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.

Pours clear, blonde with an amber hue. Medium sized, stable white head. Scent is brett, bit malty. Medium intense. Taste is full, brett-heavy, bready. mild amber malts, has a sharp edge to it, and a smokey subtone even. Quite decent, but not the most balanced nor complex.

Bottled 330ml (Gastropub Tuulensuu). A cloudy golden color and small white head. Light fruity aroma. Light-bodied. Pale malts, bubblegummy fruityness in the flavour. Light Belgian spicey yeastyness. Easy but ok.
