Description
La brasserie Belgh Brasse a été fondée en 1999 à Amos, en Abitibi, par Jean-Louis Marcoux, un brasseur originaire de Belgique.
L'entreprise se spécialisait dans la fabrication et l'embouteillage de bières de haute qualité, inspirées des styles belges, comme la bière 8 et les bières de la gamme Mons.
En 2007, l'entreprise a été achetée par le Groupe Geloso.
Un incendie a ravagé l'usine de Belgh Brasse à Amos en 2017. En 2019, après la démolition de l'usine, les activités ont été relocalisées à Laval, sur les sites du Groupe Geloso.
Belgh Brasse est maintenant une marque de commerce du Groupe Geloso.

opalescent pale golden colour, moderate sized dense white head; aroma of fruity-pear peel-like, moderate citrusy, grassy, some buttery, piney and caramel notes; well balanced bittersweet taste with caramel, some fruity and buttery notes; nothing really extraordinary, but enjoyable, for sure

355ml that pours a very slight hazed, bright, light-golden colour with a white cap leaving a foamy ring. Aromas of Wit yeast, some straw malt base and fresh grassy hops with a tad medicinal notes. This continues into the taste with some mild, building dryness. Some decent spices in here, with hints of orange zest. A decent Witbier, but a little rich to have a few.

Lightly hazed by tiny particles, unfiltered, a big warm-white head that stay quite a long time and leaving a bunch of sticky lacing. Fresh mint-cilantro, herbal aromas with the spices and wheat base. Hints of honey. Some orange notes comes out in the taste, zest and mild juices. Good dryness in the finish with grassiness lingering. Quite a nice, refreshing Witbier with the IPA hop edge.

Golden colour with some tiny particles floating through it, a frothy-creamy white cap, good stay and some nice foamy-soapy lacing. Citrus aromas with lemon zest, some of its sourness, honey and cilantro leaves. The taste shows decent grassiness, but with the straw malts and honey notes, not as bitter. More good spices blending things and the finish is fairly dry. Quite a nice Session ale with some low alcohol notes, but a little more punch with the 4% ABV.

Unfiltered with particles, golden colour with a frothy off-white head, good stay and loads of foamy lacing spots. Grassy, herbal aromas over the caramel malts. The taste continues with some minty notes, refreshing things. A fairly dry finish. A pretty good IPA all-around for such a cheap price.

Lightly hazed, golden colour with nice carbonation, an amber hue, a warm cap that is on the creamy-side, stays quite long, and lacing is good with foamy clouds all over. The smell is kind of off, especially for a NEIPA. Yes, citrus is present, but with caramel sweetness and then, grass that is trying to fight it off. The taste is a touch better, with the caramel base hidden a little better behind the grassiness and orange zest. The mouthfeel is wet, slightly silky with some decent dryness in the end. Nothing horrendous, but a little off. A nice-looking, juicyish, hazy IPA with a little too much caramel malts.

Can: Poured a pale yellow color weizen with a large white foamy head with OK retention and lacing. Aroma of light sweet wheat malt ntes with faint bubblegum notes. Taste is also a mix of faint bubblegum notes with some lightly sweet wheat matl. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Nothing complicated but drinkable weizen.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with some juicy floral undertones but not as dominant as I was expecting. Taste is also a mix of citrusy hops notes with some floral hops undertones with residual sugar notes but flavors are more muddled than I was expecting. Body is pretty full with good carbonation. Lacks balance and focus from what I am expecting for the style.

Pours a very slight unfiltered, light golden colour with a frothy, lightly off-white cap, good stay and some creamy-foamy lacing. Yeasty, lightly sour nose over the sweetness of Belgian Ales. The taste has this weird, kind of sourness, but not as infected. Maybe like sourdough, as bready. Just odd yeast or something. The hops do help the finish with some cereal notes in the background. Yeah, not my thing.

Aromas of molasses over the roasted and caramel malts. Mostly caramel malts in the taste with enough hops to cut most of the sweetness. Mildly dry finish and not too much lingering. Maybe hints of molasses. Alcohol is well-hidden with just a tad warmth. Deeper amber colour with a frothy beige head, average retention and light lace. An easy-drinking strong scotch ale.
