About
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.

Servida en tulipa, color rubí oscuro, espuma beige claro de buena retención. En nariz recuerdos de malta y caramelo. En boca entra con una ligera pugna entre notas levemente amargas y dulces, cuerpo medio, notas de pan negro, caramelo, bayas, frutos negros...Final largo, de nuevo con esa curiosa pugna entre lo ligeramente amargo y levemente dulce, y seco. No esta mal

0.25l bottle thanks to Lore. Clear red body with a small pink head. Cherry syrup with some tutti-frutti and a bit of bready malts. Sweet yet refreshing cherry beer. Not so complicated, but OK.

On tap at Villa Gerard, 7 't Zand, Brugge on 12th June 2023. Clean and clear golden body, snow white head; looked good in the afternoon sunshine. Malty, fruity, boozy and herbal; good for a headache I reckon.
