Description
It started as a hobby. In 2012, four brewery friends decided to join their tasty tripel in the Brouwland Beer Competition. From a selection of more than 90 beers, our Bryggja was voted the best hobby beer in Belgium by a professional jury. The start of a great adventure! We took this opportunity with both hands and chose a name, bottle, a suitable design for our label ... With the Bruges Beer Festival 2013, our beer was launched. We brewed externally and the sales went beyond all expectations. The following year our 2nd beer "Amuse" came on the market. A spicy beer that is very suitable as an aperitif beer. At the end of 2014, the decision was made to fully go ahead and start our own brewery. We found a building in Moerkerke and in the spring of 2015 the brewing installation was installed. We only work with Belgian hops and can therefore also use the official logo. Our beer is a traditional product, with us no extracts, no flavor or foam enhancers. We like to keep it pure nature.

2/II/14 - bottle or tap? @ Brugs Bierfestival - BB: n/a (2014-166) Thanks to Erwin, PriorL and Mathieu87 for sharing today's beers!

Little cloudy yellow to orange beer, aery fizzy white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very fruity, peaches, sweet, somewhat malty. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: fruity start, some citrus, grassy, bitter hops, pretty dry. Aftertaste: very fruity, grapefruit, bit sour, lemony, hops, floral touch in the end. Not bad, not bad at all!

Draught Small white head over unclear yellow beer. Very spicy, even a bit artificial - as a wee room deodorant... let’s call it perfumed. Perfumed, citrussy, going over in a very bitter flavour, like dry citrus peel left too long oxydizing. Medium bodied, well-carbonated. Certainly not to my amusement. was: 6/4/4/3/10 retried Good white head over clear golden beer. Very powerful herbal nose, spicy, lavender, eucalyptus. Herbal/spicy again, very bitter/astringent/dry flavour, as wormwood. Feels spritzy, doesn’t look it. Medium bodied, bone-dry finish. Not everybody’s choice, not for the fainthearted. Still, liked it better than the first time around.

Sampled draft @ Brugs Bier Festival 2014. Hazy orange, small white head. Smells like cleaning agents, artificial mint, air refresher, pine car freshener. Tastes like cleaning agents, air refreshers, fake mint, fake herbs, car fresheners, chemicals. Fizzy body. This is like drinking an air refresher, terrible. What is in this thing? Who is amusing themselves here, the brewer?

(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, golden colour with a blond mid-sized foamy head. Mildly yeasty (cara-)malt-accented aroma with notes of white bread, citrus and a shy herbal hoppy touch. Moderately sweet and delicately sour flavour, medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly caramelly malty taste with moderately fruity notes; sweet malty and shy bitter hoppy and slightly herbal spicy finish. Ok, not a must. 25.XII.13
