De Gouden Boom (Palm)

Client Brewer in Brugge, West Flanders, Belgium 🇧🇪
Owned by Brouwerij Palm

Established in 1983

Description
In 1872, Jules Vanneste bought the ‘t Hamerken distillery. In 1889, he took the step of definitively converting the distillery into a brewery. Soon, ‘t Hamerken top-fermentation beers became a household name in the Bruges area. Brewing continued till 1982.

In 1983, Paul Vanneste (great-grandson of the founder) founded the new De Gouden Boom brewery in collaboration with Frank Boon Brewery from Lembeek. In 1985 Brouwerij De Gouden Boom is granted a licence to brew the STEENBRUGGE abbey beers.

On 16 November 2001, PALM brewery acquired a majority interest in Brouwerij De Gouden Boom and in 2003 it was completely taken over by Palm Brewery. In the same year the Prior of St Peter’s Abbey in Steenbrugge licensed PALM Breweries to brew STEENBRUGGE abbey beers.

Since 2004 production of Bruges beers has been relocated to the PALM Breweries site in Steenhuffel.

bottle from palma, mallorca, spain. as Brabante Oro hazy to clean yellow, large smooth offwhite head. mild malty aroma, also fruity notes likely from the yeast. flavor is yellow fruity, clean, crisp, fruits, malts, and very little hops make a good combo, quite easy drinking and well flavored beer. The 6.5% is very well hidden, you wouldn't notice at all unless someone told you.
