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.

33cl Blik van AH. Mistig gouden kleur, witte kraag. Zepig, lavendel, kunstmatig hoppig, aspartaam, perzik of abrikoos in de smaak, flink zoeter dan verwacht, iets dennen. Lichte body. Nee, geen feest dit.

Keg @ Admiral Benbow. Pours a misty gold, medium white head. Moderately sweet blonde with a very noticeable sweet, honey-like oaky influence.. nice but not sure I could have another glass.

Can 330ml (KCM Länsikeskus)
Hazy orange colour, small steady white head. Aroma was fruityness, pear and wet dog. Light-bodied. Fruityness, light underlying Belgian spiceyness, pear. Easy and kind of meh.

Pours clear blonde, relatively large white head, fairly fast fading. Scent is BE yeast, but not over the top. Banana, malty,... nothing very unique or surprisjng, but also nothing off. Taste is fairly bitter, banana yeasty notes, malty. Seems a bit aged as i taste oxidation (honey), but it still had almost a year to go before BBD. Not great, not terrible.
