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.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 13/07/2025.
Extremely dark mahogany brown topped with a thin beige cap that forms a swirl mid glass.
Nose is light smoke, charr, dried fruits, burnt toffee.
Taste comprises smoked malts, toffee, dried fruit rinds, toasted brown sugar, quite a big peaty bite.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a spike of alcohol at the curtain call.
Okay peated affair but I've had far better balanced ones of late ... just a little too full on for my liking.

Bursztynowe lekko zamglone piwo z średnią pianą. Aromat pszenicy i przypraw. W smaku podobnie, czegoś brakuje
