Description
De brouwerij is gevestigd in de historische Hoeve Nicolaï waar zich al vanaf 1642 een kleinschalige brouwerij bevond. De huidige gebouwen vormen een authentiek industrieel monument anno 1743 in het hart van het streekdorpje Wilderen. In 2007 kochten Mike Janssen en Roniek Van Bree dit complex en restaureerden de, sterk in verval geraakte, gebouwen. Een hedendaagse brouwerij en distilleerderij, een imposante alcoholstokerij uit 1890 en een monumentale Haspengouwse vakwerkhoeve maken tegenwoordig deel uit van dit unieke complex waar sinds augustus 2011 bieren en destillaten worden geproduceerd.

330 ml bottle. Pours a dark brown with very slight head. Aromas of dark fruit, oak, orange peel, subtle whiskey, and sharp toasted malts. Flavors follow same with some additional candi sugar, although finish is nice and dry. Very good.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is sweet cherry, sugar, syrup, with some tart cherry. Flavour is mildly tart and very sugary sweet, enough to give me a toothache. Body is medium. Predictably way too sweet.

Bottle from a supermarket. Sweet brown malts with candy sugar, caramel, Belgian yeast, spicy notes, dried fruits, raisins. A hint of whisky infusion. Sweet flavour with a light bitterness, long sweet yeasty finish. Not bad, but I expected to taste more of the whisky.
