Description
The Brasserie du Pays Flamand was founded in November 2006. At the start, a common passion of 2 childhood friends: Olivier Duthoit and Mathieu Lesenne, turned into a real large-scale project. The brewery first settled in Blaringhem, on the border of French Flanders and Artois. This is where Bracine, Anosteké and Wilde Leeuw were born. Today, a second, much larger production site has been set up in Merville, in order to meet growing demand. Each brew is a claim to their origins, to the northern terroir, and each beer, an invitation to conviviality. The different ranges offered testify to respected traditional know-how, a search for original taste, and a desire to discover new flavors. The Brasserie du Pays Flamand regularly collaborates with brewers from all over the world, bringing together cultures and ideas to offer you exceptional beers.

330ml bottle from Brasserie du Pays Flamand. Pours black, inch-thick tan collar. Aroma of black malt, slight orange hints. Initial sip produces a slight tanginess that wasn't expected, a touch of sherbet even.. getting cognac shades from the 2% orange syrup, not a huge amount of red wine influence, but overall a decent imperial stout. I do quite like cognac, so was nice to have some shades coming through.

Best before 07/25, from one grocery shop at Paris, opening this bottle tonight after the gala of my daughter. Tired and happy to drink this ale brewed on the Belgian way, high fermented, malty, sweet, note of sugar, bitter, a bit syrupy, classical.

440ml can from Flandrinks, Hazebrouck. Pours a hazed gold, pure white head. Quite a fruity DIPA, mingling pine notes. Medium to full bodied, smooth with a gentle bitter close. Decent.

330ml bottle @ Tim's place, Gent. Brought by me, picked up at Le Chais, Hazebrouck. Pours an unclear black, deep tan head. Really enticing aroma.. red wine, berry sweets, bourbon, vanilla.. a little harsh to taste, acrid bitterness, aggressive roasted malt.. ok overall

Dorada casi limpia. Espuma blanca de duración y consistencia normales. Rico aroma lupulado frutal, notas cítricas, piña y mango. En boca es muy agradable, de paso fácil, suave al paladar, perfecta de gas. Amargor algo más que moderado, y sabor de predominio lupulado, pero con cierto equilibrio con las maltas y de ricas notas frutales. Muy bien hecha.
