Description
In 2009 starten Thijs Maenhout en Birgit De Rammelaere met een kleine brouwerij in een voormalige bouillonfabriek tussen Tielt en Meulebeke. In 2014 verhuizen zij naar Pittem omdat de capaciteit van de brouwerij niet meer voldoende bleek. Begin 2015 draait de nieuwe brouwerij, met een capaciteit van 1200 hectoliter, op volle toeren.

21st October 2024, 33cl bottle in Cafe Botteltje (Ostend). Deep amber body, clean and clear, off-white crust. Boozy and balanced with a good malty base for the hops to play with. Might be a bit sweet for some, but I really liked it.

Bottle at Toogoloog Middlekirke. Hazy deep red colour lasting pink head. Red berry fruits aroma with a little redcurrant sourness. Not as sweet as some of these fruit beers. But not sour either. Just inbetween. Nice enough. .not real fruit but a decenf palate. Cleanser. .
