Description
Brouwerij De Smedt werd opgericht omstreeks 1790. Tussen 2000 en 2003 werd ze stapsgewijs door Heineken overgenomen, wat resulteerde in een naamsverandering in Affligem Brouwerij. Op 1 mei 2010 werd het vennootschap "Affligem Brouwerij BDS" opgeheven en werd het een onderdeel van Alken-Maes c.q. Heineken België. Vandaag is de brouwerij in Opwijk vooral het kennis- en brouwcentrum voor alle Affligembieren.

Flesje (tht sept. 2020) thuis gedronken. Goudgeel helder bier met matig schuim dat als een film blijft liggen. Aroma is zeer moutig. Smaak is zoet en fruitig (appel, mandarijn). De appel smaak blijft even hangen om later plaats te maken voor een iets bittere hoppige nasmaak. Ondanks de hoge leeftijd nog altijd goed te drinken.
