Description
The name Brasserie du Flo originates from the locality located just in front of the town hall. At this place was a body of water, the size of which varied according to the seasons and which was called 'Le Flo'. The Confrérie de St. Antoine (Brotherhood of St. Antoine) has had its own beer brewed since 1978 (Cuvée St. Antoine Brune). The beer was brewed for years at Brasserie du Bocq in Purnode and then at the Van Steenberge brewery in Ertvelde. In December 2002 a private microbrewery was established in the former town hall of Blehen.

After being at a standstill following the explosion of a tank in 2017, a new project (still under the wings of the Confrérie de St. Antoine) is being set up where the quality and the didactic aspect are put forward. A young team of enthusiasts will invest in modern equipment to relaunch the brewery.

Clear, very pale yellow color, small white head that disappears fast. Smell artificial cherries, sweetness and musty. Very sweet cherry taste. Don’t taste anything else actually. Weird color for a beer that tastes like cherries. Decent carbo, low body. Weird beer, quite surprising fruitbeer in my opinion.

Bottled - we had a hard time figuring out if it was the blond or the brune - we think that the blue background behind the monk and pig makes it the brune. An unclear amber-brown beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and brettanomyces. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, yeast, malt, fruity esters, and a bit of brettanomyces, leading to a dry yeasty finish.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. The label is different from the one displayed, but whether the pig is male or female I dunno, and I don’t really care, but this for sure ain’t no Belgian Blond. Pours a cloudy and opaque nutty brown with a beige head. The nose has a little Brett and lots of brown sugar. Medium body, dried fruits, roasted malt and caramel with the Brett adding a dry edge. Phenollic finish. 080910
