Description
Wat is gestart als een gezamenlijke hobby van Dimitri Verbraekel en Marc Verberckmoes, 2 collega's-vrienden, werd in 2011 Brouwerij 't Kroontje en groeide uit tot een stilaan vaste waarde in het brouwersmilieu en zeker ook in onze gemeente. Na het plotse overlijden van Marc in 2018, ging Dimitri alleen verder met het ontwikkelen en produceren van de Rebellebieren, geheel volgens de stijl waarin de brouwerij oorspronkelijk werd opgestart.

Wij staan voor het artisanaal produceren van bieren van hoge gisting, volledig met natuurlijke producten. Geen toevoegingen van chemische middelen voor ons, enkel puur natuur! Een goed voorbeeld hiervan is ons frambozenbier: geen toegevoegde suikers of smaakversterkers, maar échte verse frambozen werden gebruikt om dit bier te maken. Ook bij het vervaardigen van onze nevenproducten (kaas, pastei en pralines) door anderen, hebben wij er een zwak voor om dit te laten doen door artisanale familiebedrijven die eerder kwaliteit dan kwantiteit leveren.

Thanks. Sampled @ ZBF 2014. Dark brown, thick mocha head. Smells of sweet mocha, basic chocolate, toffee and instant chocolate milk powder. Tastes of mocha, caramel, touch bitter, cheap chocolate and instant chocolate milk. Body feels light for the style. Nice beer but one that pales in comparison with others from the same style.

11/IV/14 - 33cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ home - BB: 28/IX/15 (2014-363)

Clear dark purple brown beer, creamy beige head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: caramel, dried fruits, raisins, sugary, hint of banana, some cocoa powder. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body, thick texture. Taste: very chocolaty start, then alcohol in the nose becomes powerful while drinking, lots of overripe banana, bit sour, dusty, little chemical. Aftertaste: lots of banana, caramel, sugar, way too boozy to be really enjoyable, mocha, bit sourish.

Bouteille 33cl, flip-top, 195/250. Couleur acajou, mousse rosée disparaissant vite. Arôme offre un bouquet rustique de framboise relevant bien ce côté fruité terreux caractéristique de ce fruit. Ajout d’un léger rétro-nasal fleuri. Le malt et houblon sont en retrait. Palais est plein dans le caractère framboise. Notes terreuses et sèches. Le tout gardant une pointe épicée typique de la framboise. Pointe aigrelette. Profil de la bière est un peu trop effervescent. Malt au caractère carapils et au final et malgré les 300gr, une bière assez monodimenssionnelle. Fleuri et poudreux sur la fin.

33 cl. bottle @ home. Procured from Bierhandel Willems en Zoon. BBF 21/09/2014. Good price. Touch amber orange, instantly gone big white bubbles until you are left with nothing. Slightly metallic nose, esters, sticky caramel, very thick syrup-like brown sugar, apple juice. Taste is a mix of maple syrup, brown sugar, spices, bitter esters, something metallic, empty syrup & very overtly boozy, almost like, wth? Higher carb. lightly watery. Bit of a mix of things that I like and didn’t like. At least somewhat interesting.

Bottle @ ansjelaah NYE13. Pink/purple/ruby colour with a small pink head. Smells green twigs, raspberry, wood, brown leafs, some cork. Kinda weird but nice. Tastes sourish, raspberry, cranberry, forrest fruits, fruity, some wood. I’m pretty sure they’ve used real fruits and not a syrup. Medium body, soft body.

33 cl. bottle sampled @ Kerstbierfestival Essen 2013. Dark reddish with a touch brown, tanned head. Nose carries a touch mould, fermenting dark fruits, sweet spices, caramel, pretty sweet. Taste is bitter upfront, something slightly upfront, bitter overripe fruits, herbal, touch dark honey, caramel, pretty sweet. Thicker body, okay but something feels slightly off here for me. RIS & not BSA currently for style?
