Brouwerij Kortrijk-dUtsel

Kortrijk-dUtsel is a small Belgian beer with an unusually wine-like presentation: an 8.9% specialty-grain brew associated with Kortrijk-Dutsel in Flemish Brabant. Its documented profile sits between Belgian beer and bière brut, with strong carbonation and a sparkling-white-wine appearance. The brewery’s identity is closely tied to its village, while the beer’s exact first-brewing date remains unverified. A village beer with a bright, sparkling profile The beer is associated with Brouwerij Kortrijk-Dutsel in Kortrijk-Dutsel, Belgium, and is listed at 8.9% ABV in beer references. The brewery’s product description presents it as brewed with Belgian grains and hops through a classical multi-step process, with a refreshing character and fruity aroma. Its appearance is specifically compared with sparkling white wine, although it is presented as beer rather than wine. From local brewery to documented beer identity A 2013 regional Hageland brewery guide lists Kortrijk-Dutsel among the area’s recognised breweries with its own working brewing installation. Contemporary brewery-directory material places the operation at Lindestraat 21 in Kortrijk-Dutsel and records a naming change from Engel to Dutsel after a German brewery already held the name Engel; the brewery then adopted Kortrijk-Dutsel as its identity. That history belongs to the brewery and naming story, not proof of Kortrijk-dUtsel’s launch date. A highly carbonated Belgian specialty beer whose identity is defined by its village name and champagne-like presentation. Kortrijk-Dutsel, Holsbeek, Flemish Brabant, Belgium
