About
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.

Tap at Gar Eden. Good stuff, smells boozy, light spice, full on belgian yeasty. Nice fruitiness. Very nice taste and easy drinking. Bit like bon voeux but much lighter. Bubblegum.

High carbonation. Smells weirdly vinous and yogurty. Taste is pretty weird too, something caramelly and something lightly acidic. Licorice, dusty, bit of roast, still something yoghurty. Not what I was expecting, but not very unpleasant. Doesn't linger.

8,4% on the label! Beer gushes slightly and produces an enormous head. Very dark ruby brown color. Cherry aroma that promises a lot of sourness, but that is not the case. Roasted malt flavor, earthy, some cherry. A slight tartness. Mustard and grapes. A very unusual beer, some odd mix between a kriek and a stout. Complex and likeable.

Vanilla aroma. Some hopbitterness in the flavor. Apple and vanilla. Some alcohol, in spite of its modest ABV. Just a bit of yeast and orange. Good lacing. Not bad, but not very special.

Pink color, hazy. Strong blackcurrant aroma. Yeasty, blackcurrant flavor, not as strong as the aroma. Rather onedimensional beer.

A bit hazy. Pepper and mango aroma with orange, carrots and rosebuds. A herbal hoppy flavor, tart at first, then a pepperiness comes up, followed by (again) a citric tartness. Thin for the fairly high alcohol content. A complex beer, the quality is apparent. Long hoppy finish.

Flowery, sugary aroma. Hoppy, very herbal, bitter witbier. Some citric fruitiness. Chalk, caramel and rubber. Not at all the archetypical witbier, but full of flavor and even fairly complex.
