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.

Amber colour. Nice aroma, lots of malt coming through. Flavour is well balanced with soft malty taste at first before the hops come through leaving a nice dry finish.

33cl bottle from Dranken Geers, deep amber colour clear, thin off white head. Creamy estery aroma. Lots of malt in the mouth. Little bit musty. Not all that good to be honest. Too thin, too musty on the malts.

(25cl bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a thick and slowly lacing foamy white head. Light-sweet and sour doughy malty nose with faint grainy and grassy, slightly metallic hoppy notes. Light-bitter flavour, rather light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Soft pale malt character, slightly waxy taste with shy hints of grainy notes and grassy hoppy notes, accompanied by a nasty touch of metal. Better rely on Lagers from Bohemia, Austria or the south of Germany (24.II.09).
