Description
Bij De Mortselarij doen we de dingen graag net iets anders. We zijn een brouwerij met brewpubambities, een thuishaven voor kunstenaars en muziekartiesten, een ecologische hopplantage. We infuseren ons bier graag met creativiteit. En er staat een paard in onze wei. Omdat het kan.
Dit alles vertaalt zich in ambachtelijke bieren met een hoek af die we op jullie afvuren tijdens een rollercoaster van een smaakbeleving. Mocht u een pijpleiding van onze biertanks tot recht in uw huiskamer laten aanleggen, u zou niet dichter bij de bron zijn! Just sit back and relax, beer is on it’s way!
Het moet echter gezegd, we zijn meer dan een brouwerij. De Mortselarij is een community van gelijkgezinden, amigos en funky liaisons. Het geheel is veel meer dan de som der delen. We inspireren elkaar wederzijds en dat is ook onze kracht. Brouwen is ons vak, mensen samenbrengen onze passie. Of dit nu gebeurt via events, live brouwdagen of workshops, we want you to be a part of it!
Join the Hive and let’s buzz together ♡

Retry 13/08/2022 Small, fast gone beige head over deep brown muddy beer. Islay malt a mile out, dark malts underneath, smoke, tarr, cigar tobacco. Smoke, tarr, peat - but also artichoke, other green vegetables, Islay malt and cigar ash. Full bodied, furious alcoholheat, almost viscous, oily feel. Mild carbonation. Superb - for the Islay lovers, at least. Obviously better than the first try. I Txs to Fred! /I
Sample 23/07/2022
Cap comes off effortlessly. No head, undercarbonated, dirty dark brown beer. Leather boiled in tarr. Laphroaig/Islay a mile out, almost distilled smoke. Chocolate, rumbonen , tarr, peat, Islay malt, bit sticky. Utterly undercarbonated, fiery alcoholcontent; oily feel, alcoholheat and -thinning. Convinced the sampled bottle was not well-closed, beer as flat as a pancake. Despite this, the beer remained quite palatable, certainly a good sign, thanks to the alcohol? Needs to be retried. As to when/where the cap got loose?

Small darker cream head over fully muddy brown-black beer. Sweet whisky nose, boozy yet complex. Vanilla, oakwood, raisins, dried fruity, fresh bakery aroma. Sweet, alcoholic, but again quite complex, and balanced to boot. Dried fruit, preserved orangezeste, liqueurish, blue grapes. Alcoholthinning and -burn, 'hot', bit viscous, chewy, long lasting flavours. Excellent! Much better than the first tries.

Clear brown colour with thin head. Nice caramel notes and plenty of malt too. Pleasantly dry finish.

Small, lightly yellowish head, pitting in over hazy orangeish yellow beer. Fresh fruity nose, citrus and other; C-hops with lupulin, passion fruit, starfruit. Lightly sourish, fruity flavour with wheat acidity. Exotic fruit. Very refreshing, with tittilation carbonation. Light body, wheatslick. Not much in the aftertaste corner. As a rule, I find combinations of wheatale with C-hops a waste of time. Now here is one to change my mind! Very good.

Small off-white head over veiled copper beer, lively carbonated. Fruity esters in the nose, with a quite liqueurish tendency. Sweet, even preserved fruit on syrup. More alcoholic smell than the ABV would warrant. Sourish, fresh passionfruit- or kiwi-like acidity, if immediately followed by sweet, again almost syrupy liqueurish sweetness; preserved fruit returning. Light; spritzy carbonation thanks to the acidity. Strange beer, pulling in two directions at the same time. Thanks to Stef!
Small white head, hazy orange beer, well carbonated; 8 Rainwater, fruity, light pineapple, pineapple juice. 7 Flavours of papaya, passionfruit; starfruit and faint citrus. Sweet and lightly sour. 7.5 Good carbonation; light body. 6 Overall 7.5 Retried 04/03/2023
