Witbier
5% ABV
'Witbier' is still a tradition in the beer range and many beer lovers appreciate the authentic character of the white beers. That's the reason why Bockor Brewery has his own white beer since march 2008. Bellegems Witbier is made by the traditional recipe of a white beer: a perfect harmony between barley and wheat. The wheat gives the beer its light colour. While cooking the wort, hops and specific herbs are added. After the cooking process, the sterile wort is being cooled and fresh yiest is added. The high fermentation is the base of the fruityness in the whitebeer and the spicy aroma's result in its fresh character. After fermentation the beer is lagered and matured. This is to not loose the cloudyness in the beer. After that the beer is not filtered but suger and fresh yiest is added to be filled in bottles. For 2 weeks, the beer has to rest in hot chambers for the process of refermentation. The final smell and taste results from this process.

Lager
5.2% ABV
Barley, semolina, fine hops and water are the ingrediënts for the lager wort. This wort, Bockor-specific, gets semened with an typical brewery low yiest. After the yiest period of approximately ten days, where the typical flavour package of our lager is determined, the young beer is cooled down to 0°C and gets it through a maturization of 3 weeks. By a double filtration, Bockor gets its golden colour and its clearness. Bockor has a nice foam head when the beer is poured professionally in a clean, degreased glass. The smell has a nice touch of hops and a subtle bitterness.

Kriek MaxBockor
Bellegem, Belgium
Fruit
3.5% ABV
Responding to the continuous consumer demand for stronger flavoured cherry beers, Bockor has launched the Kriek Max to give a new impulse to the cherry segment of the beer market. Kriek Max occupies another position on the beer market than the traditional Jacobins Kriek, as it has a lower alcohol content of 3.5%. Kriek Max furthermore contains no less than 25% of cherries and consequently offers a sweeter, even fuller flavour. Kriek Max is made from a mixture of bottom-fermented and spontaneously fermented beer (also called foeder beer). The perfect combination of cherries, natural juices and aromas on the one hand and the basic beer on the other hand lends this kriek not only its excellent flavour, but also its pleasant smell. The base concept “more flavour” is clearly linked to the word “max” suggesting maximum flavour and thus creating a clear product image. Its clear, dark red colour and its fruity character appeal to many consumers. Served in its own tulip glass with an elegant stem, Kriek Max is a true delight for real kriek beer lovers!

Belgian Blonde
8% ABV
OMER. traditional blond is made of excellent summer malted barley from the Loire region (France) and pure water. During the brewing process sugars are liberated that will serve later to nourish the yeast. During the cooking process 3 varieties of hops from Germany, Slovenia and the Czech Republic are added to give the beer the specific aroma and bitterness. After this cooking the top-fermenting yeast is added. The top fermentation process lasts 4-5 days at about 20°C. This yeast gives the beer its fruity and full-flavoured character. After this main fermentation the beer is lagered for 3 weeks at 0°C. Then the beer is filtered. Fresh yeast and sugar are again added to engine the refermentation after the beer is being bottled. This refermentation goes on for 14 days at a high temperature of 25°C. Here the sugars are transformed into alcohol and carbon dioxide. They give the beer the nice head while pooring.
