Description
Brouwerij 't Koelschip bestaat in principe al sinds 1992 toen brouwmeester Jan Nijboer en zijn vrienden al brouwdemonstraties gaven op locatie. Vanaf 1999 volgt een verhaal van allerlei pogingen een brouwerij te openen, die allen mislukken. In 2005 besluit Jan Nijboer zijn speurtocht naar een geschikte locatie na zovele jaren te staken. Sindsdien brouwt Jan Nijboer op kleine schaal aan de Grace Kellystraat, 1 hl. per brouwsel.

Dark red brown with a lively off-white head. Aroma of brown sugar, chocolate and dried fruits, with strong delicious brett. Dry and slightly tart flavour with strong brett and a little chocolate. Based on the other ratings it’s not infected on purpose, but the result is quite nice.

Bottle 30 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear orangey brown with a beige head. Very lively - a slow gusher. Leathery Brett aroma. Medium body, notes of black currant and dried fruit. Astringent and leathery Brett accents. Clearly another infected Koelschip beer - but somehow they manage to come out quite succesful with their infections! 031009
