Brouwerij Palm
Commercial Brewery
in Steenhuffel,
Flemish Brabant,
Belgium 🇧🇪
Owned by
Bavaria Brouwerij (Swinkels Family Brewers)
Associated Venue: Palm Brewery
Established in 1706
Arthur kick-started the brewery’s industrial development in order to sell his beers far beyond the borders of the municipality. He also created his own “Spéciale Belge” brew. In 1929, Arthur Van Roy gave his “Spéciale Belge” the brand name “Spéciale PALM”. The brewery continued to grow before and after the second World War.
In 2014 Palm Breweries is renamed Palm Belgian Craft Brewers. A new micro-brewery is opened in order to experiment with new combinations of herbs, spices, hops, fruit and wood, and is named in honour of De Hoorn. At 10 hl, the capacity of the micro-brewery is almost exactly the same as that of the village brewery of days gone by.
On 9 May 2016, the Dutch brewery Bavaria N.V. (Swinkels Family Brewers) bought a majority stake in the company. Bavaria initially bought 60% of the shares and will expand this to 100% in 2021.

250ml bottle. Clear, dark amber colour with small to average, creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Toasty, minimally bready, malty aroma, floral overtones, hints of rye crisp bread, corn flakes, a touch of petals. Taste is moderately bitter, floral-grassy and minimally citrusy fruity hoppy, minimally toasty, bready malty basis with a touch of corn flakes and rye crisp bread. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Quite some tolerable flavours, but simple and monotonous - okay for what it is.
