Description
De bieren worden gebrouwen in een moderne 25 Hl installatie in Erpe-Mere. Gelet op de sterk groeiende vraag en het plaatsgebrek op de huidige site werd de brouwerij voor verdere groei genoodzaakt uit te kijken naar een bijkomende locatie. Deze werd gevonden in de Industriezone AALST ZUID III, waar een bijzondere ruime productiehal werd aangekocht. Deze werd volledig gerenoveerd en uitgerust voor de verdere expansie van de brouwerij. Op deze site werden 6 gekoelde cylindroconische gistingstanks van 37 Hl/elk geïnstalleerd. Tegelijkertijd werd er een nieuwe Italiaans- Duitse afvullijn geplaatst voor 33 cl flesjes, en een ultramoderne hergistingskamer.

Ondanks alle investeringen in high-tech toestanden blijft de missie van de brouwerij ongewijzigd: op ambachtelijke wijze smaakvol natuurbier brouwen in een moderne installatie, met enkel de beste grondstoffen en zonder toevoeging van om het even welk kunstmatig additief!

330ml bottle delivered from Sophie's Beer Store and drunk at home. Light to mid-gold and a bit hazy with a huge off-white head. Lots of yeast in the aroma with banana chips, light tropical fruit. Bitteraweet and spicy taste with a dry astringent finish. Apple and toffee notes in the aftertaste along with more spicy yeast. Heavy carbonation. A wonderfully complex beer.

330ml bottle as part of a delivery from Sophie's Beer Store and drunk at home. This is one hell of. Gusher, but I was able to save most of it. Light gold, hazy with lots of visible carbonation and a thin white head. Sweet taste with candy sugar, sweet cooking spice, bready yeast. Taste is sweet, slightly spicy, warming. Leads to a short finish with little aftertaste, unlike the best Tripels which have that lip-smacking yeast note at the end. Still, this is pretty good. The heavy carbonation is pretty intense but but does not trespass on my enjoyment. Recommended.

Flaska från SB. Murrig brun vätska med medelhögt smutsvitt skum. Liknar en oude bruin, lätt lite saftig, ganska torr, plommon, russin, julmust. Även smakbilden är lite murrig men ganska trevlig.

Bottle online from Belgiuminabox. Pours a murky golden/amber colour with a huge foamy off-white head. Aromas of floral, yellow and stoney fruits and spice. Taste has more floral and fruity notes, more peppery spice, a little added herbal note, bread and a hoppy bittersweet finish. Nice and fresh. Full body with a smooth tangy mouthfeel. Excellent Tripel.
