Description
An independent, family-run brewery for over 110 years. True Belgian craftsmanship. That's Haacht Brewery.

On June 14, 1898 Eugène De Ro brewed his first top fermentation beer. Four years later he also started brewing bottom fermentation beer. His beers were such a hit that ‘Haecht’s Dairy Company and Brewery’ became one of the best Belgian breweries in 1913. In the fifties and sities there were numerous small takeovers and the Haacht Brewery beers were being distributed across the entire country. Thanks to the take-overs of breweries in the south of the Netherlands and northern France, Haacht Brewery set foot ashore in neighboring countries. In 1990, Haacht Brewery started the complete replacement of its production apparatus; the whole process was completed around 2015. Today, Haacht Brewery is a state-of-the-art brewery, inspired by its history and at the same time more than ready for the future.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Belgian yeast aroma with malt, spicy and herbal notes, hint of dried fruit and candy sugar. Moderate sweet with a light bitterness, medium body. Alright.

Keg draught at Tønne, Leicester. Deep and slightly dark red, clear with a small ring of white head. Disappointingly light cherry aroma, a little metallic. Sweet taste, more cherry here, a little resinous. Very light body with heavy carbonation. I didn't expect all that much but it exceeded basic expectations. A decent choice for a light fruit beer.

33cl Fles van ONP5. Donkergouden kleur, witte kraag. Ruikt wat chemisch, Belgische fruitige namaak-esters, perzik, frambozenlimonade, hint van hondenbrokken, scherp bittertje. Lichte body. Zeer matig dit.

Alcool et fruits noirs sous forme de raisins secs et de pruneaux avec un apport léger de chocolat et de mélasse font foi d’un olfactif bien malté.
Une mousse énorme, pétillante, mais qui demeure rocailleuse demeure de longues minutes sur le liquide brun aux reflets orangés et plutôt limpide.
L’entrée de bouche se veut légèrement alcoolisée, piquante et poivrée.
La base maltée est caramélisée avec esters de fruits rouges et noirs.
Notes de cerises, de pruneaux de raisins secs.
La forte carbonatation atténue la rondeur et fait paraitre les saveurs plus effacées.
Les houblons terreux et épicés ne s’expriment que partiellement.
Une Dubbel monastique correcte sans qu’elle ne soit comparable aux grands exemples Belges traditionnels.
Appréciée !

Draught Small, dense cream head over opaque deep chestnut beer. Fresh malts' galore, some - if not much - coloured, parsley, bread. Lots of malt, some dark sugars, ever so slight sourish tang. Finish is sweeter, fruitier, some esters. Light body, sticky. Light carbonation. Better than remembered, used to be a sickly-sweet concoction decennia ago.
