Description
Eggens Craft Beer is een aantal jaren terug kleinschalig thuis begonnen. We zijn begonnen met het brouwen van bier op een Braumeister 50 liter, waar we veel geëxperimenteerd hebben met verschillende stijlen. Nadat we hier de smaak goed te pakken hadden, hebben we gekozen om onze bieren grootschalig te brouwen.

Dit zijn we gaan doen als zogeheten huurbrouwer. Op loopafstand van de start, is sinds 2016 Baxbier gevestigd. Na een goed gesprek met Bax hebben we besloten om hier te gaan huurbrouwen. We maken gebruik van hun overcapaciteit, en brouwen ons eigen bier daar in volumes van 2000 – 4000 liter. Dit zijn ten alle tijden eigen recepten, door ons zelf ontwikkeld op kleine schaal.

Aus der Flasche im Sommer 2023 getrunken. Dieses Barley Wine kommt mit kräftigen Röstaromen und einer feine Süße von Trockenfrüchte daher. Die Fassreifung rundet das Bier sehr gut ab und durch die eine leichte Bitterkeit erinnert es an ein English Barley Wine.

Can from Mitra Coevorden. Pretty sweet with ripe fruits, orange, some pine, malt. Medium bitter and sweet. Anything but a Neipa, more like an unremarkable sweet IIPA.

Pours an (almost) clear golden colour and a rocky off white head with good retention. Aroma's of sweet fruit and herbal hops. Retronasal it's sweet, fruity, a bit resinous. Flavour is light moderate sweet and light bitter. Medium bodied. Finishes slightly dry, light moderate bitter. Disappointing, not (at all) true to the style.
