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.

Bottled 330ml (from Kirkenes)
Murky yellow colour, small white head. Herbal and overriped mango, banana aroma. Medium-bodied. Smoothie-like. Fruity mango, banana, papaya smoothie. Odd. Quite far from industrial black metal.

Bottle. Unclear golden body with a small, disappearing white head. Quite nice aroma with distinct Belgium yeast some malt and hint of fruit in general. Flavor is a bit more ordinary than aroma, sweet malt, some fruit, particular peaches and low bitterness. Medium body and decent aftertaste. A bit unusually and feels quite pleasant without offering anything extra really.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 9.99%. Hazy golden to orange colour, moderate white head. Disappointing aroma of grain, dust and basement, hints of stale jam. The flavour is much better, notes of spicy Belgian ale yeast, white kandij sugar and decent hops. Not too sweet, not too dry, well balanced.

Flaske fra Gulating Stavanger, hjemme: klar gylden med fint gardinskum. Urter, høy og besk citrus i aromaen. Det snerpende, lett beske inntrykket fortsetter også i smaken. Overmodne citrusfrukter sammen med syrlig malt er hovedinntrykket.

Botella 33 cl de supermercado Brugge 13..09.. 2017. (r33). Sesión con Eastwood y Octavio. Color amarillento tostado turbio con espuma blanca persistente. Sabores maltosos y cereales dulces con herbáceos amargos finales más menos persistentes. Cuerpo medio algo denso y buena sensación alcohólica. No está mal, buena. Para repetir.

Pours clear, dark amber. Small white head. Smell is gentle, sweet, wood, mild fruity notes as well as a touch of booze. Taste is full, sharp, bit bitter, earthy, some chocolate (burnt) malts. Ok. Bit thin and boozy.
