Wijnber is a 'old brown ale', inspired by our regio where this style of beer is very well known. There are two classic styles of old brown ale, but Wijnberg is a new variation that is in between the two classic styles. The beer contains one third of young beer and two thirds of 'old' beer, aged for at least two years on wood barrels. For a more complex flavour we add a small amount of Jacobins, an old foederbeer made by brewery Vanderghinste in Bellegem. The end result is a complex balance of flavours between sweet and sour. The beer was named after the neighbourhood where one of the brewers grew up and it also means 'Mountain of Wine', and refers to the wine-like character of the beer.

Sample (thanks omhper!). Deep amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is tart fruits, wood and mild acidity. Flavour is tart fruits, some wooden and mild acidic tones. Smooth, although slightly dry.

Bottle. Beer Merchants. Shared down SMOD. Deep reddy brown. Good off white foam. Nicely jammy. Some sweet balsamic. Dried vine fruit. Taste is lightly sharp and tart. Soft jammy sweetness. Clean and fresh. Whiff of bacteria throughout. Good gear.

Bottle shared at tasting. Dark autumnal red brown color, off-white head. Aroma is...hmm well...hard to describe. Flavor is malts, leaves, sourness, tart-sour-bitter. Drinkable but not my kind of beer.

Bière pression bue au salon de la micro brasserie de Mouscron. Jolie robe couleur chataigne à reflets acajou. Nez acidulé, typique des bières à fermentation spontanée. Bouche bien acidulée, peu sucrée, notes de fûts, de bois, et grosse dose d'acidite qui reste bien équilibrée. Pas mon style mais réussie dans son genre.
