Description
La Brasserie des Géants a été créée en 1997 par deux ingénieurs, Pierre et Vinciane Delcoigne, au Castel d’Irchonwelz, datant du douzième siècle. Le premier brassin a été mis en vente en 2000.

La Brasserie Ellezelloise a été fondée par Philippe Gérard en 1993 et produit la gamme Quitine et Hercule. La salle de brassage y permet deux à trois brassins de 15 hl par jour.

Née du mariage en 2006 de la Brasserie des Géants et de la Brasserie Ellezelloise, la Brasserie des Légendes s’inspire du folklore riche de nos régions: la Ducasse d’Ath avec son cortège des Géants et le Sabbat des Sorcières d’Ellezelles.

Puis en 2019, la Brasserie des Légendes reprend les activités de la Distillerie de Biercée.

[Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival] Cloudy amber, creamy head. There’s soft malt, caramelized sugar and curacao. It’s fruity and medium bodied and rather sweet. Enjoyable.

Cloudy amber. Spicy, dusty, yeasty nose. Yeasty, lightly peachy, peary aroma. Hints of caramel. Chewy yeast, sweet caramel malt and dry grassy hops. Light dust. Nice one. I must have found it on a good day, and I’m okay with that.

Unclear orange amber with fine white head. Aroma of sweet malts/spices & fruit. Some dark fruits in here like plums/raisins. Filling texture. Medium to lively carbonation. Pleasant bitter lasting finish. Im a fool for these Ellezelloise brews! Great!

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours almost clear and orangey golden with a handsome, frothy "shaving foam" head with excellent retention. The aroma is almost entirely yeast - with a hint of fruit. The body is medium, very yeasty and unfortunately also with a lot of diacety. Dry finish. 220706

Bottled (1995 vintage). Hazy dark brown colour with big white head. Aroma of plum and raisins as well as a weak sting of alcohol. Flavour is smooth and balanced, plum yeast some hops. A bit papery mouthfeel. Alcohol not at all in the flavour. A bit mouly and grassy in the aftertaste. Wellaged.
