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.

Servida en tulipa, color dorado ambarino, turbia, buena y cremosa corona de espuma bien conservada. Aroma inequívocamente belga, levadura, malta, pan blanco, cereal, algo de naranja...huele muy bien. En boca no decepciona, buen cuerpo, notas herbales y de cereal, algo de miel, levadura, final largo muy redonda. Buena cerveza, teniendo en cuenta que se vende a un euro la botella en el mercadona podemos decir tranquilamente que tiene una relación calidad precio más que excelente.
