About
Traditionally brewed local beer.
A beer that makes every Flemish person proud !

The Brouwerij van Vlaanderen was founded in 2002 to celebrate 700 years of the Battle of the Golden Spurs. Initially, in 2002, the beer was commissioned at De Proefbrouwerij in Hijfte, but after a year production was transferred to the Van Steenberge brewery in Ertvelde. In 2016, the brand was transferred to a company in Wielsbeke.

Bottle Pale, golden body. Frothy, spritzy off-white head which collapses immediately. I think the head from Coke lasts longer. A lot of bubbles rising up. Shunky (=dish water funky), citrus aroma. Moderately bitter, citric flavour with some annoying yeasty flavour; quite disgusting: not totally bad, but some disappealing touch.

Bottle: Poured a golden carbonated with large white lacing head. The aroma is sour citrus with wine like hints. Taste was very sour perfume with some fruit acidicness, aftertaste has a bit of malt and metal. This may have been an infected bottle!

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a hazy amber with a beige head. Somewhat caramelish nose with a fruity tartness. Medium-bodied with some burned caramel and some fruit. There’s an underlying tartness while the bitterness is very discreet. 250707

Big white coarse head shrinks quickly. Hazy orange body with strong carbonation. Deep, sweetish, ripe fruit aroma with hoppy notes, faintly metallic, with touches of wild berries. Thin, and faintly harsh, because of the carbonation. Acidic citric taste of wild berries and metal with notes of honey; faintly milky. Bitter, papery aftertaste, but kind of sweetish, too. The two don’t mix well. Not as bad as it sounds, but not a typical Belgian, and not too pleasant. (0.33l bottle.)

Bottle, 8.5%. Slightly vinous aroma with a little rough hop notes. Clear yellow colour, stable white head. Perfumy, vinous flavour, some pepper and quite phenolic. Reminds me a little of a European Strong Lager. Perfumy and yeasty finish. High carbonation.
