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.

Bière bouteille 33 cl. Nez sur la cerise, bouche pareil, on a vraiment le côté bière double et le côté jus de fruits à la fois. Sympa pour le genre mais je m'en laisserais vite. (M)

Smell- weak, malt, maybe faint Belgian yeast. Foam- thin, weak malt, weak acidic tones, weak hops. Head is huge, white color. Appearance- beer specific, nice bottle cap, unique bottle with markings right on it, I like that also. Clear orange-amber, medium carbonation. From - snifter Taste - malt, some Belgian yeast, faint caramel, some hops, citrus. Generally feels malty, and very acidic and citrusy, not the best tripel for sure, does not work for me. Old score: 2.7 Re-rate half a year later, the label is different, so I thought it's a different beer, but let's see. Head is medium-sized now and disappears fast, also hoppier. This one is a bit cloudy and with more bitter and faint sour tones, but still nothing special in general. Leaving score as is, does feel a bit better than the first time trying it though.

*rating overgezet* Het is een goudgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een moutige wat bloemige geur. De smaak is moutig met tonen van honing en toch ook wat bloemigs.
