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 !

A lot better than I imagine. Pineapple and lime on initial smell. Pretty rich on nose. Golden pour with good head and lacing. Light lime type sour finish. Probably better initial smell than follow through. Bottle.

@home poured into a tumbler. Sour woody nose. Clear deep amber colour, thin fizzy off-white head, vanishes in a wink, no lacing. Sour aroma, very woody, apple syrup (rinse appelstroop) brett, light vinegar. Taste medium sweet and light sour, lemony, candy sugar, apple syrup (rinse appelstroop), woody notes. Light body, sticky texture, flat carbonation, medium sweet'n'sour aftertaste, woody and sugary notes, anachronistic feel, really nice.

Hut ab vor diesem interessanten belgischen Fruchtbier. Es ist ein Sauerbier, das aber durch die zugegebene Banane süß schmeckt. Dadurch passt es nicht wirklich in eine Kategorie, aber es hat mir wegen seiner Aromatik und den ausgewogenen Fruchtnoten sehr gut gefallen. Kein Bier, das man einfach so trinkt, aber durchaus zu empfehlen.
