As you all know, we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Zinnebir with three specials collabs. Each time we join forces with a brewery that played a significant role in our history. The concept is simple: we rework the recipe of Zinnebir, while adding a little touch that represents the personality of our guest-brewery.
For this second collab, we visited French-Flanders and our friend Daniel Thiriez (to be honest, it was he who actually came to Brussels). We chose Brasserie Thiriez for the same reason as we chose De Ranke. Between 2007 and 2010, Daniel allowed us to use his installations during our gypsy brewing years.
This time we used a different set of hops to brew the recipe: Daniel selected 100% French hops, cultivated by a cooperative called Comptoir Agricole.
The character of Zinnebir was well respected. However, her bitterness is a bit more rustic and she has a different kind of fruitiness. We detect some physalis and different floral, herbal and spicy notes.
