Spiced Belgian winter ale with warming orange and thyme

A robust and warming Belgian winter ale crafted to chase away the seasonal chill with its rich, dark character. Deceptively smooth, it balances deep caramelized malts with subtle herbal notes of thyme and a zesty hint of orange peel.

The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1982 by brothers-in-law Pierre Gobron and Christian Bauweraerts in the small village of Achouffe, the brewery became legendary for its folklore-inspired gnomes. Their whimsical branding is matched by world-class Belgian brewing standards, making their beers globally recognized symbols of Belgian craft.

How it is made

Deep in the heart of the Belgian Ardennes, Brasserie d'Achouffe brews this iconic seasonal ale inside their historic brewhouse. The winter recipe incorporates Belgian candy sugar, hops, and a unique infusion of thyme and curaao orange peel.
