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.

Not as Kristall-clear as expected for the style - so a little hazy, light golden, with a white bubbly cap, good retention and some nice creamy-foamy lace. Cloves are present in the nose to give it some spiciness with some banana notes from the wheat and sweet yeast. The taste is milder, but the cloves are also there. The wheat is light, but refreshing. Crisp mouthfeel. Some hints of metal, but not enough to deter from liking this one.

Pours a hazy amber colour with a light beige head, decent stay and some nice lacing. Caramel malt nose with maybe a little bit of butterscotch (diacetyl), but nothing to kill this. The taste is a nice balance between the caramel malts and the grassy hops. Not too hoppy, but good for a pale ale. Crisp mouthfeel with a little dryness in the end. This is actually not bad at all coming from this brewery, and for the style.

Pours a clean light-golden colour with a nice frothy cap, average lasting with minimal lacing. Something reminds me of a pils for the aromas with some cereal grain and the hops that seem a little a little fake, but not too bad. Crisp mouthfeel with the cereal grain taste and fake hops. Goes down pretty easily and the hops are not that bad to kill this. An easy refreshing lager.

Nice foamy head, okay reddish-brown body with some carbonation. Aroma of cheap wood, shreddies cereal, dried cardboard. Okay cloying flavour of sugary malts, molasses, sweet syrup. Wet finish. Not exactly exciting, an oily sweet beer that needs some work.

Modest head, foggy orange body, some carbonation. Leather shoe aroma; leather beer shoe aroma. Leathery aroma like I’m back in those Paris nightclubs in the basement with the swing band, booze sloshing around, lingering poignancy of a time long past. Yeah - 2010. Few remember it. Also some coriander on the nose. Flavour is a muddy floral mess with those spicy notes, malt, some sweet lemon rinds in the mix but all a bit odd. Medium finish. A few cylinders are firing right on this one but the whole engine is stalling. Would do well for a big whiteboard meeting of "what did we do wrong and where can we go from here" kinda thing, cuz it has potential.
