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.

17/III/2012 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ "summer house" in the Ardens - BB: VII/12 (2012-241)

Clear blond beer, creamy white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: yeasty touch, bready, sweet malts, shortbread or biscuits, bit dirty, sewer smell. MF: soft carbon, light to medium body. Taste: some citrus, grains, little malty, slightly bitter and spicy, but not much. Aftertaste: citrus, little bitter. Pretty plain and straightforward. Wasn't much of a "Plezir" (pleasure) to drink this. Marketing guys: please die.
