About
The firm was founded in June 2004 by Jocelyne Duchesne and Daniel Lessire. Daniel first completed a three-month internship with Eddy Pourtois of Brasserie Sainte-Hélène before starting his own brewery built with second-hand equipment. Production increased from 100 hl/year to 300 hl/year in 2009. 47% of the beers are exported abroad. In 2011, they moved to a larger location in Breuvanne, where a tasting room was also provided in addition to the brewery.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 07/2026. Dégustée au gîte à l’hôtel du Gastronome à Paliseul.
Dorée/pâle, col crémeux blanc.
Arôme sur un bouquet houblonné plaisant entre noble belge mais avec un soupçon de notes un pouvant rappeler un côté américain - fleuri, fruité léger et une belle base de malts en appui qui arrive en rétro-nasal.
Palais est houblonné avec un caractère fruité tirant sur les agrumes / citronné, finement herbacé/terreux avec une sensation d'infusion de cône de houblon. Malts pâle et carapils avec un côté belge mais rehaussé par ce côté plus IPA.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a murky amber colour with a medium sized creamy off white head. Nice lacing on the glass. Aromas of ripe stoney fruits, ripe oranges, orange zest and some nuts. Taste is more notes of oranges, apricots, marmalade, hints of nuts, a touch of caramel and a citrusy orange pith hoppyness on the sweetish finish. Medium body with average carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. I’m not sure if this should be classed as a Triple or an IPA but this is the best beer yet that i have tried from this very good brewery. This really is an excellent beer!

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a deep amber with a reddish hue and a medium sized soapy looking off white head. Aromas of red fruits, berries, toffee, caramel and brown bread. Taste has dry dark fruits, more red berries, caramel and toasty brown bread with added notes of citrus orange, some ginger and a touch of brown sugar on a slightly sweetish finish. Thin to medium body with fairly low carbonation. Nice drink which seems to fit in nicely with this festive Christmas time of year.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours an hazy amber colour with a medium sized foamy off white head. Aroma is a mixture of ripe stoney, citrus and tropical fruits. Taste is pretty much the same mixture of these fruity notes with lots of peppery spice and a citrus rind hoppy bitterness on the finish. Thinnish body with average carbonation. Nice thirst quenching beer with a good hoppy bite to it.

Cette Poivrote est sauvée par le poivre intégré à la recette qui donne du caractère et du relief à une base qui est relativement insipide. Il aurait tout de même été plus sympathique qu'un poivre subtil vienne réhausser une bière complexe. Le visuel est sur un blond orangé voilé avec une fine effervescence moyennement soutenue. Le nez est plutôt intéressant sur une alliance poivre, girofle, thym, pain et abricot. En bouche, c'est beaucoup plus pauvre avec un poivre bien présent mais qui est là uniquement pour pallier une bière pauvre et manquant de caractère. L'attaque est dans un premier temps mollassonne et sur des arômes simples (caramel, pain) avant que le poivre bien présent. La deuxième bouche est plus homogène avec un peu plus de tension aromatique mais avec un alcool à 7% mollasson. Ce dernier se fait un peu plus ressentir en arrière-bouche néanmoins. La corpulence est très moyenne et la longueur décevante. La base mériterait d'être retravaillée.
