De Dolle Brouwers
Microbrewery
in Diksmuide,
West Flanders,
Belgium 🇧🇪
Associated Venue: De Dolle Brouwers
Established in 1980
We have recently found papers in the archives stating that the first building dates from 1835 AD. Once it was both a brewery and distillery. The founder died in 1882 and the brewery was sold to Alouis Costenoble. The family brewed for three generations until 1980 when the brewery stopped.
Beer brands included COQ PILS OUD BRUIN & COSMOS. In Esen there were six breweries (all small and part-time) and two distilleries. The actual brewer is doing historical research on West-Flanders breweries since 1900 AD, and has got the 'GOLDEN HAMMER' Trophy, a two yearly award for historic research on breweries. This was attributed by vzw 't Hamerken in Bruges on March 27, 2000 AD

Bottle, many thanks berntholer, medium thick bubbly head, quite clear dark orange to lightish brown colour, aroma of yeast, vinous, roots, wood and traces of dust and maltiness. Flavour of fruit, malt and hints of vinegar and wood, hint of sourness and a bit of alcohol coming through. Nice and enjoyable.

Bottle at home. Pours a deeper, brownish copper with an off-white head. Nose is esters, caramel and dark sugar. Taste is dried fruits, berries, fruity esters, dark sugar, light booze, champagne notes, and malty hints in the finish. Sweetish, but the finish is kinda dry. Light to medium bodied with average to high carbonation.

Bottle sample at Billie's. Már az alap sör is túlmutat a klasszik cukros, alkoholos belga jellegen, hiszen az átlagnál jóval testesebb, tartalmasabb a sör, de ami felteszi rá a koronát, az nyilván a hordóérlelés. Olyan gyönyörű csonthéjas, bogyósgyümis, tanninos, kissé funky felhangot kap tőle, hogy az valami csoda. A fesztivál egyik legkellemesebb meglepetése volt, nem gondoltam volna, hogy ennyire jó lesz.

Bottle at home in the spirit of Christmas, cellared this for a year. Pours opaque, orangeish golden with a quickly dissipating head. Nose is spicy, herbal, grapey with bubblegum hints. Taste is sweetish, malty, boozy, estery with surprisingly intense spicy, phenolic hints and hoppy bitterness. Medium bodied with average carbonation.
