Description
Sixth generation headstrong Belgian true craft and traditional brewery, established in the early 1800's and on the same exact location were we are still today since 1859! Call us stubborn. But we are still a family with strong values. We still brew all our beers ourselves. We still use the original copper kettles. And we can guarantee our quality for at least another 150 years! We're headstrong. True craft brewers. And we're from Belgium!! These beers were not made in someone's garage as a hobby. For six generations, brewing is our family's passion. We do not follow hypes. We stay true to the craft. Without compromises on quality. And in this respect, you can call us stubborn.

Pour is a murky brown with a large tan head. Aroma is caramel malt with some candi sugar sweetness. Flavor is brown sugar toasted malt. Finish is a minor hop and dark fruit. Pretty good but a bit thin for this style.

Pour is a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma is perfume hops with a little caramel malt. Flavor is more flower-like hops with a caramel malt backbone. It's sweet but not over the top. Finish is more of the caramel malt on the tongue. Unique Belgian blonde with the caramel notes.
