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.

En lisant les ingrédients de cette Super 8 Flandrien, j'avoue avoir eu peur : Sirop de glucose, sucre, sirop de sucre inverti maïs, extrait naturel (de quoi?), antioxydant (acide ascorbique). Cela ne met pas réellement en soif. Le visuel est sur un joli blond doré limpide avec une fine effervescence et une mousse blanche nappant la surface. En bouche, cela n'est pas terrible comme je m'y attendais, tant par les arômes que par l'équilibre. Le nez est sur une alliance céréales, alcool et pomme de terre avec une pointe de coriandre pas exceptionnelle. A la dégustation, une acidité peu appréciable apparaît sur les mêmes aromes qu'au nez. La corpulence est plutôt bonne avec un alcool qui fait plus que son titrage (6,4 %). Faire une bonne bière avec tant de cochonneries aurait été incroyable. Il n'y a pas eu de miracle.

Bottle from HoTM. It pours clear deep amber with a frothy white cap. The aroma is sweet, sticky, sappy, piney, resinous, toffee, caramel and brown bread. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, sappy, oily, resinous, pine, peppery spice, caramel/toffee, dried florals, touch of waxy peel and alcohol presence with a dry finish. Medium body, moderate foamy carbonation and oily mouth feel. Quite old school and malt laden. Drinks easy enough. Fair.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
