Description
LOC Brewery brews quirky, craft beers that are a voyage of discovery for the taste senses. It is our ambition to conquer the world with this. LOC Brewery wants to experiment with flavours, herbs, fruit and even let beers mature in wooden barrels.
LOC Brewery is an initiative of Roy Maas (he left in 2018), Erwin Schellekens, Daniel Tano and Paul Cools. The four know each other because their children were in the same class, so they met in the schoolyard. In December 2014, LOC Brewery started brewing small amounts of beer. Since then, brewing has accelerated to meet the demand from tastings and events. The first beer was launched in June 2015.

Bottle at home. Clear yellow golden color, no head. Smell and taste malts, sweetish, something very odd in there that has a hint of citruspeel perhaps. Or maybe it's just something herbal. Odd. Drinkable but I'm not a fan of this one.

Bottle at home. Murky unclear vague red-purple color, small white to off-white head. Aroma is lactose, sugar, sweet artificial blueberry / raspberry. Flavor is odd. Not very pleasant at all. Plant like, weird bitterness. No, LOC usually provides good stuff but I really don't like this.
