Description
Hedonis Ambachtsbier werd vanuit een passie opgericht in 2015. Hedonis verwijst naar de term Hedonisme, de filosofische leer waarbij streven naar genot het hoogste goed is. Ambachstbier verwijst naars de Engelse tem “craft beer”, een explosieve stroming van experimentele bieren. Het doel van Hedonis Ambachtsbier is de consument intens te laten genieten van innovatieve bieren gebrouwen met respect voor de Belgische biertraditie.

Wij staan zelf in voor het volledige proces van het bedenken van de recepturen tot het uitleveren van de bieren. We willen de grondstoffen, eindproducten en de consument met de grootste zorg behandelen en streven naar de beste kwaliteit en service. Om onze consumenten correct te kunnen informeren vindt u op alle etiketten de brouwlocatie en de brouwtechnische gegevens terug.

Hedonis Ambachtsbier brouwt met zin voor verandering en respect voor traditie!

In 2022, we decided to join forces with Siphon Brewing and start a new brewing site in Michelbeke, in the heart of the Flemish Ardennes.

Probably the most ambitious beer so far produced by the Hedonis crew, a coffee stout aged on wooden barrels for two years. Alas a very violent gusher, quite a lot of the content was lost to the sink upon opening. Medium thick, pale yellowish beige, mousy, in all quite stable head on a jet black beer. Aroma of mouldy hazelnut shells, beef stock cubes, whisky, soaking wet fondant chocolate bars, old coffee filters, sweat, oak wood, walnut cheese, moist peat, nutmeg, raw red cabbage, blackberries, damp forest floor. Estery onset, ripe blackberries, pear and fig, sweetish and sourish with medium carbonation; full, slightly oily mouthfeel. Walnutty, bitter-chocolatey and brown-bready maltiness with a caramelly core, leading to a softly woody finish with a herbal hop bitter note, earthy yeastiness and slight moist peat, something beef stock-like and warming whisky-like alcohol; the coffee, however, has clearly faded to a large extent during the time in the barrel, but the roasted malts do add welcoming ‘end bitterness’. Seems a tad infected – barrel ageing often bears a certain risk that this happens – so a tad flawed, to be honest; still, what got into my glass was an interesting, complex beer nonetheless, decent enough in its base, like a distinct version of Kiss My Stout. My rating therefore does not take the gushing into account too much.
