected based on its premise and turning misty and deeper amberish with sediment so apparently unfiltered. Aroma of industrial red fruit lemonade, cassis of the worst possible quality, granulated sugar, blueberry-flavoured ice cream, blueberry crumble from the supermarket, cooked cloth, grenadine, dried banana, chewing gum, peanut hint. Sugary sweet onset, sticking to the teeth with very lemonade-like effect, indeed artificial red fruit and cassis aromas dominating, fizzy carb, slender body; thin cereally maltiness under ongoing sugars and 'fake' sweet fruit aromas with lots of bubblegummy effects, the sugary sweetness - like industrial red fruit lemonade - ruling till the end, disturbed only by a bitter note, reminding me more of bitter medicine or something chemical than of hops. This is again one of those 'modern' Walloon sweet fruit beers, with not enough fake fruitiness to add a deep red colour, but more than enough sugar to render it 'unbeery' and - for me - close to undrinkable. Even the craft beer movement proves incapable to extinguish this kind of bland, childish and artificial rubbish in conservative Belgium, apparently.
