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.

Aroma of light sweet malts, perfumed notes, fruits, spicy notes. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a light bitter finish. Good Tripel, rather aromatic and sweetish, but not too much of it.

From tap at De Drie Dorstige Herten, Utrecht. Aroma is sweet chocolate, dark malt, caramel, touch of roast, cocoa. Flavour is sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. On the sweet side, not your typical Stout, but pleasant enough.

Tap at Winterbierfestival 2015, Gouda: Clear reddish amber colored brew and there we go, not the traditional Irish Stout colors. Wrong beer in the barrel? Okay, the taste was to sweet for an Stout, and some hints of fruitiness. I hope taste sometimes the real Black version of them.
