About
A modest jewel in the Luxembourgish brewing world, Brasserie Simon is both a keeper of the soul of good beer and a creative rebel. Rich in its independence, the company emphasizes the quality of its products and customer service to strengthen its Luxembourg roots.
At Brasserie Simon, we take the time: our fermentation process is still separated into two stages as we did always: a main fermentation in open vats which is followed by maturation in closed vats. A small craft brewery since 1824, Brasserie Simon is the only brewery in Luxembourg to have the latest generation open fermentation tanks guaranteeing the taste of real beers from the past.

Bottle. Golden red amber. Astringent caramel aroma (if that's possible) with a tinge of sourness. Citrus flavor, a bit astringent bitterness, water minerals maybe?

Bottle. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is peach, citrusy, a bit caramel. Taste is bready, citrusy, yeasty. Silky mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Alright.

Huge dense yellowish head, (utterly stable, nearly kroepoek-like), over lazily carbonated amberish-shot golden beer. Very aromatic, perfumey nose with rosewater, marzipan, almonds, frangipane, toast, thai herbs. Bitter, bit metallic, faint resin, faint rosewater. Lot less amondy; bit oxydized however. Autumn leaves; long lasting bitterness. Very stable head gives a constant feel, but more solid than creaminess. Bit hopoily, mild carbonation. Nowhere bad. Perfume from the nose is slightly exaggerated, but doesn't prolong itself into the mouth.

Organic triple brewed in Luxemburg, bottle from an organic food store in Ghent. Egg-white, frothy, medium thick, irregularly edged, quickly thinning and eventually all but dissolving head over a misty peach blonde beer with vague ochre-ish tinge and fierce, large-bubbled sparkling. Aroma of ripe banana, peach, minerals (pumice, gypsum), coriander seed, brown soap, raw potato, unripe pear, old bread and a background whiff of DMS. Sweet onset, pineapple ester mixed with banana and red apple accents, lively and initially rather coarse carbonation, sweetish-bready malt body with grainy-cereally edges and a thin layer of honeyish, residual sugariness before a classically ‘dull’ and dusty coriander spiciness sets in, all in all behaving quite well though and not overpowering a late, earthy and grassy hop bitter note; some ‘jenever’-like alcohol wryly clings to the root of the tongue. Not a bad triple per se, but needless to say, this beer adds absolutely nothing to the already overexposed Belgian triple style, this is about as stereotypical as it gets.

Fancy metal bottle, thanks to co-worker. Smells and tastes like random drinkable pale lager - malt, grains, cardboard, some hop extract. Overall: drinkable.

19th Nov 2018. Monthly Share Group meeting in Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury, only three of us this time. Thanks Mat for this 33cl bottle. Poured a hazy golden colour, white head. Plenty of hop action here in this semi-bitter IPA, light citrus leanings throughout. One of the better beers I have had from Luxembourg.
