About
Yvan DE BAETS and Bernard LEBOUCQ meet each other in 2002, during the second edition of the Zinnekparade. Bernard had created the now famous ZINNEBIR for this unique Brussels event. However, it took another five years for BRASSERIE DE LA SENNE to settle effectively in the capital. In the meantime, the brewing activities were continued at friendly breweries. This bohemian existence came to an end on December 22, 2010, the date of the very first 100% Brussels brew!

33cl bottle at Bier Circus. Pours dark brown with a red edge and a creamy white head and lacings. Nose is slight roast and full of dark fruits & caramel. Full bodied. Warmth from alcohol. I dont know if its the yeast or the metallic edge that I recognizes from De La Senne. Not that bad though. Overall ok.

Zinnebir Christmas (X-Mas) 2007 from Brasserie de la Senne

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7
clear brown/amber, mild cinnamon aroma, thin tan head does not last long. Flavors of orange, cinnamon, raisins, maybe plum. Thinner and less powerful than most Christmas beers, but still very drinkable. Is the big bad wolf about to have his way with Little Red Riding Hood, with a 750 ml beer bottle, while a Picasso character watches.
