CRAFTSMANSHIP,
KNOWLEDGE & PATIENCE.
The Vander Ghinste family has been brewing since 1892 in the idyllic village of Bellegem with craftsmanship, knowledge and patience as the main ingredients of the brewing process. OMER. Traditional Blond goes through a process of no less than 2 months before the beer arrives at your doorstep.
THE BREWING PROCESS
The combination of the barley malt, the special yeast and the carefully selected hops, create a refined specialty beer of 8% alcohol, with a full taste and a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Hops
While boiling the wort, our master brewers add 3 aromatic hops from the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Germany. The hops provide a fine bitterness and form a beautiful, full and stable head.
Yeast
The yeast of OMER. has a fruity and full-bodied character. Pure in its simplicity, the yeast gives its unique flavour to the golden yellow beer. Besides adding flavour, yeast also ensures that the natural sugars are converted into alcohol and CO2. The entire main fermentation process takes 4-5 days at room temperature.
Time
Before the beer is bottled, it remains in the lagering cellar for 3 weeks. After bottling, there is a secondary fermentation in the bottle for 2 weeks in warm rooms. Finally, the beer rests at room temperature for another 2 weeks.
Passion
Just like the name Omer, the passion and brewing traditions are passed on from father to son.

3
Pour slowly at a45° angle along the sides of the glass.

Once half full, slowly tilt the glass upwards to form the desired foam. Keep 1-2 cm below the edge of the glass.
5
Keep 1 cm of the beer in the bottle (= yeast). Enjoy your delicious OMER.!
