Description
De oudere generatie heeft Brouwerij Eylenbosch Huizingen nog gekend.

Mijn familie evolueerde van een seizoensgebonden boerderij-brouwerij uit tot twee geburende ambachten. In de "Teloorgang van de Geuze" is ook deze brouwerij bezweken. Desondanks is het brouwersvuur nog niet gedoofd en rijpen we sinds 1965 terug lambiek op de boerderij. ​

Mijn ambitie is om het boeren en brouwen weer te versmelten. Zo kan ons streekproduct eindelijk weer gemaakt worden met grondstoffen uit onze streek.

No head, and once more a beer looking as peach juice. Nice lambic nose with a bit of apples, turning into cider quickly. Quinces unmistakable in the flavour, along with apples and cider still obvious. Side aroma reminding of felt. Velvety texture, low to medium carbonation, bit (fruit)slick. Let's say far from bad, and finally a glimpse from this elusive relic surviving in the Pajottenland.

21/VIII/21 - 75cl bottle @ Gents Bierfestival (Gent), BB: n/a (2021-938)

Pretty cloudy deep ruby to purple beer, small aery creamy pink head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: nice, lots of krieken (sour cherries), very funky, bitter impression. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very sourish, lot of tannins, sour cherries, acidic, nice stuff! Aftertaste: bit oxidized, cherry pits, some marzipan, acidic, fruity, complex, very nice!

Bottle. Hazy golden-orange color with white head. Aroma is quince, earthy, apples, leather, hay. Taste is apples, quince, a bit rustic, barn, hay. Mealy-ish mouthfeel with low carbonation. Bizarrely dirty, but pretty damn good!

Bottle. Hazy purple color with pink head. Aroma is disinfectant, swimming pool chlorine indeed (probably from the cherry stone?), cherry skin, plums, tobacco and leather. Taste is the same, lemony and acidic finish. Mineraly mouthfeel with sparkly carbonation. To be shared, not to be solo-domed, it's very aggressive.

Bottle. Hazy ruby color with pink head. Aroma is lemony, a touch acetic, marzipan, cherry skin. Taste is the same, on the acetic side, but still drinkable for that. Mineraly lemony finish. Sparkly carbonation. Fun!

Bottle. Unclear ruby color with pink head. Aroma is super cherry, marzipan, juicy, but also a bit simple. Taste is more towards the dry Lambic, not too complex, but very juicy again. Dry finish. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation.

Pours dark pinkred / bordeaux. Fairly unclear (bottle was shaken, to be all honest ) . Small ring of pink head. Scent is full, wet cherry, almond (cherrypits) . Taste is full, intense cherry, swiming pool like aroma ( I always get this in good cherry beers ) . Medium intense sourness; fairly complex. Fuller body, medium carbo. Acidic backbite, lemonsour, lactic, wood. Milder brett, low acetic acid. Very decent !

Edit : drank side by side with the 4 cherry versions released in 2021, as the second one (behind the cherry cider ) . This one is lighter, higher in carbo, less aromatic cherries. Still lovely - not changeing the score - but it's fun to compare .
