Description
The history of the brewery begins in 1821, when Messrs Wauters, Faseert and Neyt founded the Halve Maan brewery in Hulst. The Hulsterse Brouwers persist in brewing top-fermented beer. Even when all other Dutch breweries brew Pilsener, traditional beer still flows from the kettles in Hulst. In 1968, the brewery in the city center of Hulst was closed and the cellar rights were sold to Paul Vermeersen, who before then was a distributor of Hulster beer.

In 1989, a new brewery was put into use on the Absdaalseweg. From 2010, the old brewery installation was thoroughly modernized. In 2016, the name “Beer Brewery Vermeersen” was adopted. The brewery is currently focusing on brewing beautifully balanced beers from, as far as possible, local ingredients for the Zeeland Market.

Don’t really see why this beer is rated so low on this website. I thought it was quite nice. Decent, quite heavy, taste and smell. Great mouthfeel, with not too much co2 bubbles and a nice, lasting full body.

I really like this beer. Nice brown colour with some redness shining through. Smells pretty nice: sweet, caramel, raisins.. But not too much like in some other ’dubbel’ beers. Tastes very balanced sweet but fresh at the same time. Good mouthfeel with not too much co2, full body.

Colour is quite much what i like. Taste is very sour and artificial. I don’t think they used real cherries. Chemical was my only not, so it bothered me obviously.

Taste is pretty good. It’s quite a decent witbeer. This beer is better if you just drink it, instead of breaking it down to rate it.
