In the early 1900s, the village of De Panne, close to the French border, was famous for two things -- the ‘Pannepots,’ or fishing boats, that could be seen along the coast, and the unique dark ale enjoyed by the local fishermen. Our Old Fisherman’s Ale is a tribute to these hardy sailors and their rich, flavourful brew. Unfiltered. Unpasteurized. Bottle-conditioned.
Pannepøt (read Pannepeut) is a dark quadruple (Trappist style), then specially brewed as a nod to the Danish market. Since 2006, however, the popularity of this beer in Belgium has grown to such an extent that it has become a fixture in the Struise range. The image on the label is a painting of the sailing ship “Très Hombres”, which in the past brought us many wooden barrels from the Caribbean islands.
