Description
In 1886 the Valkenburg branch named "De Valkenburgsche Leeuwenbrouwerij'' of the German ''Dittmann & Sauerländer Actiën Brauerei'' was founded. After WW I the Valkenburg brewery became independant as Bierbrouwerij de Leeuw. In 2000 the brewey was acquired by the Belgian brewer Haacht and in 2005 all brewing activites in Valkenburg came to an end. The Leeuw Pilsner and Oud Bruin were from now on brewed at the Belgian parent company. The beer is still available in bars and restaurants in South Limburg.

Draught @ Café Frape, Maastricht. Pours clear golden with stable white head. Clear aroma of malt and yeast, with mild, hoppy notes. Mild, sweetish flavour of malt and yeast, complemented by some hoppy notes. Estery afteraste. Nothing special but a good thirst quencher on a hot day.
