Description
Eylenbosch comes back to life in 2019, after almost 30 years of hibernation. Founded in 1886 by Emile Eylenbosch in Schepdaal, the Eylenbosch brewery grew into one of the most important producers of lambic and geuze in the last century, with an absolute high point at the 1958 world expo. Advantage of the industrial lager, and also Eylenbosch closed its doors and stopped production in the early 90s.
But luckily that wasn't the end of the story for this historic brewery. In 2018, Erik De Keersmaeker decided to focus on his passion after a number of other challenges. As the fifth generation of a brewery family from Kobbegem, De Keersmaeker brings the Eylenbosch brewery and its iconic beer back to life. He does this together with the young brewer Klaas Vanderpoorten and study friend Jeroen Lettens. The new Eylenbosch Brewery is dedicated to tradition and authenticity, and will brew its lambic using the traditional method and recipes.

On tap at Billie's Craft Beer Festival. Marzipan, cherry and vinegar notes. Complex, sure not bad, but I'm not really sure about this one. 747413 251107

Pours clear , darker blonde/amber. Small, yet stable white head. Scent is quite powerfull, from a distance, mature and oaky, funky (brett) lambic. Up close, the character seems very 'full' and deep. Taste is Surprisingly harsh in it's dryness, astrigent. Way less full than expected. Oaky, but also less dominant on oak (and age) as the aroma seemingly promissed. Very straight up, acidic, but fairly blank. And, as mentionned, astrigent. This is pretty underwhelming!

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy, orangey golden with a lacing, off-white head. Very spicy, fruity nose. Medium body, a sweet fruitiness, yeasty with quite some phenols (not to an unpleasant degree though) and a decent, finishing hoppiness. 011025
