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.

On tap at the source. Pour a deep red, with a small pink head. Aroma is straight up cherry jolly ranchers. Nothing else. Just candy. Mouth feel is thin, carb is almost flat. Finish is slightly tart, and semi sweet. This is just juice.

Pours a handsome amber with a small head. Sweet aroma of bread, malts, red fruits, a slight caramel. Alcohol is hidden well. A decent beer.

Pours a clear deep golden with an off-white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, sugar, some spicy notes. Flavour is sweet with a little alcohol noticeable. Not my kind of Belgian ale.

Almost clear golden colour with a big white head. Aroma of malts, yeast, fruits and spices (there’s that coriander again). Flavour is moderate yeasty, fruity sweetness. Rather typical, enjoyable enough Belgian Blonde.
