Description
Lange tijd bleef de bierpassie van cartoonist Erwin Vanmol beperkt tot het proeven van kwaliteitsbieren, het thuisbrouwen en het ontwerpen van etiketten voor zowel Belgische als Amerikaanse brouwers. In 2016 vond hij in het Vlaams-Brabantse Eizeringen, vlakbij de oude Frankische dries van ’t Nelleken, een geschikte brouwlocatie en richtte hij de microbrouwerij Vrijstaat Vanmol op.

Tijdens het ontwikkelen van nieuwe recepten en proefbrouwsels wordt Erwin bijgestaan door zijn brouwassistent en vennoot Jan Panneels.

Bottle at ’In de Verzekering tegen de Grote Dorst’. Brewed for the 25th anniversary of the horse statue ’Prins’ on the market square of the town Lennik. Pours hazy yellow with a big, frothy, white head. The aroma contains lots of oat & wheat, barley, some citrus, bitter hops and spices (coriander). It tastes light sweet and medium bitter with a spicy, not too dry finish. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Rather intense Witbier.

6/VIII/17 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: 9/III/19 (2017-1178)

Clear pale yellow beer, big creamy white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: nice citrus touch, malty, cheesy, sweaty feet, pretty smelly. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice fruity start, citrus, grapefruit, nice bitterness, bit floral, some yeast, spicy touch. Aftertaste: hoppy, bit cheesy, resinous bitterness. Probably much better when fresher, but couldn't find it for sale just until now.

Bottle @ Verzekering tegen de Grote Dorst, Eizeringen. Hazy yellow colour, very cloudy. White foam. Very dry, grassy and bitter intense hoppy ale. Reminds me a bit of beers from de la Senne. Very nice and drinkable.

Fra flaske på Mi2 Cardinal april-17: lett uklar lys korngul med højt skum. Myk og saftig aroma og smak med lyse frukter, fin lys maltbase og hint av hvit kandis. Mild bitterhet, halvtørr og svært lettdrikkelig. Heldigvis var der et par slanter igjen på slutten av kvelden, slik at sykkelturen over bybrua ble utført i fin stil!

Bottle at Verzekering. Pours murky pale yellow. Aroma is strongly citric, lightly grassy, soapy. Body is light, strongly hoppy, crisp carbonation, a bit thin, yeasty. Very sessionable, but not enough taste to make it really interesting. Good.
