4, Rue de Bertinchamps, Gembloux, 5030, Belgium
Description
The Humblet family was in search of a site to build a new brewery & continue their tradition and long list of beers brewed by their father, Benoit Humblet.
In 2011, they discovered the farm of Bertinchamps, dating back to 1343, situated not far from Gembloux.
Although extremely old and decayed, the farm had stunning character, situated in an environment that equals its prestige. It was time for some rejuvenation and the renovation project began immediately. Almost 2 years of remarkable work and finally in March 2013 the brewing system was installed in the old barns. Ultra modern fermentation tanks of a capacity of 6.000HL, an astonishing contrast of modern technology and the farm dating back more than 7 centuries.

On tap at Gist. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Peppery Belgian yeast with some floral notes on the nose. Tastes like a perfumey apple juice. Very disappointing, not even recognizable as a tripel.

On tap at GIST, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma has some Belgian yeast, light spiciness, and biscuity malt. Flavour is puzzling, with gentle candi sugar, biscuity malt, and some light esters. I don’t see this as a tripel, just as a generic, confused Belgian beer of some sort.

This beer has a really nice color:orange and a lot of small pieces of yeast giving a nice touch. The taste is well balanced, easy to drink. 10.11.2016.
