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.

330 ml bottle. Pale, dim body with a small, dense head. Aroma is fruity, yeasty and spicy dominated by coriander. Flavor is refreshing, fruity, sweet, sourish and quite typical. OK, nothing extraordinary.

Bottled. Slightly hazy golden colour with mediumsized white creamy head. Aroma is fruits, caramelmalts, mild spices and some yeast. Alcohol gives a quite glueish stinging note once it warms up a bit. Flavour is sweet sugary fruits along with some spices, yeast and mild earth. Overall quite sweet, and alcohol also shows a bit.
