Description
De brouwerij werd opgericht in 1995 door Johan Brandt en was tot 2008 gelegen in het West-Vlaamse Assebroek, een deelgemeente van de stad Brugge. Voornamelijk omwille van het gebrek aan de nodige ruimte voor uitbreiding (de brouwcapaciteit bleef beperkt tot 320 liter per brouwsel), verhuisde de brouwerij in 2009 naar Mater, een deelgemeente van Oudenaarde. Deze verhuis bracht ook de officiële naamsverandering van De Regenboog naar Smisje met zich mee. In 2010 werd beslist alle bestaande bieren behalve het Kerstbier te doen verdwijnen uit het assortiment en het nieuwe bier Smiske te lanceren. De oudere Smisje-bieren werden echter zo gewaardeerd dat een aantal mensen een Facebook-groep opzette om de bieren toch nog te laten brouwen. Op aanvraag van de regelmatige bezoekers besluit in 2011 de brouwer ook Smiske Bruin te brouwen.

Bottle. It’s a hazy, copper colored beer with a dense, finger-thick light beige head. Dried fruits, nuts, caramel, some anise and raspberry. Quite a lot of sugar too. Too much carbonation I think, and it’s full-bodied and semi-sweetish on the palate. Spiced, sweetish and raspberry tasting. Some nuts, caramel and a pleasant bitterness too. Alcohol notes. Bitter, roasted finish with raspberry. Quite a lot of good flavors and aroma, but it’s a bit messy. 131214

Dobre z mocna iloscia naturalnych drozdzy, piana stoji mocno i jest bardzo trwala. Po dolaniu mazi zabarwia sie na szaro w niektorych miejscach. Mocno metne i o duzych ksztaltach. Piwo jaest niesamowicie swieze i naturalne. Delikatne i zbozowe w smaku. Prawie jakby pochodzilo z ekologicznej uprawy.

(Bottle, Oude Arsenaal, 24 Oct 2013) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with dried fruit, apricots, citrus and candy sugar. Malty, fruity taste with notes of dried fruit, grass, coriander, bread and a fairly dry finish with a slight bitterness. More than medium body, with balanced sweetness. Well balanced and tasty. Quite nice.
