Sint Canarus Tripel

7.5 vol.% alc.

Our first beer and still the best seller. And that's no coincidence.

It is extremely balanced, not too this and not too that, pleasantly soft and drinkable. Very fruity.

Brewed naturally without chimique, and you can taste it. Guaranteed no headache the day after.

Image

Virgin of Gottem

6.5 vol.% alc.

Virgin of Gottem is a pure natural beer. Blonde, 6.5% alc., with the finest Belgian hops and even a hop-bell in every bottle.

In fact, it is no more and no less than a wonder of the world. Therefore it's also a bit rare, as the name suggests.

Pleasantly dry and bitter, but certainly not excessive. Summer thirst quencher for lovers of a bitter.

Image

Witte Piet

5.0 vol.% alc.

Typical wheat beer Belgian style, backwards from Dentergems Wit, but then even better.

Brewed with pilsner malt and wheat malt, a special Weizzen yeast, a A pinch of cilantro and a secret ingredient finish it off.

Only 5 % alc. , naturally cloudy, packed with vitamins.

Image

Stravvere Piet

10.0 vol.% alc.

Strong blond beer as the brewer likes it : strong (10%), blonde, firmly hopped. But everything in moderation.

Formerly called "Straffe Piet" but the name has changed on request from a brewer from Bruges who was afraid that there would be confusion in the game. Oh dear.

Image

Potteloereke bruin

8.0 vol.% alc.

Potteloereke is a strong brown beer of 8% ALC, brewed on request from the Meigemse Pottery 't Hoveke.

This Potteloereke beer is at its best when served in the special artisanal Potteloereke beer pot.

Potteloereke is brewed with a mixture of special pale, dark malts and brown candy sugar. The Potteloereke has a Fruity aroma, a firm head and a slightly sweet aftertaste.

Image

Père Canard

8.5 vol.% alc.

Arising from a missing, that is to say, a mistake in the malt deposit, but still extremely successful and that is why it continues to exist.

Brewed with a fine blend of special malts, Poperinge hops (not too much), and a yeast of very good yes even Sacred origins.

Initially brewed as a Christmas beer, but too good to only be brewed around Christmas to drink. That is why it now says on the label: "Christmas, Easter and Sinksenbier", and so we can enjoy it all year round.

Alcohol : 8.5 to 9% ALC. Colour reddish-brown, colour only derived from the malt, not from a bottle ! Slightly softer in character than the Potteloereke.

Image

Stoute Piet

10.0 vol.% alc.

The brewer wanted to mimic the Westvleteren 12, because of the CORONA holiday. The 1st reading was pretty much wrong. Although it did become a nice beer.

The recipe was and is still being refined. Through the use of a exquisite blend of Belgian pale, dark and roasted malts it became a beer with enormous depth. Quite strong, several got drunk.

The story of the Sint Canarus home brewery

It must have been around 1988, as a young guy I suddenly got Eager to brew beer in mother's pots. No sooner said than done, I took the bike to the library to get a book about brewing beer. The internet was not yet in force today.

On a gas fire belonging to aunt Soes and in a pot belonging to mother, the first 10 liters of beer was brewed and fermented. It must have been drinkable, because a few times a year the fire was lit under the pot.

A few years later, Donald D.D. was able to buy an old washing kettle. The capacity increased from 10 litres to around 70 litres. In the meantime we moved from Astene to Gottem (circa 1993), where there was an occasionally brew on the courtyard.

Rita van Aarsele and Christophe were undoubtedly already beer drinkers, but with a brewer-tenant in their house, they were even more infected with the beer bug. The brewery moved to the vacant warehouses at Rita in Aarsele.
