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 33 cl. Pours an almost clear golden with a dense and lively off-white head leaving some lacework. Some flowery hops in the nose - combined with typical Belgian yeast. Medium body, sweet and fruity with the Belgian yeast being really dominant and adding a slightly spicy edge. Quite a hoppy finish. 131112

aroma van hop, bloemen smaak is bitter, droog, pittig, knoflook ? maar wat blijft hangen is de chemische medicinale afdronk, en hier was ik niet over te spreken. Ik zou deze niet aanraden --- Beer merged from original tick of Nature-Ale on 17 May 2018 at 15:15 - Score: 3

On-tap in Daisey’s: Brugge, on 18th Oct 2012. Light golden in body with white lacing. Would never have guessed this was a ’mustard’ beer unless I’d been told. I couldn’t find a trace of mustard flavours in my glass: aroma wise or in the taste. I thought it interesting and yeasty, hints of spices and candid fruits but no mustard for me. This was my first beer of the evening so my tatse buds should have been fit enough to find some mustard if there was any! Try it please: but the mustard presence is low, or at least it was in my 33cl glass.

Farmer’s Cabinet, Philly tap: Pours an orange color with a white head. Aroma is Belgian yeast. Taste is kind of light like mineral water flavored with beer. I didn’t really get too much mustard taste out of this. Basically, this is just a slightly sweet Belgian ale. I’ve had better, and I’ve had worse.

Pour is a murky brown with a small tan head. Aroma is brown sugar, spice and toffee. Flavor is a nice heavy molasses with some dark fruit and spice. Spice lingers on the tounge after the swallow. This was tasty and probably the spicest Belgian beer I’ve had in a while. The 12% was not to be found.
