Brasserie des Légendes
Commercial Brewery
in Irchonwelz,
Hainaut,
Belgium 🇧🇪
Associated Venue: La Brasserie Ellezelloise
Established in 1993
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.

330ml bottle [courtesy of Claudius - a big thanks to you and your train travel karma!]. Hazy, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with average to huge, firm, frothy, moderately to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, snow white head. Fruity hoppy and mildly funky, yeasty aroma, slightly spicy, pale malty background, notes of lemon, a touch of lemon peel, unspecific fruitiness, a touch of mettwurst as well. Taste is moderately bitter, citrusy fruity hoppy, mildly funky, slightly spicy, pale malty, notes of lemon, some lemon peel, that Mettwurst touch again, underlying hints of salty cracker, no residual sweetness. Watery texture, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Fairly citrusy, nice dirty funky and spicy aspects - enjoyable.

Draft @ Brewdog Brussels. Une édition spéciale pour célébrer les 30 ans de cette bière. Pour l'occasion, Br des Légendes à sélectionner 30 bars pour servir ce brassin spécial. Brassin semblant être un assemblage de deux barriques de Bourbon et Rhum de la même bière.
Couleur dorée, léger pâle, col blanc fin crémeux mais peu tenace.
Arôme est de suite marqué par de fins effluves de barriques - -c'est complexe et m'emmène vers une inspiration quasi lambic mais repris en retrait par une touche douce de vanille, caramel, 'sour', fraicheur au nez.
Palais présente une excellent note de barrique - cela apporte une belle note de fraicheur (issue du rhum) et douceur en fin de bouche venant par le côté vanillé. Note de cuire, groseille à maquereau, abricot aigre léger, physalis.
Fini est sec, finement boisé plus ce côté funk qui demeure tout au long.

Very thick yellowish head, pitting-in over well-carbonated fully hazy yellow beer; shards of lace. Creamy, grapey, perfumey nose, with herbal & spicy notes. Inviting, but all the same it is a bit "easy" aroma, too flat- unidimensional. The very intense carbonation enhances the fresh-herbal flavours. Floral, slightly citrussy and green fruits. Slight fruity sweetness underneath. Light body, refreshing. Not very long-lasting flavours. Not bad at all, but as said, a tad easy, almost industrial.

Bottle at 1900 Art Cafe. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. ABV hidden well. Nice solid roasty base, with a hint of smoke, ashy, tobacco. I do not get much belgiany presence, only a hint. Easy drinking, quite good.
