Description
Op 1 februari 2007 openden Bart Devillé en Ann Heremans café ‘Den Herberg’. Aanvankelijk was het echter niet de bedoeling een café uit te baten. Dit idee is langzaamaan ontstaan. We kochten het gebouw in 2000 aan om er een brouwerij in op te starten. Stilaan groeide het idee om er onze ambachtelijk gebrouwen bieren ook zelf te verkopen. Ruimte was er voldoende en mits enige grondige aanpassingswerken was het café nog voor de brouwerij af. Één jaar na de opening van het café was ook de brouwerij klaar voor productie.

Got a 75 cl. bottle for free from DHL as a goodbye gift. THX! Cool service. Hazy golden, with a creamy white head. Soft peaches, fruity, light enjoyable sweet spices, touch esters on the nose. Bitter overripe peaches, lightly earthy, zest, old lemon peel, lingering BE hop bitterness in the back, esters, tad basement but as part of profile & not age. Airy light stuff with firm carbonation. Very enjoyable.
