Gooisch Saison (6%) brewed by Gooische Bierbrouwerij in Hilversum (the Netherlands).
This tasty #saison very recently won a silver medal at the Dutch Beer Challenge. It's brewed with locally grown Saint-Johns rye. The beer is dry and semi-bitter with a yeasty nose and some fruity esters. A thirst quencher for sure!

Postel dubbel (7%) brewed by Brouwerij Affligem (owner by Heineken) in Opwijk, Belgium
This #abbeybeer in the traditional Belgian double style is full of grainy and roasted maltiness, with hints of caramel, liquorice and red fruits. Not too strong but full of flavour. The Postel Abbey in Mol is still around and the monks living there still make and sell several artisanal products (like cheeses and spices) but there is no brewing activity.

This week there I attended a #beertasting at Biergilde Het Lindeke in #Brussels with Jef Van Den Steen from Brouwerij De Glazen Toren.
We tasted seven of their beers, nearly all the beers this brewery from Erpe-Mere makes. The line-up:
1. Saison Erpe-Mere (6.5%)
2. Jan de Lichte dubbel witbier (7%)
3. Ondineke tripel (8.5%)
4. Canister Scotch ale (8.7%)
5. Lentebier (9 %)
6. Cuvee Angelique Herfstbier (8.3%)
7. Q20 anniversary quadruple (10%)

As you can see this brewery produces a lot of traditional strong alcoholic beers. It was quite a heavy line-up to be honest. My favourite was the #Saison.

Kasteel Donker quadrupel (11%) brewed by Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck in Izegem (Belgium)

This strong dark ale has a beautiful beige foam that holds long. It's full bodied with caramel, syrupy and roasted flavours from the malts. There are some spicy notes, a little bitterness, and a long lasting sweetness from the alcohol.

Brutus tripel (8.5%) brewed by Brauw in Genk (Belgium). I had this beer in a restaurant near the beautiful Dutch nature reserve De Hoge Veluwe.
It's a nice Belgian tripel, malty, sweet with hints of spices. The inspiration for the beer and the sales of it comes from De Veluwe.

#quintessence 2025 at Brasserie Cantillon. It was my first time and it was amazing! Such a great atmosphere, with lovely people and very special beers. I thoroughly enjoyed serving the delicious Lou Pepe Kriek from 2013.  What a treat!

120 minute IPA (15-20%) brewed by Dogfish Head brewery in Milton, DE (USA).
This extremely strong IPA was continually hopped during the boil and whirlpool and then dry hopped with even more hops. An IPA that ages well, according to the bottle, that has no expiration date.
Not sure how long I had this bottle in my basement but it definitely tastes like this was aged a bit already. The beer still has a hoppy bitterness but not as much as I'd expect. The beer is quite sweet, malty but mainly from the very strong alcohol, and some hints of raisins. Interesting to try but not really my thing.

Gooisch Rood (5%) brewed by Gooische Bierbrouwerij in Hilversum (the Netherlands).
This prize winning red lager is inspired by Frankisch roodbier. This bottom fermented amber is tasty, easy drinking and thirst quenching. It has a nice malty taste with hints of fruity hops.BIG LIKE! 

I recently visited this great Dutch brewery and brought back quite a few beers so there will be more posts about them in the coming weeks.

This week there I attended a #beertasting at Biergilde Het Lindeke in #Brussels with Jef Van Den Steen from Brouwerij De Glazen Toren.
We tasted seven of their beers, nearly all the beers this brewery from Erpe-Mere makes. The line-up:
1. Saison Erpe-Mere (6.5%)
2. Jan de Lichte dubbel witbier (7%)
3. Ondineke tripel (8.5%)
4. Canister Scotch ale (8.7%)
5. Lentebier (9 %)
6. Cuvee Angelique Herfstbier (8.3%)
7. Q20 anniversary quadruple (10%)

As you can see this brewery produces a lot of traditional strong alcoholic beers. It was quite a heavy line-up to be honest. My favourite was the #Saison.

This week there I attended a #beertasting at Biergilde Het Lindeke in #Brussels with Jef Van Den Steen from Brouwerij De Glazen Toren.
We tasted seven of their beers, nearly all the beers this brewery from Erpe-Mere makes. The line-up:
1. Saison Erpe-Mere (6.5%)
2. Jan de Lichte dubbel witbier (7%)
3. Ondineke tripel (8.5%)
4. Canister Scotch ale (8.7%)
5. Lentebier (9 %)
6. Cuvee Angelique Herfstbier (8.3%)
7. Q20 anniversary quadruple (10%)

As you can see this brewery produces a lot of traditional strong alcoholic beers. It was quite a heavy line-up to be honest. My favourite was the #Saison.

Kasteel Donker quadrupel (11%) brewed by Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck in Izegem (Belgium)

This strong dark ale has a beautiful beige foam that holds long. It's full bodied with caramel, syrupy and roasted flavours from the malts. There are some spicy notes, a little bitterness, and a long lasting sweetness from the alcohol.

Brutus tripel (8.5%) brewed by Brauw in Genk (Belgium). I had this beer in a restaurant near the beautiful Dutch nature reserve De Hoge Veluwe.
It's a nice Belgian tripel, malty, sweet with hints of spices. The inspiration for the beer and the sales of it comes from De Veluwe.

#quintessence 2025 at Brasserie Cantillon. It was my first time and it was amazing! Such a great atmosphere, with lovely people and very special beers. I thoroughly enjoyed serving the delicious Lou Pepe Kriek from 2013.  What a treat!

120 minute IPA (15-20%) brewed by Dogfish Head brewery in Milton, DE (USA).
This extremely strong IPA was continually hopped during the boil and whirlpool and then dry hopped with even more hops. An IPA that ages well, according to the bottle, that has no expiration date.
Not sure how long I had this bottle in my basement but it definitely tastes like this was aged a bit already. The beer still has a hoppy bitterness but not as much as I'd expect. The beer is quite sweet, malty but mainly from the very strong alcohol, and some hints of raisins. Interesting to try but not really my thing.

Gooisch Rood (5%) brewed by Gooische Bierbrouwerij in Hilversum (the Netherlands).
This prize winning red lager is inspired by Frankisch roodbier. This bottom fermented amber is tasty, easy drinking and thirst quenching. It has a nice malty taste with hints of fruity hops.BIG LIKE! 

I recently visited this great Dutch brewery and brought back quite a few beers so there will be more posts about them in the coming weeks.

Frelon Brett session IPA (4.7%) brewed and barrel aged by Brasserie La Source In Brussels (Belgium).
A hoppy session beer aged with the brewery's house #brett culture. The result, a year after bottling, is still quite nice. A fresh, fruity and refreshing beer, not strong in alcohol but with a lot of flavour and a mild aroma and taste of wild yeast. 
Got this bottle in a pretty box from the brewery's recent crowdfunding.

Steenuilke blond (6.5%) brewed by Brouwerij de Ryck in Herzele (Belgium)
This tasty blonde beer is malty with herbal, fruity and grassy notes due to the use of three local herbs. It has a beautiful label with an owl, the beer is brewed in support of this specific rural owl in Flanders.
