Jean Brasse
Microbrewery in Rixensart, Walloon Brabant, Belgium 🇧🇪
All of our beers contain purely natural ingredients, such as water, special malts, hops and high-quality yeasts. There are no colourings or other additives.
The beer is refermented in the bottle in a warm chamber, enabling bubbles to develop naturally.
Our beers are brewed in the Belgian tradition, involving stages of fermentation at different temperatures in order to extract the maximum quantity of natural sugars from the malts, without adding any sugar.
When I was living in Buenos Aires, in Argentina, I launched a range of craft beers quite similar to the new Jean Brasse range.

After returning to Belgium, I enthusiastically refined my recipes, and it gives me great pleasure to share the results with you, which I hope you will be tempted to experience at first hand.

Rusty-cream head, stable, over clear dark foxy-red beer. End of bottle yields the yeast. Bready, leafy, undergrowth, caramel, parsley. Sweet aromas. Mild sweet flavour, lots of caramel, sweet bread. Finish has a light acidity paired to an equally slight leafy bitterness. Very light stickyness, mild carbonation. Hyper-classical amber Märzen. Thanks to B & T!
