More About Bacchus Framboise

A light and refreshing drink with a spritzy tartness, the fruit is added to give an intensely fruity beer. The half champagne sized bottles are paper wrapped.

Meet the Producer, Bacchus

Bacchus

Style: Brewery

Bacchus is one of those Belgian breweries that feels wonderfully stuck in its own strange little world, in the best possible way. While modern beer constantly races toward bigger hops, louder branding and increasingly chaotic pastry stout inventions, Bacchus quietly keeps doing what West Flanders has done brilliantly for generations: brewing deeply traditional Flemish sour ales with patience, balance and just the right amount of funky weirdness. The brewery’s beers sit somewhere between beer, wine, balsamic vinegar and dark fruit compote, which sounds mildly alarming on paper but somehow works beautifully in the glass.

The name Bacchus is most famous for Bacchus Vlaams Oud Bruin, a classic Flemish old brown ale that has become a cult favourite among sour beer fans across Europe. These beers are traditionally matured in large oak foeders, allowing slow oxidation and natural ageing to create layers of cherry, raisin, caramel, oak, apple skin and gentle sweet-sour acidity. Unlike some modern sour beers that seem determined to melt your tastebuds for entertainment purposes, Bacchus beers stay incredibly balanced and approachable. There’s proper depth and richness underneath the acidity, making them surprisingly easy to drink despite all the complexity going on.

Bacchus forms part of the wider Van Honsebrouck brewery family in West Flanders, one of Belgium’s most important brewing regions and basically sacred ground for fans of traditional sour and mixed fermentation beer. Brewing culture here tends to lean earthy, mature, tart and quietly complex rather than huge, flashy or aggressively boozy. Bacchus fits perfectly into that tradition. The beers feel rustic and historic without ever becoming dusty or old-fashioned.

What makes Bacchus especially charming is how unapologetically Belgian it all feels. These are beers designed for cafés, cheese boards, roast dinners and long conversations rather than hype releases and social media photoshoots. Even the sweeter side found in some Bacchus beers feels deeply traditional to the region, helping soften the acidity and making the beers welcoming rather than intimidating. There’s a confidence to the brewery that comes from simply knowing exactly what it does well and sticking to it.

For a lot of drinkers, Bacchus becomes a gateway into the wonderfully strange world of Flemish sour beer. Complex enough to keep proper beer nerds fascinated, but approachable enough that even people convinced they “don’t like sour beer” often end up going back for another sip. Slightly funky, deeply traditional and dangerously drinkable, pretty much everything Belgian beer does best really.
