Description
Brasserie Lepers is the result of more than 100 years of experience shared over 6 generations. The tradition has been perpetuated by, on the one hand, the Maille family - Brasserie Maille (since 1905) which then became the Brasserie d'Annœullin, and on the other, by the Lepers - Brasserie Lepers Frères family (from 1880 to 1960 ). These are the ancestors of Charles Lepers, current director of the Lepers Brewery now at La Chapelle d´Armentières, where the copper boilers have been moved from the old family estate of Annoeullin to preserve the art of brewing in the old style.

Note: Previously Brasserie Lepers. In 2012 moved from Annoeullin to 199bis Rue Marle La Chapelle-d'Armentières. Acquired by 3F in 2020, moved to the former Gayant premises in Douai, some production done by 3F in Belgium.

Clear deep blond beer, aery white head, unstable, bit adhesive. Aroma: sweet malts, bit cheesy, pretty faint. Taste: sweet grainy start, some fruits, warm cherries (warme kriekskes), bubble gum, bitter touches, some nuts. Aftertaste: little bitter, nice crisp finish. Quite a lot of flavor for a pilsener beer.
