Description
February 2020, Brussels. We brew for the first time at home. We don't really know what we're doing yet. We think. We try. We make mistakes. We try to improve it as best we can. And then we stress throughout the fermentation.
We start microbrewery lessons at the EFP in Brussels and we brew dozens of tests before finalizing our first beer: the Fugushima.
Not currently having a standard brewing place meeting the highest of standards or sufficient financial means, we lend the recipe to a partner brewery (Brouwerij Anders, Halen, Limbourg) to start. By offering beers that represent who we are, we hope one day to be able to swim together in the hops and make you discover the fruits of our own production.

33cl can, BB 19/03/2025 achetée au Carrefour La Chasse, Etterbeek.
Dorée, léger voile, col crémeux blanc tenace.
Arôme reste assez centré sur les grains – fruité en rétro-nasal avec des notes d’agrumes du yuzu – le côté ‘sour’ est un peu perdu.
Palais est finement ‘sour’ le yuzu est de suie bien présent et offre une belle acidité d’agrumes – fraicheur de pomme apporte une note acerbe avec un litchi en retrait.
