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.

Bottle 2005: Poured a hazy brown with a light head. The aroma is light alcohol, honey, spice, and dark fruit. The taste is fruit, honey, but not that overpowering alcohol you would thing at that high ABV.
