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.

Licht troebel lichtgeel bier met mooie schuimkraag die helaas wat snel inzakt. Smaak is bitterzoet met iets van citrus, mango, wat abrikoos en een beetje honing.

18/XI/23 - 44cl can from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ ElManana’s place, BB: 5/VII/24 (2023-1059)

Very cloudy beige blond beer, big creamy irregular off-white head, unstable, falls down rather quickly, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: lovely, pretty dank, very fruity, cheesy touch, tropical fruits, sweet impression, a bit earthy. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: very fruity, juicy, a bit dank, good, resinous hops, lovely stuff. Aftertaste: sweet, very fruity, good bitterness, tropical fruits, citrus, lovely!

30/IX/23 - 33cl can from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ home, BB: 8/II/24 (2023-793)

Pretty clear pale blond beer, big solid creamy frothy white head, a bit irregular, unstable, collapses with a lot of patches of snowy foam clinging to the glass. Aroma: nice, lots of tropical fruits, juicy, some oranges, mango, lychee, lots of citrus, lovely! MF: ok carbon, medium body, creamy texture. Taste: very fruity start, some citrus, lots of tropical fruit, slightly sweet, a bit malty, good bitterness. Aftertaste: more fruity, juicy, a bit grassy, nice bitterness, grapefruit, mango, lovely beer, I really like it.

Cannette 33cl à Planchette, Etterbeek.
Pâle présentant un léger voile, col blanc.
Arôme sur un boquuet 'dank' classique du Sorachi. Ce dernier confère un excellent bouquet herbacé de l'aneth avec une pointe d'agrumes et un léger floral en rétro-nasal.
Palais est plaisant avec une bonne note de malt pâle, bien houblonné qui met l'accent sur le Sorachi Ace - herbacé, pointe d'aneth, léger retour 'bready' en fin de bouche avec une bonne amertume.

Good white head over veiled, if bright yellow beer. Grapefruit, fruitrind, unripe strawberry, cucumber. Cypress flavour, again cucumber; other grains. Sweet and malty, maybe tasting a bit tired. Finish has again grapefruit. Not very carbonated, slick, hopoily. OK, but suffering from the malt overdose, no doubt needed for balancing. Txs to Stef!
