Description
De naam “Corsendonk” verwijst naar de priorij van Corsendonk, een voormalig augustijner klooster te Oud-Turnhout. De priorij bestond van 1398 tot 1784. Vanaf 1906 werd de brouwerijtraditie van Priorij Corsendonk door Henricus Keersmaekers (de grondlegger van de dynastie) met zijn eigen brouwerij te Oud-Turnhout voortgezet. In 1952 werd gestopt met het zelf brouwen van bier en werd de firma een distributiebedrijf. In 1982 werd op vraag en met de steun van de Oud-Turnhoutse VVV gestart met de productie van Corsendonk-bier.

Het bier wordt van begin af aan gebrouwen door Brouwerij du Bocq. Later is de familie Keersmaeker 100% eigenaar geworden van du Bocq. Dat was een geleidelijk proces waarbij gedurende een periode van 10 jaar elk jaar 10% van de brouwerij werd gelocht. Het was pas in 2014 dat bekend werd gemaakt dat de familie Keersmaeker 100% eigenaar waren van de brouwerij.

Margie noticed this on the huge beer menu in Cafe Botteltje on 22nd October 2024, I'd just skimmed past it thinking it was the regular Corsendonk offering you see all the time in Belgium. Anyway I decided to have a bottle and I'm glad I did. Golden orange body, clean and clear, on top a white crown. Nice, easy going, boozy blonde/tripel.

10 May 2024. At Pampas, Ghent. Cheers to Carl, Clara & Michiel!

A: hazy amber, stable, foamy, off-white head.
A: raisin, ripe red apple, iron, caramel.
T: sweetish raisin, apple pie, caramel, herbs.
F: herbal hops, red fruits, bit metallic, warming liqueur-like alcohol.
P: medium body, slick-watery texture, soft carbonation.
A newish beer, yet so anachronistic. At least it's nostalgic in a way (sigh).

Bottle. An unclear yellow-colored brew with a dense finger-thick white head leaving lacing. The aroma has lots of coriander and citrus, lemon and orange, lime, and a light wheat and pale malt touch. Lightly bready. It's medium bodied and well carbonated, quite dry, with a good bitterness. Spiced, almost Christmasy, citrusy flavor with a nice maltyness. Medium length finish. A decent wit for sure. 240717
