Description
In 1999 the brewery was established in the ''Commanderie van St. Jan'' in Nijmegen. This 12th century monastery has since been our production location and also the place where beer has been drunk most for years. In Brouwerscafé De Hemel, the 12 taps are always filled with different brewes from Hemel. Beer production takes place in the cellars of the Commanderie.

On tap. Pours a dark reddish brown with moderate head. Aromas of candi sugar, sweet dark fruit and toasted malts. Flavors follow same with malts forward and a bit of sweetness and Belgian yeast in the finish. More of a Dubbel than a barley wine.
