Established in 2003
Back in 2003 we decided to go commercial with our latest creation, a Belgian Dark Strong Ale called “Pannepot”. Not with an own installation, for that we did not have the money yet, however, we proceeded as gipsy brewers. First at the Coulier Brewery and later at the nearby Deca Brewery in Woesten / Vleteren. In 2009, we moved to a school facility in the village of Oostvleteren, and where we’ve been brewing our beers independently since 2012.

Bottle from Hop Burns and Black, enjoyed watching Munster v Stormers. Deep ruddy brown with a thin tan head that leaves an oily film. Nose of rum & raisin, prunes, molasses. Taste is big dried fruit sweetness, medium bitterness, brandy warmth. Full body, quite flat and creamy, lingering boozy fruit cake finish. Very nice.
