Description
19th century land-use plan of the area mentions a brewery owned by a certain Petronnella De Troch.
Even older records indicate that her father, Pieter De Troch, was running a brewery on the same site in the late 18th century. Petronnella married Egidius De Troch and in 1898 their son Louis took the family business over. Louis Married J. De Neve, and their son, also Louis, inherited the brewery and farm in 1936. The same Louis married M.L. Van den Moortel.
Their nephew Jos Raes and his wife M. Vanderhasselt took on the family tradition in 1974 and have been running this rare craft brewery ever since. In 2002, their son Pauwel Raes joined his parents into the family business.
In July 2012 Pauwel & his wife Kristel Schelfthout took over the brewery to continue the brewery tradition !

Lambickx (Wambeek, De Troch) (2013/2015) from Brouwerij De Troch

6.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6.5 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
375ml pours a clear, dark cherry red with some pink clumpy head. Nose is weird. Green vegetable, plastic, some stone fruit, strawberry. Flavor is better, cherry and strawberry, fruit roll up. Jammy finish. A touch thin. Weird. Probably on its last legs.

Clouded crimson red with a small pinkish head. Fresh cherries, cherry jam, funk, distant barnyard. Light to medium sweet, medium sour. Pretty simple. Pretty tasty. Perhaps the best pop kriek I’ve tried.

Fraise Lambic from Brouwerij De Troch
1 year ago
5/10
Women’s Euro beers 4/16 - Belgium 🇧🇪 The strawberry flavor is slightly rancid, and still cloyingly sweet. The bottle was absolutely coated top to bottom with sediment, loads more than a typical lambic. It tastes unnatural and frankly, not good.

Oude Lambik from Brouwerij De Troch

7.5/10
Sample from jerrycan at Carnivale Brettanomyces 2025, John Versyck blending workshop. Didn't take many notes, just enjoyed good beers and good company. What I do remember: 2 years old. Compared with the Jonge Lambik (1 year old) it's more refrehing, softer / smoother, more complex, some more wood.
