In September, we reached a milestone in our story – our 100th brew. We wanted to brew something really special, so we decided to mark the occasion by inviting our friends at Pope’s Yard Brewery (Hertfordshire) over for the return leg of our collaboration.
The result of that brew is a beautiful Flanders Winter Ale that we’ve called “Tezamen”, which means “Together” in Flemish Dutch and symbolises both the collaboration itself and the togetherness that we’re all striving to create in these uncertain times.
In designing the label, we’ve taken inspiration from the art nouveau heritage of Belgian architecture and typography, with the background hinting at socially distanced people all linked together despite how far apart they are.
The beer itself, at 6% ABV, is a dark reddish-brown ale with a full body and the hint of residual sweetness that’s typical of a Belgian beer.
Whether you’re able to socialise (safely) in person this winter or you’re partying by video call, we hope you’re able to enjoy this beer as intended: Tezamen – together.
Tezamen is available now in our online shop and from the brewery bottle shop – see below for our Christmas opening times.
