Brouwerij Huyghe
Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 1872
The brewhouse consists of three kettles from 1946 and a wort filter from 2014. The kettles are made of red copper and are “hammered” by hand into the existing shapes. The capacity is 3000 kg deposit. In the past, brews of 250 to 300 hl of lager were produced with this. Today we brew 110 hl per brew since the current beers are of a much higher density.

From a 330ml bottle on 1/11/2024 (shared by Ed with me and Butz). Pours hazy deep golden with a huge head. The nose is clove, spice, Belgain yeast and a bit of banana. Same of the sip with some citrussy sweet and sour, leading to a pleasant light bitterness. Fullish body with lively carbonation. Really nicely balanced and very enjoyable.
