Description
The brewery Slaghmuylder was founded in 1860 by Emmanuel Slaghmuylder. Around the turn of the century his son Ernest took over the company. He married Marie Van Roy, daughter of a brewer family of Wieze. His three sons opened a new brewery in 1926 which could start immediately with the new brewing process for lager beer. During the war of 1940-1945 brewing restarted for high-fermentation ales. It is only in1958 that the brewery started again with the production of low-fermentation beers. In the mid sixties the three brothers were succeeded by their sons. From 1979 on, the three nephews started brewing the Witkap Pater beers on request of brewery "De Drie Linden" from Brasschaat. In 1981 the Witkap Pater brand was officially taken over by Slaghmuylder. Beginning of theeighties the brewery was equipped with separate fermentation and layering cellars for both high and low fermentation beers. Brewery Slaghmuylder remains a unique family company that builds on a rich tradition.

Cloudy, light golden body under a fizzy, white topfoam. Light spices and candy sugar are evident to the nose. Flavour is packed with soft, late fruits on the lemon side. More tangy spices towards the finish. Masked alcohol. Easy going beverage, but still quite mouthfilling. (BBF, Oslo 10.04.2008).

Large, dense brownish foam resting over a hazy, brown gown. Sweet spicy aroma mixed with a touch of liquorice. Rich in taste with details of moderate sweet caramel malts, dry cheese and dark fruits. Yeast and bitter fruits on the swallow. Rather lively carbonation (second (?) best at the Belgian Beer Fair in Oslo, 10.04.2008).

Bottle. Fennel and pine hops aroma - strong. Hazy pale yellow with large fluffy white head. Sweet peach/lemon peel and fennel/licorice flavor. Wow - this beer is something different - has Witbier and Saison characteristics. Spectacular.
