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.

clear golden colour, huge, not too dense, though still very long lastong white head; aroma and taste of a typical Belgian blond ale with grainy-bready, lemongrassy-lemony, floral and yeasty notes; correct one, though nothing really extraordinary

dark brown colour with ruby notes, huge dense beige head, which lasts for several minutes; aroma of prune, dried sour cherry soaked into alcohol, dark chocolate and burnt sugary notes; taste is similar to the aroma with some toasted rye bread (crusty) notes; considerably underrated great dubbel
