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.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ van Rooij, Culemborg.
Dark brown to black with an off-white head. Dark caramel and chocolate aroma, more akin to a stout than a barley wine. Sweet taste with a long boozy finish. Interesting barley wine where the sweetness is replaced by roast. Nice one.

33cl bottle from Valkenburg, can't remember the actual store I bought it from though (it was last year). Poured into my Gordon thistle shaped glass at home on 17th February 2026, Dark and moody looking beer, wispy beige top. Boozy Bourbon nose and taste, soft body feel, liked it.
