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.

Pale cyclamen, clear beer with a medium, pink head. Faint fruity nose. Rainwater; hint of sage. Sweet and fruity - somewhere halfway artificial and watered fruitjuice. I think the aspartame (thought that was forbidden?) gives the artificial flavour. A flavour like some dry herb - not a kitchen one, more like 'healing' herbs. Light, spritzy, good carbonation. A bit sticky all the same. This beer belongs to a time, not that long ago, when the name craftbeer didn't exist yet, and tradition beers were dying. We can do better now, no?

16/V/25 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared with Thirstybird @ home, BB: X/2023, N°3324/6276 (2025-478)
Little cloudy yellow to orange blond beer, small creamy white head, a little stable, a bit adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: very oxidized, honey, floral, sweet impression, a bit dusty, woody, some red wine notes. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice, pretty sourish, peaches and apricots, a bitter touch, floral, some tannins. Aftertaste: more woody, dry, some citrus, red wine, nice, funky touch, good stuff!

Bottle. Has a malty, sweet taste not much hops. Aroma is that of raisins or some other dried fruit. Dark amber color. I like this beer. Really good for a holiday beer.

Bottle from the LCBO. Hazy yellow pour, with a large white head. Aroma is bright, citrus zest, light stone fruit, but quite zesty. Crisp mouth feel, clean and light, with a vibrant carb. Bitterness is low to medium. Finish is acidic, fruity, nectarine, and grapefruit.

Big roasty aroma, soy, licroice, piney hops. solid mouthfeel, and carbonation. Finish was quite bitter, but very satisfying. Big notes of burnt malt, espresso, and roasted/burnt malts. great stout.
