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 Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a hazy mahogany colour with a thinnish soapy looking off white head. Aromas of dry dark fruits, berries, caramel and toasty brown bread. Taste has more of the dark fruits, more caramel and toasty brown bread, some jam and also some nutty notes coming through on the finish. Medium to full body and light spritzy mouthfeel. Nice drink.

On tap at TNT Pub, Trieste. Shared with Ogi. Clear deep amber, small off-white head. Aroma is intense caramel, dried fruit, red fruit, syrup, some toasty notes. Sweet and sticky, strong. Smooth. Dried fruit, brown sugar and toast flavour. Minimal hop bitterness. Warming finish, a bit too sweet and somewhat lacks deeper complexity.

Servida en tulipa, color ámbar oscuro, turbia, corona de espuma blanco hueso bastante bien retenida. En nariz emite notas de malta oscura, caramelo, levadura, ciruela seca, uvas, especias... En boca es afrutada, con marcados matices de malta y caramelo, dulzor medio, final ligeramente amargo, buenas notas de lúpulo bien especiadas. Una cerveza agradable, fácil de beber y disfrutar, rica.

Cette triple, inconstante, ne permet pas de la rendre au niveau des standards. Le visuel est sur une robe blonde parfaitement limpide avec une fine effervescence soutenue et une mousse blanche de 3 mm. Le nez est sur les céréales, le citron, l'orange et le miel. En bouche le miel ressort plus. Toutefois, l'attaque, très légèrement acidulée est simple et manque à la fois de consistance mais également de complexité. La deuxième bouche a un peu plus de caractère, avec un alcool à 8 % qui donne du tempérament et de légères épices (girofle). L'arrière bouche est quant à elle un brin trop acide et le final, peu intéressante fait quasiment penser à une pils. Si la corpulence est moyenne, la longueur est honnête. Très moyen.

Geprobeerd met LiekevdV, SandervL en Kim tijdens een lunch in Durbuy. Het is een helder goudgeel bier met een wit schuim wat snel weg ebt. Het heeft een aroma van mout en hop. De smaak is moutig en zacht zoet.
